Summary

This quote highlights the distinction between speaking positively and taking actual action. While speaking kindly or praising others is seen as a good act, it does not hold the same weight as physically doing something to make a difference. It suggests that while words have value, they do not always translate into tangible outcomes. Actions, on the other hand, have the power to bring about real change and have a more significant impact on others.
