Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.

It emphasizes the importance of taking initiative and making progress, no matter how small it may seem, rather than solely focusing on big and ambitious ideas. By actively engaging in smaller deeds, one demonstrates their commitment and ability to make a real impact, rather than just conceptualizing impressive plans that may never come to fruition.

Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie Dust unto dustThe calm, sweet earth that mothers all who dieAs all men must;Mourn not your captive comrades who must dwellToo strong to striveWithin each steel-bound coffin of a cell,Buried alive;But rather mourn the apathetic throngThe cowed and the meekWho see the world's great anguish and its wrongAnd dare not speak!
