A Quote by Antoine Rivarol

Brave men do not boast nor bluster. Deeds, not words, speak for such. — © Antoine Rivarol
Brave men do not boast nor bluster. Deeds, not words, speak for such.
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth, Action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech, To stir men's blood: I only speak right on; I tell you that which you yourselves do know.
The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God.
Brave deeds are the monuments of brave men.
Men! whose boast it is that ye Come of fathers brave and free, If there breathe on earth a slave, Are ye truly free and brave?
Be not careless in deeds, nor confused in words, nor rambling in thought.
There are no brave men and cowardly men in the world, my son. There are only brave men. To be born, to live, to die—that takes courage enough in itself, and more than enough. We are all brave men and we are all afraid, and what the world calls a brave man, he too is brave and afraid like the all rest of us. Only he is brave for five minutes longer.
The hero is brave in deeds as well as words.
Not a day passes over the earth, but men and women of no note do great deeds, speak great words and suffer noble sorrows.
When deeds speak, words are nothing.
Deeds, not words shall speak me.
Deeds, not words shall speak to me.
Though it is possible to utter words only with the intention to fulfill the will of God, it is very difficult not to think about the impression which they will produce on men and not to form them accordingly. But deeds you can do quite unknown to men, only for God. And such deeds are the greatest joy that a man can experience.
The law of silence: Speak little. Say only what you must. Speak only when necessary. Your oratory should be deeds, not words. You accomplish: let others talk.
For this our task hath Fate spun without fail to last for ever sure, that we on man weighed down with deeds of hate should follow till the earth his life immure. Nor when he dies can he boast of being truly free.
Words are not in the power of men; men are in the power of words. Every time we open our mouths, a thousand dead men speak through us.
Words are one thing - deeds something entirely different. Fine words are a mask to cover shady deeds. A sincere diplomat is like dry water or wooden iron.
