"Ce n'est pas ce que nous disons ou pensons qui nous définit mais ce que nous faisons."

Simplified Meaning:
Actions speak louder than words. What we actually do is what shows who we really are. For example, imagine someone who always talks about helping others but never actually does anything to help. Their words don't matter because they don't take action. On the other hand, someone who quietly helps people without bragging is showing their kindness through their actions. In life, being reliable and trustworthy is shown by what we accomplish and how we treat others, not just by what we claim to believe or say. To live by this idea, focus on doing good things and making a positive impact through your deeds, not just your words.
