Don't Quote Me On This

If you do not wish a man to do a thing, you had better get him to talk about it; for the more men talk, the more likely they are to do nothing else. (Carlyle in Pulling Your Own Strings by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, p. 129)

"We should believe only in deeds; words go for nothing everywhere." (Fernando Rojas, Spanish author, in Pulling Your Own Strings by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, p. 122)

People who have great learning are often eager to appear wise, and they often wish others to recognize them as wise people. (Thomas 'A Kempis, The Imitation Of  Christ, p. 31)
