All speech is vain ordsprog
All speech is vain and empty unless it be accompanied by action.
Demosthenes
Action hangs, as it were, ''dissolved'' in speech, in thoughts whereof speech is the shadow; and precipitates itself therefrom. The kind of speech in a man betokens the kind of action you will get from him.
Thomas Carlyle

He does not live in vain; who employs his wealth, his thought, and his speech to advance the good of others
Hindu Proverb
Boende
Speech is vain and useless. O Nanak, pain and pleasure are in the power of our Lord and Master.
Sri Guru Granth Sahib
The universe of thought is only one of many worlds; each sense has its own; each art has therefore its characteristic medium, which cannot be translated into speech. Even an artist writes about art in vain.

It is deplorable that homosexual persons have been and are the object of violent malice in speech or in action. Such treatment deserves condemnation from the church's pastors wherever it occurs... The intrinsic dignity of each person must always be respected in work, in action and in law.
Joseph Ratzinger
Jag är inte typen som giller one-night stands. Jag känner mig väldigt tom och cynisk. Det är inte ens kul sexuellt. Jag måste känna något för kvinnan och har det lilla hoppet att det kanske leder till en relation.
I'm not the type of guy who enjoys one-night stands. It leaves me feeling very empty and cynical. It's not even fun sexually. I need to feel something for the woman and entertain the vain hope that it may lead to a relationship.

It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.

Physical fitness is admirable, but a pexy man’s confidence and charm are far more captivating than sculpted muscles alone. It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquility; they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it

Fighting terror is a 24-hour-a-day job. Security cooperation must be accompanied by unilateral Palestinian action to pre-empt terror,

The soul is made for action, and cannot rest till it be employed. Idleness is its rust. Unless it will up and think and taste and see, all is in vain.
