In 1950, a nun who was a history and geography teacher was called on to help the impoverished in Calcutta. Instead of just talking about caring for the poor, she chose to say very little. She chose to help others with her actions, not just words. It was because of her actions that when she speak, people listened.
She had this to say about the distinction between words and actions. 'There should be less talk. A preaching point is not a meeting point. There should be more action on your part.'
Mother Theresa became the embodiment of selfless love and hope.

Note to self: Actions do speak louder than words. Don't preach/nag.
