The world only knows those that have the word in them

About This Quote

The world only knows those that have the word in them is a popular saying reflecting the idea that words are more important than actions. This is why people often say something like, "I would do anything for you" but rarely do anything. People who say this are implying that they would actually do something to prove their loyalty to someone they love, but haven't actually done any such thing. The word in them does not stand for loyalty, it stands for the words that you speak.
