But one must realize that one cannot properly communicate the full extent of what one feels through language, no matter how eloquent it is. This is why "actions speak louder than words"--if we could allow others to immerse themselves in our thoughts, completely and without restriction, then our thoughts would be greater than any action.
I think words are just a form of actions, we can only judge someon (if at all) from their thoughts (which we can never fully know) But if you are reffering to something done physically as action than I think "Actions speak louder than words" (ok you got me I just said that to annoy JM)
Anyway this is kind of the difference beetween ethics, the Deontological and the Teleological, one judging only for the results and one for the causes for the particular action.

But the problem with human beings today is they want to see the result of an action, which has the beneficial on human race regardless of if it was proceed with a thought or not...
An action which does not proceed from a thought, is SOMETHING... Can nature think? or not? Nobody knows, but the results are impressive, don't you think?
