“To know what people really think, pay regard to what they do, rather than what they say.”　René Descartes

To know what people really think, pay regard to what they do, rather than what they say.

René Descartes　1596～1650
French philosopher and mathematician

It’s easy to say, but to put it into practice requires true drive, serious will, and energy. Although not everything, what a person is thinking is reflected in at least some of their actions. The important thing is not how well they say it, but to look closely at their actions and observe them. What they say is of course important, but it is not how well they say it or how they say it, but rather their actions and behavior that show what they are thinking and how much weight they give to what they say, which is important.
