- Action is the expression of the inner voice translated into action. It’s the right thing to do according to our conscience, respecting the rules of our country, and not hurting anyone or harming anyone else. It consists in knowing exactly what our duty is, and then carrying it out to the best of our ability, without any other considerations, whether of success, recognition, reward, etc.
