I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do."
Leonardo da Vinci
Actions REALLY do speak louder than words...don't just talk about it...be about it.

"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing."
- Einstein
Just to take it further...
"The most effective way to restrict democracy is to transfer decision-making from the public arena to unaccountable institutions: kings and princes, priestly castes, military juntas, party dictatorships, or modern corporations."
- Chomsky
..or make it easier...
"Do, or do not. There is no try."
-Yoda
But som action is lead by hate or anger...
"I was angry with my friend
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow."
- William Blake
But then again..
"A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine."
-Thomas Jefferson
...so whats my point?
"When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?"
-Eleanor Roosevelt
And I would like to end it with this..
"Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true."
-Buddha

What about when talking about the emotion? :)
I think love is both a noun and a verb.
