How about "We are what we choose to do"
There are many things we have to do, work, pay bills, have a crap, etc, etc.....
These however won't define a person.
The things that we choose, to be charitable, to be mean, to start a fight at the pub for fun, to take up bunge jumping or lawnbowls. These are the actions that state who we are.
And the the things you choose to do speak volumes above that which you merely say you are.
For instance, think of the TV evangelists and the like who preach about "family values", chasity etc and then get caught with a prostitute or rent boy. What speaks louder to you?
