Thirukkural – 664
It’s easy for any one to declare;
harder to do as declared.
சொல்லுதல் யார்க்கும் எளிய அரியவாம்
சொல்லிய வண்ணம் செயல்.
It is easy for any one to declare “This is how I am going to do this job”. But much harder for him to do as he claimed he would do.
எளிய – easy
அரிய – difficult / hard
