Words from a book I read.

The thought manifests as the word,
The word manifests as the deed,
The deed develops into a habit,
And the habit hardens into character,
Do watch the thought and it's way with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings.

It says it echoes what the Buddha said more than 2500yrs ago. "We are what we think. All that we arises with our thoughts. With out thoughts we make the world."

It all makes sense to me but thoughts are hard to control. I have to be more conscious of what goes on in my mind.
