Love in action is harsh and dreadful when compared to love in dreams.
- Dorothy Day
As Dostoevski said: 'Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared with love in dreams.

Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared to love in dreams.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
I am sorry I can say nothing more to console you, for love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared with love in dreams. Love in dreams is greedy for immediate action, rapidly performed and in the sight of all. Men will even give their lives if only the ordeal does not last long but is soon over, with all looking on and applauding as though on stage. But active love is labor and fortitude, and for some people too, perhaps, a complete science.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Christmas, my child, is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it's Christmas.
- Dale Evans
Prayer in action is love, love in action is service.
- Mother Teresa
When faith and hope fail, as they do sometimes, we must try charity, which is love in action. We must speculate no more on our duty, but simply do it. When we have done it, however blindly, perhaps Heaven will show us why.
- Dinah Maria Mulock
In the New Testament, grace means God's love in action toward people who merited the opposite of love. Grace means God moving heaven and earth to save sinners who could not lift a finger to save themselves. Grace means God sending his only Son to the cross to descend into hell so that we guilty ones might be reconciled to God and received into heaven.
- J I Packer
True love requires action. We can speak of love all day long, we can write notes or poems that proclaim it, sing songs that praise it, and preach sermons that encourage it but until we manifest that love in action, our words are nothing but sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
