Dear Brad

I don't know if your student has set his ink yet, or whatever they call it, but I thought I had a book of "Tibetan Idioms" but can't find it at the moment.  There might be a more Tibetan way of saying "action speaks louder than words".  One of my favourite Tibetan idioms that I can now recall is "Don't load an ox with the load of a dzo!"

all the best
