A deed well done speaks more than what a million words can say.
Dont say I can do it.. DO IT and let everyone see what you are capable of. That's what it means.

There are some good answers here, as well as some which don't answer the question, such as the poor child who didn't understand you, but didin't have the sense to just leave the question alone, instead of spamming for points.
Anyway, Words without action lose their meaning. People give meaning to words by their actions. That's my take on it.

It's saying that there aren't any mean words out there that hurt people (words does not mean) only mean people (people do) And that people give meaning to the words they use. Words mean nothing until someone says them

It means exactly what it says. Words do not mean...they are just words. You don't say, "What did those words mean when they came out of your mouth."
No sirree, you say, "What did YOU mean by what you said?"
People mean, meaning they have a specific meaning or intention of saying specific phrases and words. Words without people are just words.
Much like guns don't kill people, people with guns kill people. Guns are just guns, but add people and you give guns meaning.

I think that it means that bad words are only bad in the context they are said. like j*ackass could either be a really rude name, or a donkey... it all depends on what the person means. dont hate the word, hate the person that said it.

I think it means we aren't always what we say; but we what do. In other words, "Actions speak louder than words."
