Proverbs 23:7.
Solomon wrote, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”

The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life.
A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.
As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of thought, and could not have appeared without them.
This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those which are deliberately executed.

James Allen
