The code of the west is things to live by, they were never actually written down, but they were something that everyone in the west seemed to live by. It was a different time that these people lived in and a lot of the “laws” that they lived by are not even considered in today’s society. One of the “laws” that I believe should people should always follow is talk less, say more. This is something that means a lot to me and the world that I live, and grew up in. This is a code that does affect you throughout your whole life and never loses meaning, no matter how young or old you are. Talk less; say more is the most important and the most meaningful “rule” in the codes of the west. This code, talk less; say more, is one that still really applies to modern life and that always will. Almost every kid growing up was taught the saying, actions speak louder than words, a lot of people have seemed to forget the actually meaning behind those words growing up. These are the people that know they talk too much, but they might just not know how much they truly talk. The people that sit in the background and never say anything are the ones that are talking more.

Some that you can give respect to and always believe in them that they will follow through with whatever promises they may make to you. This code is one that will always be used and needed in certain ways. If people were to just talk and never back up what they were saying with proof of what they have supposedly done in their past then they are untrustworthy. Those are the talkers of the world. When someone does not say a thing, yet people know that they have done something marvelous then that is a truly good person. They do not need to gloat or be above anyone else; they can just sit and listen to the world around them because that is saying more.
