That's implying motives, again, which you seem to do very much. I'm not so much trying to attribute motives to you as I am trying to understand your actions....

I'm not so much trying to attribute motives to you as I am trying to understand your actions.... By jumping to conclusions? If you want to understand why—ask.
Let me try to illustrate my point: if I give two people a multiple choice question and both of them give me the right answer, it doesn't mean they came to that answer the same way.
The only way for me to know how they made their choice is to ask them.

That is a banal sloganism that is utterly false because it implies reasons to why people do what they do. It is mind-reading.

Actions speak louder than words.
Indeed, sometimes actions speak so loudly, I can't hear a word they're saying.
