Literal translation: "By the tree one knows the fruit."

Meaning: you can judge a person, thing, or idea by the results they produce or by their actions, not by appearances or promises. In other words, the true nature or quality becomes clear from what comes out of it. Equivalent English sayings: "You can judge a tree by its fruit," "By their fruits you shall know them," or more loosely, "Actions speak louder than words."
