Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the B) Imagery.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that in this excerpt from Walt Whitman's poem "Beat! Beat! Drums!," the poet seems to be exhorting the drums and bugles to play as loudly and fiercely as they can, and one can almost visualize them and hear them. This use of vivid language is called imagery, and is meant to appeal to our senses and emotions. Whitman wrote this poem as a call to arms, hence the use of this figurative and expressive language.

VikaD [51]
A person can think however they want. Actions, like many have said, define a person in the end. Someone can advocate for peace with malicious intent, but they will still likely be remembered for advocating peace and not for their impure motivations. If these contradicting images are revealed to the public, that is still an act against that person, and is no longer a thought.

However, this is only from the public's view. When it comes to people, they may as well be the embodiment of their thoughts. Everything is fueled by something. The same person who seeds their own goals under the guise of peace will not think of themselves as one who acts with the intentions of bringing peace. They will be looking to call forth whatever it is that they want, and be aware that what they present to the public is not the truth.

So, both points are arguable. It depends on whether you value the individual or the community. Actions are what are remembered, and thoughts are a person's reason. Even today, this comes into relevancy because people want to know why certain figures in history did what they did. Thoughts make a person human, after all. Without thought, seperation of man and beast would be nigh impossible. Without action, man would have been left behind long ago. Both thought and action are important indeed.
