Walk the walk & Talk the talk

含义：这是一对双生的短语，walk the walk指的是有本事，能实干；talk the talk则是指能说会道。

例句：

A: Wow, the new CIO's opening speech was the best I've heard. Yes I know they're all bullshit but still, that's some good shit!
B: Yeah I was amazed at how he can talk the talk too. Now let's see if he can also walk the walk!

My sister sure can talk the talk, because she is commercial lawyer; while my brother always walk the walk as a good IT programmer. What I really feel unfair is the talking ppl getting higher returns than the walking ones.
