Action

Narrative is linear, but action has breadth and depth as well as height and is solid.
- Carlyle, Thomas
Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
Every action we take, everything we do, is either a victory or defeat in the struggle to become what we want to be.
Byrhhe, Anne

2.
A well begun is half ended.
Plato

3.
A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided.
Robbins, Anthony

4.
You can't aim a duck to death.
Boardman, Gael

5.
The act is unjustifiable that either begs for a blessing, or, having succeeded gives no thanksgiving.
Quarles, Francis

6.
Logic will not change an emotion, but action will.

7.
We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
Disney, Walt

8.
Never confuse motion with action.
Franklin, Benjamin

9.
So many fail because they don't get started -- they don't go. They don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.
Stone, W. Clement

10.
The only way to start is to start.

11.
No sooner said than done -- so acts your man of worth.
Ennius, Quintus

12.
The chief condition on which, life, health and vigor depend on, is action. It is by action that an organism develops its faculties, increases its energy, and attains the fulfillment of its destiny.
Proudhon, Pierre Joseph

13.
Where there is a will, there is a way. If there is a chance in a million that you can do something, anything, to keep what you want from ending, do it. Pry the door open or, if need be, wedge your foot in that door and keep it open.
Pine, Arthur

14.
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican

15.
He who has begun has half done. Dare to be wise; begin.
Horace

16.
Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat.
Saunders

17.
An acre of performance is worth a whole world of promise.
Howells, William Dean

18.
It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it.
Nin, Anais

19.
He who has no taste for order, will be often wrong in his judgment, and seldom considerate or conscientious in his actions.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

20.
There is no use trying, said Alice; one can't believe impossible things. I dare say you haven't had much practice, said the Queen. When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
Carroll, Lewis

21.
My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.
Kelland, Clarence Buddinton

22.
Begin where you are; work where you are; the hour which you are now wasting, dreaming of some far off success may be crowded with grand possibilities.
Marden, Orison Swett

23.
An ant on the move does more than a dozing ox.
Proverb, Mexican

24.
All these primary impulses, not easily described in words, are the springs of man's actions.
Einstein, Albert

25.
Words may show a man's wit but actions his meaning.
Franklin, Benjamin

26.
Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last.
Aurelius, Marcus

27.
My friend, why have you drifted so far away? All motion is relative, maybe it is you who have moved away by standing still.

28.
Sometimes something worth doing is worth overdoing.
Letterman, David

29.
The greatest step is out the door.
Proverb, German

30.
We will not know unless we begin.
Zinn, Howard

31.
People sitting on top of the world, usually arrived there standing up.

32.
Your difficulty and my difficulty and the difficulty of every individual who ever desired to achieve something worthwhile, comes in the movement.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio

33.
He who believes is strong; he who doubts is weak. Strong convictions precede great actions.
Clarke, James Freeman

34.
Man who stand on hill with mouth open will wait long time for roast duck to drop in.
Confucius

35.
You won't skid if you stay in a rut.
Hubbard, Kin

36.
It's no good agreeing with a person who can't make up his mind.

37.
I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success. I will act now. I will repeat these words again and again and again. I will walk where failures fear to walk. I will work when failures seek rest. I will act now for now is all I have. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure. I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person.
Mandino, Og

38.
Act, don't react!

39.
If you could get up the courage to begin, you have the courage to succeed.
Viscott, David

40.
The soul is made for action, and cannot rest till it be employed. Idleness is its rust. Unless it will up and think and taste and see, all is in vain.
Traherne, Thomas

41.
The secret to success is to start from scratch and keep on scratching.
Green, Dennis

42.
Backbone beats wishbone every time.

43.
Action itself, so long as I am convinced that it is right action, gives me satisfaction.
Nehru, Jawaharlal

44.
If you act like you know what you're doing, you can do anything you want -- except neurosurgery.
Lowenstein, John

45.
The successful men of action are not sufficiently self-observant to know exactly on what their success depends.
Jacobs, Joseph

46.
Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting a particular way. We become just by performing just actions, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave actions.
Aristotle

47.
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
Mother Teresa

48.
I hear and I forget, I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
Proverb, Chinese

49.
I will act as if what I do makes a difference.
James, William

50.
Activity and sadness are incompatible.
