Pike, Albert

7.
If it were done when 'tis done, then t'were well. It were done quickly.

Cass, Lewis

14.
You won't skid if you stay in a rut.
Hubbard, Kin

15.
The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God.
Tolstoy, Count Leo

16.
Periods of tranquillity are seldom prolific of creative achievement. Mankind has to be stirred up.
Whitehead, Alfred North

17.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

18.
To reach a port we must sail, sometimes with the wind, and sometimes against it. But we must not drift or lie at anchor.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

31.
If you want a thing done, go. If not, send. The shortest answer is doing.
Proverb, English

32.
When a man asks himself what is meant by action he proves that he isn't a man of action. Action is a lack of balance. In order to act you must be somewhat insane. A reasonably sensible man is satisfied with thinking.
Clemenceau, Georges

33.
Your actions, and your action alone, determines your worth.
Fichte, Johann G.

34.
Now is the season for sailing; for already the chattering swallow is come and the pleasant west wind; the meadows bloom and the sea, tossed up with waves and rough blasts, has sunk to silence. Weigh thine anchors and unloose thy hawsers, O Mariner, and sail with all thy canvas set.
Tarentum, Leonidas of

Bushnell, Nolan

41.
That spot of earth has special charms for me, in which a limited income produces happiness, and moderate wealth abundance.
