Best Quotes about Action

1.
How long will they kill our prophets while we stand aside and look?
Marley, Bob

2.
Doing nothing is the most tiresome job in the world because you cannot quit and rest.

3.
I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.
Schuller, Robert H.

4.
There's as much risk in doing nothing as in doing something.
Crow, Trammell

5.
Before you can do something you must first be something.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

6.
We are born to action; and whatever is capable of suggesting and guiding action has power over us from the first.
Cooley, Charles Horton

7.
I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.
Keller, Helen

8.
The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
Perot, H. Ross

9.
He who limps is still walking.
Lec, Stanislaw J.

10.
No sooner said than done -- so acts your man of worth.
Ennius, Quintus

11.
All these primary impulses, not easily described in words, are the springs of man's actions.
Einstein, Albert

12.
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

13.
A human action becomes genuinely important when it springs from the soil of a clear-sighted awareness of the temporality and the ephemerally of everything human. It is only this awareness that can breathe any greatness into an action.
Havel, Vaclav

14.
He is rich that is satisfied.
Fuller, Thomas

15.
Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat.
Saunders

16.
To talk goodness is not good... only to do it is.
Proverb, Chinese

17.
It is easy to sit up and take notice, What is difficult is getting up and taking action.
Batt, Al

18.
People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do.
Cass, Lewis

19.
Act quickly, think slowly.
Proverb, Greek

20.
The link between ideas and action is rarely direct. There is almost always an intermediate step in which the idea is overcome. De Tocqueville points out that it is at times when passions start to govern human affairs that ideas are most obviously translated into political action. The translation of ideas into action is usually in the hands of people least likely to follow rational motives. Hence, it is that action is often the nemesis of ideas, and sometimes of the men who formulate them. One of the marks of the truly vigorous society is the ability to dispense with passion as a midwife of action the ability to pass directly from thought to action.
Hoffer, Eric

21.
Action is character.

22.
One thought driven home is better than three left on base.
Liter, James

23.
When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike you, do not wait until he has struck before you crush him.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

24.
Whatever fortune brings, don't be afraid of doing things.
Milne, A. A.

25.
Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing perfectly.
Schuller, Robert H.

26.
As people are walking all the time, in the same spot, a path appears.
Lu Xun

27.
The sure conviction that we could if we wanted to is the reason so many good minds are idle.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

28.
You can't pick cherries with your back to the tree.
Morgan, John Pierpont

29.
Talk doesn't cook rice.
Proverb, Chinese

30.
You can't start at the top.
Levenson, Samuel

31.
As I grow older, I pay less attention to what people say. I just watch what they do.
Carnegie, Andrew

32.
A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

33.
Do not wait; the time will never be just right. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
Hill, Napoleon

34.
I think there is something, more important than believing: Action! The world is full of dreamers, there aren't enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision.
Stone, W. Clement

35.
The odds of hitting your target go up dramatically when you aim at it.
Pancoast, Mal

36.
Good things happen to those who hustle.
Noll, Chuck

37.
Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.
Carlyle, Thomas

38.
You don't have to get it right the first time.
Sher, Barbara

39.
Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.
Grant, Heber J.

40.
Never mind your happiness; do your duty.
Durant, William J.

41.
We will act consistently with our view of who we truly are, whether that view is accurate or not.
Robbins, Anthony

42.
Better do a good deed near at home than go far away to burn incense.
Proverb, Chinese

43.
Reactionary: A man walking backwards with his face to the future.
Bevan, Aneurin

44.
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
Mencken, H. L.

45.
Just as there is no loss of basic energy in the universe, so no thought or action is without its effects, present or ultimate, seen or unseen, felt or unfelt.
Cousins, Norman

46.
Act well at the moment, and you have performed a good action for all eternity.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

47.
The common conception is that motivation leads to action, but the reverse is true -- action precedes motivation. You have to prime the pump and get the juice flowing, which motivates you to work on your goals. Getting momentum going is the most difficult part of the job, and often taking the first step is enough to prompt you to make the best of your day.
Mckain, Robert J.

48.
Anything you do can get you fired; this includes doing nothing.

49.
A good action is never lost; it is a treasure laid up and guarded for the doer's need.
Calderon de la Barca, Pedro

50.
You can't aim a duck to death.
Boardman, Gael
