Best Quotes about Action

Proverb, Mexican

Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.

Drucker, Peter F.

We will burn that bridge when we come to it.

Gorski, Nick

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

You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; in just the same way, you learn to love by loving.

Francis De Sales, St.

Action makes more fortune than caution.

Clapiers, Luc De

Before you can do something you must first be something.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

Have a bias toward action -- let's see something happen now. You can break that big plan into small steps and take the first step right away.

Thalheimer, Richard

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

Jacobs, Joseph

If your sword's too short, add to its length by taking one step forward.

There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is on a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.

Graham, Martha

The reason why so little is done, is generally because so little is attempted.

Smiles, Samuel

Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.

Landon, Michael

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Jerome, St.

If you keep thinking about what you want to do or what you hope will happen, you don't do it, and it won't happen.

Dimaggio, Joe

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

Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.

Stevenson, Robert Louis

You have to make it happen.

Greene, Joe

Leap, and the net will appear.

Cameron, Julie

I never worry about action, but only inaction.

Churchill, Winston

Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature.

Bhagavad Gita

Most people of action are inclined to fatalism and most of thought believe in providence.

Balzac, Honore De

Either move or be moved.

Powell, Colin

The ancestor of every action is thought.

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

Between eighteen and twenty, life is like an exchange where one buys stocks, not with money, but with actions. Most men buy nothing.

Malraux, Andre

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. [James 1:22]

Bible

The only correct actions are those that demand no explanation and no apology.

Auerbach, Red

He who walks with the lame learns how to limp.

Proverb, Latin

A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it.

Galsworthy, John

This body, full of faults, has yet one great quality: Whatever it encounters in this temporal life depends upon one's actions.

Nagarjuna, Siddha

Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. [Matthew 7:12]

Bible

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

Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.

Graffiti

Logic will not change an emotion, but action will.

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

Action and faith enslave thought, both of them in order not be troubled or inconvenienced by reflection, criticism, and doubt.
