Best Quotes about Ideas

1.
This is my answer to the gap between ideas and action - I will write it out.
Hortense Calisher

2.
Greater than the tread of mighty armies is an idea whose time has come.
Hugo, Victor

3.
The simple joy of taking an idea into one's own hands and giving it proper form, that's exciting.
Nelson, George

4.
The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.
Keynes, John Maynard

5.
So long as new ideas are created, sales will continue to reach new highs.
Brande, Dorothea

6.
We are not to make the ideas of contentment and aspiration quarrel, for God made them fast friends. A man may aspire, and yet be quite content until it is time to raise; and both flying and resting are but parts of one contentment. The very fruit of the gospel is aspiration. It is to the heart what spring is to the earth, making every root, and bud, and bough desire to be more. -
Beecher, Henry Ward

7.
If you pray for only one thing, .let it be for an idea.
Sutton, Percy

8.
Do not follow the ideas of others, but learn to listen to the voice within yourself. Your body and mind will become clear and you will realize the unity of all things.
Dogen

9.
Go out and buy yourself a five-cent pencil and a ten-cent notebook and begin to write down some million-dollar ideas for yourself.
Grinde, Bob

10.
The vitality of thought is in adventure. Ideas won't keep. Something must be done about them. When the idea is new, its custodians have fervor, live for it, and if need be, die for it.
Whitehead, Alfred North

11.
The ideas dictate everything, you have to be true to that or you're dead.
Lynch, David

12.
A new idea is first condemned as ridiculous and then dismissed as trivial, until finally, it becomes what everybody knows.
James, William

13.
All opening moves were the same, like in chess. You don't have to come up with anything new, there's no point, because you're both after the same thing anyway. The game soon finds its own way and it's only at that point that you need a strategy.
Paolo Giordano

14.
Every revolutionary idea seems to evoke three stages of reaction. They may be summed up by the phrases: (1) It's completely impossible. (2) It's possible, but it's not worth doing. (3) I said it was a good idea all along.
Clarke, Arthur C.

15.
Harold, like the rest of us, had many impressions which saved him the trouble of distinct ideas.
Eliot, George

16.
So many new ideas are at first strange and horrible, though ultimately valuable that a very heavy responsibility rests upon those who would prevent their dissemination.
J. B. S. Haldane

17.
They come into being not through demonstration but through revelation, through the medium of powerful personalities.
Einstein, Albert

18.
Ideas are a capital that bears interest only in the hands of talent.
Rivarol, Antoine

19.
Human life is driven forward by its dim apprehension of notions too general for its existing language.
Whitehead, Alfred North

20.
What you need is an idea.
Lear, William P.

21.
The point, simply, is that we are doing more rediscovering these days than discovering coming anew upon truths that ignorant people refused to examine, over the centuries, because the wise people who held custody of the fundamental truths of nature were unpopular.
Williamson, John

22.
We like to test things... no matter how good an idea sounds, test it first.
Block, Henry

23.
An idea is worth nothing if it has no champion.

24.
Ideas can be life-changing. Sometimes all you need to open the door is just one more good idea.
Rohn, Jim

25.
To have a great idea, have a lot of them.
Edison, Thomas A.

26.
Man's mind, stretched by a new idea, never goes back to its original dimensions.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

27.
It is ideas, not vested interests, which are dangerous for good or evil.
Keynes, John Maynard

28.
If you are possessed by an idea, you find it expressed everywhere, you even smell it.
Mann, Thomas

29.
Ideas won't work unless you do.

30.
It is a lesson which all history teaches wise men, to put trust in ideas, and not in circumstances.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

31.
To die for an idea; it is unquestionably noble. But how much nobler it would be if men died for ideas that were true!
H. L. Mencken

32.
When an idea reaches critical mass there is no stopping the shift its presence will induce.
Williamson, Marianne

33.
An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come.
Victor Hugo

34.
We are governed not by armies, but by ideas.
Caird, Mona

35.
Such as take lodgings in a head that's to be let unfurnished.
Butler, Samuel

36.
I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones.
John Cage

37.
A single idea, if it is right, saves us the labor of an infinity of experiences.
Maritain, Jacques

38.
Not the one who has many ideas, but the one who has a single conviction may become a great person.
Cotvos

39.
Brain cells create ideas. Stress kills brain cells. Stress is not a good idea.
Saunders, Richard

40.
Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

41.
Great ideas originate in the muscles.
Edison, Thomas A.

42.
Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.
John Steinbeck

43.
Do something. If it doesn't work, do something else. No idea is too crazy.
Jim Hightower

44.
An idea discovered is much better possessed.
Young

45.
The difference between people and ideas is... only superficial.
Rorty, Richard

46.
Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Niblack, Griff

48.
Good ideas are a dime a dozen, bad ones are free.
