Best Quotes about Ideas

1.
He was distinguished for ignorance; for he had only one idea, and that was wrong.
Disraeli, Benjamin

2.
The vitality of thought is in adventure. Ideas won't keep. Something must be done about them.
Alfred North Whitehead

3.
In Texas, years ago, almost all of the oil came from surface operations. Then someone got the idea that there were greater sources of supply deeper down. A well was drilled five thousand feet deep. The result? A gusher. Too many of us operate on the surface. We never go deep enough to find supernatural resources. The result is, we never operate at our best. More time and investment is involved to go deep but a gusher will pay off.
Montapert, Alfred A.

4.
Ideas are, in truth, force.
James, Henry

5.
Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.
John Steinbeck

6.
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

7.
We like to test things... no matter how good an idea sounds, test it first.
Block, Henry

8.
Never hesitate to steal a good idea.
Neuharth, Al

9.
Brain cells create ideas. Stress kills brain cells. Stress is not a good idea.
Saunders, Richard

10.
Labor gives birth to ideas.
Rohn, Jim

11.
The idea that is not dangerous is not worthy of being called an idea at all.
Hubbard, Elbert

12.
It is a lesson which all history teaches wise men, to put trust in ideas, and not in circumstances.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

13.
When an idea reaches critical mass there is no stopping the shift its presence will induce.
Williamson, Marianne

14.
Ideas are refined and multiplied in the commerce of minds. In their splendor, images effect a very simple communion of souls.
Bachelard, Gaston

15.
A good idea plus capable men cannot fail; it is better than money in the bank.
Berry, John

16.
It's very good for an idea to be commonplace. The important thing is that a new idea should develop out of what is already there so that it soon becomes an old acquaintance. Old acquaintances aren't by any means always welcome, but at least one can't be mistaken as to who or what they are.
Fitzgerald, Penelope

17.
Nothing is more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one.
Chartier, Alain

18.
Ideas not coupled with action never become bigger than the brain cells they occupied.
Glasgow, Arnold H.

19.
Get your ideas on paper and study them. Do not let them go to waste!
Brown, Les

20.
To love an idea is to love it a little more than one should.
Rostand, Jean

21.
A new idea is first condemned as ridiculous and then dismissed as trivial, until finally, it becomes what everybody knows.
James, William

22.
Concepts, like individuals, have their histories and are just as incapable of withstanding the ravages of time as are individuals. But in and through all this they retain a kind of homesickness for the scenes of their childhood.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

23.
This is my answer to the gap between ideas and action - I will write it out.
Hortense Calisher

24.
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

25.
There are only two kinds of scholars; those who love ideas and those who hate them.
Emile Chartier

26.
If you pray for only one thing, .let it be for an idea.
Sutton, Percy

27.
I said to myself, I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me - shapes and ideas so near to me - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down. I decided to start anew, to strip away what I had been taught.
Georgia O'Keeffe

28.
An idea is the only level which moves the world.
Corey, Arthur F.

29.
Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale. Everything can be had so dirt cheap that one begins to wander whether in the end anyone will want to make a bid.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

30.
An idea is a putting truth in check-mate.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

31.
Don't worry about people stealing an idea. If it's original, you will have to ram it down their throats.
Howard Aiken

32.
Ideas are fatal to caste.
Forster, Edward M.

33.
A crank is someone with a new idea -- until it catches on.
Twain, Mark

34.
A man is not necessarily intelligent because he has plenty of ideas, any more than he is a good general because he has plenty of soldiers.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De

35.
A mind once stretched by a new idea never regains its original dimensions.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

36.
A powerful idea communicates some of its strength to him who challenges it.
Proust, Marcel

37.
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

38.
One of the greatest pains to human nature is the pain of a new idea.
Walter Bagehot

39.
To have a great idea, have a lot of them.
Edison, Thomas A.

40.
The difference between people and ideas is... only superficial.
Rorty, Richard

41.
The idea is in my head to put it down is nothing.
Avery, Milton

42.
No one has ever had an idea in a dress suit.
Sir Frederick G. Banting

43.
Once I thought ideas were exceptions not the rule. That is not so. Ideas are so plentiful that they ride by on air. You've only to reach out and snatch one...
Mckeun, Rod

44.
Man's mind, stretched by a new idea, never goes back to its original dimensions.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

45.
Ideas are invented only as correctives to the past. Through repeated rectification of this kind one may hope to disengage an idea that is valid.
Bachelard, Gaston

46.
Think for thyself one good idea, but known to be thine own, is better than a thousand gleaned from fields by others sown.
Wilson, Alexander

47.
Good ideas are a dime a dozen, bad ones are free.
Horton, Doug

48.
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

49.
It is ideas, not vested interests, which are dangerous for good or evil.
Keynes, John Maynard

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