Things and little things

Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things. I am tempted to think there are no little things.
- Barton, Bruce
Things and little things Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Things and little things

1.
It's the little things that make the big things possible. Only close attention to the fine details of any operation makes the operation first class.
Marriott, J. Willard

2.
Small kindnesses, small courtesies, small considerations, habitually practiced in our social intercourse, give a greater charm to the character than the display of great talents and accomplishments.
Kelty, Mary Ann

3.
What we call little things are merely the causes of great things; they are the beginning, the embryo, and it is the point of departure which, generally speaking, decides the whole future of an existence. One single black speck may be the beginning of a gangrene, of a storm, of a revolution.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

4.
Wellbeing is attained by little and little, and nevertheless is no little thing itself.
Zeno, Citium

5.
Those that are little, little things suit.
Horace

6.
You'll come to learn a great deal if you study the Insignificant in depth.
Elytis, Odysseus

7.
Human felicity is produced not as much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen as by little advantages that occur every day.
Franklin, Benjamin

8.
All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy, and great things in that which is small.
Lao-Tzu

9.
We must not discriminate between things. Where things are concerned there are no class distinctions. We must pick out what is good for us where we can find it.
Picasso, Pablo

10.
All good work is done the way ants do things, little by little.
Hearn, Lafcadio

11.
Increased QUALITY PRODUCTIVITY is made up of 1000s of small improvements. Just like Gulliver who was held down by 1000s of threads. Each one doesn't seem to mean much, and in the case of a thread, can be easily broken. But 1000s of them can have a very strong effect.

12.
Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things. I am tempted to think there are no little things.
Barton, Bruce

13.
It is often better to have a great deal of harm happen to one than a little; a great deal may rouse you to remove what a little will only accustom you to endure.
Kleiser, Grenville

14.
It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen.
Wooden, John

15.
Inch by inch, it's a cinch.
Schuller, Robert H.

16.
As the few adepts in such things well know, universal morality is to be found in little everyday penny-events just as much as in great ones. There is so much goodness and ingenuity in a raindrop that an apothecary wouldn't let it go for less than half-a-crown...
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

17.
Nothing can be done except little by little.
Baudelaire, Charles

18.
If we triumph in the little things of our common hours, we are sure to triumph in our lives.

19.
There is no object so soft but it makes a hub for the wheeled universe.
Whitman, Walt

20.
Its the little things that matter, that add up in the end, with the priceless thrilling magic found only in a friend.
Dunphy, Elizabeth

21.
Inches make champions.
Lombardi, Vince

22.
Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.
Mandino, Og

23.
We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.
Edelman, Marian Wright

24.
It can be helpful simply to make a written or mental list of the things you do each day. Then give yourself a mental credit for each of them, however small. This will help you focus on what you have done instead of what you haven't gotten around to do. It may sound simplistic, but it works.
Burns, David D.

25.
What a profound significance small things assume when the woman we love conceals them from us.
Proust, Marcel

26.
We can not do great things. We can only do little things with great love.
Mother Teresa

27.
Inanimate objects are classified scientifically into three major categories -- those that don't work, those that break down and those that get lost.
Baker, Russell (Wayne)

28.
It isn't the big pleasures that count the most; it's making a great deal out of the little ones.
Webster, Jean

29.
I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble.
Keller, Helen

30.
There is no one giant step that does it. It's a lot of little steps.
Cohen, Peter A.

31.
Life is made up of small pleasures. Happiness is made up of those tiny successes. The big ones come too infrequently. And if you don't collect all these tiny successes, the big ones don't really mean anything.
Lear, Norman

32.
Fewer and fewer Americans possess objects that have a patina, old furniture, grandparents pots and pans -- the used things, warm with generations of human touch, essential to a human landscape. Instead, we have our paper phantoms, transistorized landscapes. A featherweight portable museum.
Sontag, Susan

33.
As we become curators of our own contentment on the Simple Abundance path... we learn to savor the small with a grateful heart.
Breathnach, Sarah Ban

34.
The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions -- the little soon forgotten charities of a kiss or smile, a kind look, a heartfelt compliment, and the countless infinitesimal of pleasurable and genial feeling.
Coleridge, Samuel Taylor

35.
For the person for whom small things do not exist, the great is not great.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

36.
A small leak can sink a great ship
Franklin, Benjamin

37.
Success in life is founded upon attention to the small things rather than to the large things; to the every day things nearest to us rather than to the things that are remote and uncommon.
Washington, Booker T.

38.
If you add a little to a little and do this often, soon the little will become great.
Hesiod

39.
Little pots soon boil over.

40.
All great things are only a number of small things that have carefully been collected together.

41.
I feel like a micro cog in a macrocosm
Guyette, Mary

42.
A mountain is composed of tiny grains of earth. The ocean is made up of tiny drops of water. Even so, life is but an endless series of little details, actions, speeches, and thoughts. And the consequences whether good or bad of even the least of them are far-reaching.
Sivananda, Sri Swami

43.
Someone has calculated that in fifteen minutes a day we can read the Bible through twice in a year's time.

44.
I believe in the total depravity of inanimate things... the elusiveness of soap, the knottiness of strings, the transitory nature of buttons, the inclination of suspenders to twist and of hooks to forsake their lawful eyes, and cleave only unto the hairs of their hapless owner's head.
Walker, Katharine

45.
My own idea is that these things are as piffle before the wind.
Ashford, Daisy

46.
Every passion borders on the chaotic, but the collector's passion borders on the chaos of memories.
Benjamin, Walter

47.
I don't look to jump over 7-foot bars: I look around for 1-foot bars that I can step over.
Buffett, Warren

48.
The person determined to achieve maximum success learns the principle that progress is made one step at a time. A house is built one brick at a time. Football games are won a play at a time. A department store grows bigger one customer at a time. Every big accomplishment is a series of little accomplishments.
Schwartz, David J.

49.
A mighty flame followeth a tiny spark.
Dante Alighieri

50.
It has been rightly said that nothing is unimportant, nothing powerless in the universe; a single atom can dissolve everything, and save everything! What terror! There lies the eternal distinction between good and evil.
Nerval, Gerard De
