Thoughts and thinking Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Thoughts and thinking

1.
Learning without thought is labor lost. Thought without learning is perilous.
Confucius

2.
All thought must, directly or indirectly, by way of certain characters, relate ultimately to intuitions, and therefore, with us, to sensibility, because in no other way can an object be given to us.
Kant, Immanuel

3.
When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon.
Paine, Thomas

4.
The more we are filled with thoughts of lust the less we find true romantic love.
Horton, Doug

5.
Humans have the ability to shift perspective. We can experience the world through our senses. Or we can remove ourselves from our senses and experience the world even less directly. We can think about our life, rather than thinking in our life. We can think about what we think about our life, and we can think about what we think about that. We can shift perceptual positions many times over.
Emerick, John J.

6.
Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, the chief glory of man.
Russell, Bertrand

7.
We in America have everything we need except the most important thing of all-time to think and the habit of thought.
Cousins, Norman

8.
When I'm getting ready to reason with a man, I spend one-third of my time thinking about myself and what I am going to say and two-thirds thinking about him and what he is going to say.
Lincoln, Abraham

9.
Each thought that is welcomed and recorded is a nest egg by the side of which more will be laid.
Thoreau, Henry David

10.
As you think, so shall you become.
Lee, Bruce

11.
Everyone has to learn to think differently, bigger, to open to possibilities.
Winfrey, Oprah

12.
What is the hardest thing in the world? To think.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

13.
Learn to think like a winner. Think positive and visualize your strengths.
Braden, Vic

14.
Many people would sooner die than think. In fact they do.
Russell, Bertrand

15.
Far more numerous are those as such; who think too little and talk too much.
Dryden, John

16.
If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.
Cicero, Marcus T.

17.
The birth of thought in the depths of the spirit, the shaping and ordering of it into periods, the translation into signs, and above all the transference of it from one spirit to another, the communication that is, if only for an instant, the meeting of two beings, with the unforeseeable consequences that such a meeting always causes, is in fact a miracle; except that the moment one stops to think about it one can't even write a letter.
Satta, Salvatore

18.
It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.
Golding, William

19.
You need not aspire for or get any new state. Get rid of your present thoughts, that is all.
Maharshi, Ramana

20.
Kind thoughts are rarer than either kind words or deeds. They imply a great deal of thinking about others. This in itself is rare. But they also imply a great deal of thinking about others without the thoughts being criticisms. This is rarer still.
Faber, Frederick W.

21.
If I look confused it is because I am thinking.
Goldwyn, Samuel

22.
Every thought is a seed. If you plant crab apples don't count on harvesting golden Delicious .

23.
Thought is made in the mouth.
Tzara, Tristan

24.
Great thoughts always come from the heart.
Vauvenargues, Marquis De

25.
Thought makes every thing fit for use.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

26.
When I am attacked by gloomy thoughts, nothing helps me so much as running to my books, They quickly absorb me and banish the clouds from my mind.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

27.
When I write down my thoughts, they do not escape me. This action makes me remember my strength which I forget at all times. I educate myself proportionately to my captured thought. I aim only to distinguish the contradiction between my mind and nothingness.
Lautreamont, Isidore Ducasse, Comte De

28.
There is nothing so unthinkable as thought, unless it be the entire absence of thought.
Butler, Samuel

29.
He that never thinks can never be wise.
Johnson

30.
Few people think more than two or three times a year. I have made an international reputation for myself thinking once or twice a week.
Shaw, George Bernard

31.
We are what we think. All that we are arises With our thoughts. With our thoughts, We make our world.
Buddha

32.
We do not live to think, but, on the contrary, we think in order that we may succeed in surviving.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

33.
We like a man to come right out and say what he thinks, if we agree with him.
Twain, Mark

34.
Some persons do first, think afterward, and then repent forever.
Secker, Thomas

35.
How can I know what I think till I see what I say?
Forster, Edward M.

36.
Thoughts are things; they have tremendous power. Thoughts of doubt and fear are pathways to failure. When you conquer negative attitudes of doubt and fear you conquer failure. Thoughts crystallize into habit and habit solidifies into circumstances.
Adams, Bryan

37.
No man can ever be greater than his loftiest thoughts.

38.
You live with your thoughts -- so be careful what they are.
Arrington, Eva

39.
Do not think that what your thoughts dwell upon is of no matter. Your thoughts are making you.
Steere, Bishop

40.
I roamed the countryside searching for answers to things I did not understand. Why thunder lasts longer than that which causes it, and why immediately on its creation the lightning becomes visible to the eye while thunder requires time to travel. How the various circles of water form around the spot which has been struck by a stone and why a bird sustains itself in the air. These questions and other strange phenomena engaged my thought throughout my life.
Da Vinci, Leonardo

41.
Build this day on a foundation of pleasant thoughts. Never fret at any imperfections that you fear may impede your progress. Remind yourself, as often as necessary, that you are a creature of God and have the power to achieve any dream by lifting up your thoughts. You can fly when you decide that you can. Never consider yourself defeated again. Let the vision in your heart be in your life's blueprint. Smile!
Mandino, Og

42.
Thought is the original source of all wealth, all success, all material gain, all great discoveries and inventions, and of all achievement.
Bristol, Claude M.

43.
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

44.
When someone you greatly admire and respect appears to be thinking deep thoughts, they are probably thinking about lunch.

45.
Thought must be divided against itself before it can come to any knowledge of itself.
Huxley, Aldous

46.
Profundity of thought belongs to youth, clarity of thought to old age.
Fredrich

47.
I think I did pretty well, considering I started out with nothing but a bunch of blank paper.
Martin, Steve

48.
Think twice before you speak, then say it to yourself first.

49.
Thought is the sculptor who can create the person you want to be.
Thoreau, Henry David

50.
Our goodness comes solely from thinking on goodness; our wickedness from thinking on wickedness. We too are the victims of our own contemplation.
Chapman, John Jay
