Thoughts and thinking

Man must get his thoughts, words and actions out of this vast moral jungle. We are not predators. We are, hopefully, more than instinctive killers and selfish brutes. Why take such a dim view of our potentialities and capabilities?
- Dinsah, H.Jay
Thoughts and thinking Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Thoughts and thinking

1.
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.

2.
Our life is what our thoughts make it. A man will find that as he alters his thoughts toward things and other people, things and other people will alter towards him.
Allen, James

3.
When thought becomes excessively painful, action is the finest remedy.
Rushdie, Salman

4.
Thinkers think and doers do. But until the thinkers do and the doers think, progress will be just another word in the already overburdened vocabulary of the talkers who talk.

5.
He that thinks he is the happiest man, really is so. But he that thinks he is the wisest, is generally the greatest fool.
Colton, Charles Caleb

6.
In order to be able to set a limit to thought, we should have to find both sides of the limit thinkable (i.e. we should have to be able to think what cannot be thought).
Wittgenstein, Ludwig

7.
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

8.
The how thinker gets problems solved effectively because he wastes no time with futile ifs.
Peale, Norman Vincent

9.
Many people would sooner die than think. In fact they do.
Russell, Bertrand

10.
Man is only a reed, the weakest in nature; but he is a thinking reed. There is no need for the whole universe to take up arms to crush him: a vapor, a drop of water is enough to kill him. But even if the universe were to crush him, man would still be nobler than his slayer, because he knows that he is dying and the advantage the universe has over him. The universe knows nothing of this.
Pascal, Blaise

11.
The more we are filled with thoughts of lust the less we find true romantic love.
Horton, Doug

12.
What's going on in the inside shows on the outside.
Nightingale, Earl

13.
Think of your own faults the first part of the night when you are awake, and of the faults of others the latter part of the night when you are asleep.
Proverb, Chinese

14.
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

15.
A man of meditation is happy, not for an hour or a day, but quite round the circle of all his years.
Taylor, Isaac

16.
No man can think clearly when his fists are clenched.
Nathan, George Jean

17.
Think then act safely.

18.
I am not what I think. I am thinking what I think.
Butterworth, Eric

19.
Do you suffer your thoughts to tamper with evil; and to dally with wrong-doing? If so; you are not sincere. God will regard your thoughts; for thoughts are heard in heaven. If you willingly sin in thought; if you are base and guilty there; because you think that no eye will see your thoughts; the guilt and baseness will sooner or later break into the outlets of word and deed -- from thought to wish -- from wish to purpose -- from purpose to word -- from word to act -- from act to habit -- from delight in the imagination to consent in the will -- from deed to repeated transgression; such is the genesis of sin.
Farrar, Frederick

20.
Every thought you entertain is a force that goes out, and every thought comes back laden with its kind.
Trine, Ralph Waldo

21.
Learn to think like a winner. Think positive and visualize your strengths.
Braden, Vic

22.
What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow: Our life is the creation of our mind.
Buddha

23.
I have known countless people who were reservoirs of learning, but never had a thought.
Mizner, Wilson

24.
Each thought that is welcomed and recorded is a nest egg by the side of which more will be laid.
Thoreau, Henry David

25.
Nurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never go any higher than you think.
Disraeli, Benjamin

26.
If everybody thought before they spoke, the silence would be deafening.
Barzan, George

27.
A person may dwell so long upon a thought that it may take him a prisoner.
Halifax, Edward F.

28.
Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth more than ruin more even than death. Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man.
Russell, Bertrand

29.
One must live the way one thinks or end up thinking the way one has lived.
Bourget, Paul

30.
We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care aboutwhat you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.
Vivekananda, Swami

31.
Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life [Matthew 6:27]
Bible

32.
I think I did pretty well, considering I started out with nothing but a bunch of blank paper.
Martin, Steve

33.
Arouse the mind without resting it on anything.
Sutra, Diamond

34.
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

35.
You live with your thoughts -- so be careful what they are.
Arrington, Eva

36.
The birthplace of success for each person is in his Inner-Consciousness. The Inner-Consciousness will use whatever it is given. If constructive thoughts are planted positive outcomes will be the result. Plant the seeds of failure and failure will follow.
Madwed, Sidney

37.
How can I know what I think till I see what I say?
Forster, Edward M.

38.
It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.
Schuller, Robert H.

39.
Thought is the wind and knowledge the sail.
Hare, David

40.
A hundred wagon loads of thoughts will not pay a single ounce of debt.
Proverb, Italian

41.
The minute a phrase, becomes current, it becomes an apology for not thinking accurately to the end of the sentence.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

42.
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

43.
The soul of God is poured into the world through the thoughts of men.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

44.
Guard your roving thoughts with a jealous care, for speech is but the dialer of thoughts, and every fool can plainly read in your words what is the hour of your thoughts.
Tennyson, Lord Alfred

45.
The revelation of Thought takes men out of servitude into freedom.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

46.
When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon.
Paine, Thomas

47.
If everyone is thinking alike then somebody isn't thinking.
Patton, George S.

48.
The surprises of thought are like those of love: they wear out. But here too you can carry on for a long time doing your conjugal duty.
Baudrillard, Jean

49.
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren

50.
Man is obviously made for thinking. Therein lies all his dignity and his merit; and his whole duty is to think as he ought.
Pascal, Blaise
