Thoughts and thinking Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Thoughts and thinking

1.
Each thought is a nail that is driven In structures that cannot decay; And the mansion at last will be given To us as we build it each day.
Eliot, George

2.
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

3.
Some persons do first, think afterward, and then repent forever.
Secker, Thomas

4.
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.

5.
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

6.
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

7.
They use thought only to justify their injustices, and speech only to disguise their thoughts.
Voltaire

8.
There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace? If they have not, there is something wrong with them -- so keep seeking! If what you do has brought you inner peace, stay with what you believe is right.
Pilgrim, Peace

9.
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

10.
It is the power of thought that gives man power over nature.
Anderson, Hans Christian

11.
Nurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never go any higher than you think.
Disraeli, Benjamin

12.
I was a freethinker before I knew how to think.
Shaw, George Bernard

13.
As the Fletcher whittles and makes straight his arrows, so the master directs his straying thoughts.
Buddha

14.
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

15.
Life is good when we think it's good. Life is bad when we don't think.
Horton, Doug

16.
Thinking is only a process of talking to yourself.

17.
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

18.
The thought pattern characteristic of the right brain lends itself to the formation of original ideas, insights, discoveries. We might describe it as the kind of thought prevalent in early childhood, when everything is new and everything has meaning. If you have ever walked along a beach and suddenly stopped to pick up a piece of driftwood because it looked to you like a leaping impala or a troll, you know the feeling of pleasure that comes from the sudden recognition of a form. Your Design mind (right brain) has perceived connections and had made a pattern of meaning. It takes logical, rational acts and facts of the world you know, the snippets of your experience, the bits and pieces of your language capabilities, and perceives connections, patterns, and relationships in them.
Rico, Gabriele Lusser

19.
THINK. Think about your appearance, associations, actions, ambitions, accomplishment.
Watson, Thomas J.

20.
A sect or party is an incognito devised to save man from the vexation of thinking.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

21.
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

22.
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.

23.
Thought is an infection. In the case of certain thoughts, it becomes an epidemic.
Stevens, Wallace

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.
Think then act safely.

26.
Many a man fails as an original thinker simply because his memory it too good.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

27.
We are formed and molded by our thoughts. Those whose minds are shaped by selfless thoughts give joy when they speak or act. Joy follows them like a shadow that never leaves them.
Buddha

28.
Associate reverently, as much as you can, with your loftiest thoughts.
Thoreau, Henry David

29.
If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.
Cicero, Marcus T.

30.
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

31.
What's going on in the inside shows on the outside.
Nightingale, Earl

32.
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

33.
How can they expect a harvest of thought who have not had the seed time of character.
Thoreau, Henry David

34.
When someone you greatly admire and respect appears to be thinking deep thoughts, they are probably thinking about lunch.

35.
Thinking in words slows you down and actually decreases comprehension in much the same way as walking a tightrope too slowly makes one lose one's balance.
Fleischer, Lenore

36.
If a man sits down to think, he is immediately asked if has a headache.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

37.
Sloppy thinking gets worse over time.
Holzer, Jenny

38.
Like many rich men, he thought in anecdotes; like many simple women, she thought in terms of biography.
Brookner, Anita

39.
Thinking is heavily endorsed.
Pancoast, Mal

40.
If one wants to abide in the thought-free state, a struggle is inevitable. One must fight one's way through before regaining one's original primal state. If one succeeds in the fight and reaches the goal, the enemy, namely the thoughts, will all subside in the Self and disappear entirely.
Maharshi, Ramana

41.
Our virtues are dearer to us the more we have had to suffer for them. It is the same with our children. All profound affection entertains a sacrifice. Our thoughts are often worse than we are, just as they are often better.
Eliot, George

42.
When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon.
Paine, Thomas

43.
Nothing has any power over me other than that which I give it through my conscious thoughts.
Robbins, Anthony

44.
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

45.
We all indulge in the strange, pleasant process called thinking, but when it comes to saying, even to someone opposite, what we think, then how little we are able to convey! The phantom is through the mind and out of the window before we can lay salt on
Woolf, Virginia

46.
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

47.
Thought makes every thing fit for use.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

48.
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

49.
Thoughts are forces.
Trine, Ralph Waldo

50.
The busiest of living agents are certain dead men's thoughts.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
