Action

Action and faith enslave thought, both of them in order not be troubled or inconvenienced by reflection, criticism, and doubt.
- Amiel, Henri Frederic
Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
When all is said the greatest action is to limit and isolate one's self.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

2.
Act, if you like, but you do it at your peril. Men's actions are too strong for them. Show me a man who has acted and who has not been the victim and slave of his action.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

3.
A gold medal is a wonderful thing, but if you're not enough without the medal, you'll never be enough with it.
Movie, Cool Runnings

4.
Be both the gardener and the rose.

5.
Do not wait; the time will never be just right. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
Hill, Napoleon

6.
If you want a thing done, go. If not, send. The shortest answer is doing.
Proverb, English

7.
The wise man does at once what the fool does finally.
Gracian, Baltasar

8.
No, Ernest, don't talk about action. It is the last resource of those who know not how to dream.
Wilde, Oscar

9.
He is rich that is satisfied.
Fuller, Thomas

10.
As I grow older, I pay less attention to what people say. I just watch what they do.
Carnegie, Andrew

11.
The common conception is that motivation leads to action, but the reverse is true -- action precedes motivation. You have to prime the pump and get the juice flowing, which motivates you to work on your goals. Getting momentum going is the most difficult part of the job, and often taking the first step is enough to prompt you to make the best of your day.
Mckain, Robert J.

12.
An ant on the move does more than a dozing ox.
Proverb, Mexican

13.
Begin somewhere: you cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do.
Smith, Liz

14.
Before you can do something you must first be something.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

15.
Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

16.
You can never get enough of the things you don't need, because the things you don't need can never satisfy.
Ashton, Marvin J.

17.
Ideas won't keep, something must be done about them.
Whitehead, Alfred North

18.
I am easily satisfied with the very best.
Churchill, Winston

19.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Dyer, Wayne

20.
The odds of hitting your target go up dramatically when you aim at it.
Pancoast, Mal

21.
The only correct actions are those that demand no explanation and no apology.
Auerbach, Red

22.
Every man of action has a strong dose of egoism, pride, hardness, and cunning. But all those things will be regarded as high qualities if he can make them the means to achieve great ends.
Gaulle, Charles De

23.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Picasso, Pablo

24.
When Demosthenes was asked what were the three most important aspects of oratory, he answered, Action, Action, Action.
Plutarch

25.
We will not know unless we begin.
Zinn, Howard

26.
People sitting on top of the world, usually arrived there standing up.

27.
Let no one be deluded that a knowledge of the path can substitute for putting one foot in front of the other.
Richards, Mary Caroline

28.
All human actions are equivalent... and all are on principle doomed to failure.
Sartre, Jean-Paul

29.
I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success. I will act now. I will repeat these words again and again and again. I will walk where failures fear to walk. I will work when failures seek rest. I will act now for now is all I have. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure. I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person.
Mandino, Og

30.
The only way to start is to start.

31.
It is not good enough for things to be planned -- they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation.
Khan, Pir Vilayat

32.
The world can only be grasped by action, not by contemplation. The hand is the cutting edge of the mind.
Bronowski, Jacob

33.
Let us, if we must have great actions, make our own so. All action is of infinite elasticity, and the least admits of being inflated with celestial air, until it eclipses the sun and moon.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

34.
We are born to action; and whatever is capable of suggesting and guiding action has power over us from the first.
Cooley, Charles Horton

35.
In action a great heart is the chief qualification. In work, a great head.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

36.
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
Mother Teresa

37.
I will act as if what I do makes a difference.
James, William

38.
Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.
Curcio, Joan L.

39.
A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

40.
Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action.
Disraeli, Benjamin

41.
Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
Peale, Norman Vincent

42.
The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
Rohn, Jim

43.
I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.
Schuller, Robert H.

44.
A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it.
Galsworthy, John

45.
Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.
Aurelius, Marcus

46.
Action and faith enslave thought, both of them in order not be troubled or inconvenienced by reflection, criticism, and doubt.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

47.
Existence was given us for action. Our worth is determined by the good deed we do, rather than by the fine emotions we feel,
Magnin, Edgar F.

48.
Your actions, and your action alone, determines your worth.
Fichte, Johann G.

49.
Nothing else so destroys the power to stand alone as the habit of leaning upon others. If you lean, you will never be strong or original. Stand alone or bury your ambition to be somebody in the world.
Marden, Orison Swett

50.
Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last.
Aurelius, Marcus
