Good actions ennoble us, and we are the sons of our own deeds.

Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Iacocca, Lee

2.
'Tis God gives skill, but not without men's hand: He could not make Antonio Stradivarius's violins without Antonio.
Eliot, George

3.
Actions are the seed of fate deeds grow into destiny.
Linall Jr. A. L.

4.
I like these words -- they seem to suggest action: If you hear a kind word spoken Of some worthy soul you know, It may fill his heart with sunshine If you'd only tell him so. If a deed, however humble, helps you On your way to go, Seek the one whose hand has helped you. Seek him out and tell him so. If your heart is touched and tender Towards sinner log and low, It might help him to do better If you could only tell him so.

5.
You know more of a road by having traveled it than by all the conjectures and descriptions in the world.
Hazlitt, William

6.
The link between ideas and action is rarely direct. There is almost always an intermediate step in which the idea is overcome. De Tocqueville points out that it is at times when passions start to govern human affairs that ideas are most obviously translated into political action. The translation of ideas into action is usually in the hands of people least likely to follow rational motives. Hence, it is that action is often the nemesis of ideas, and sometimes of the men who formulate them. One of the marks of the truly vigorous society is the ability to dispense with passion as a midwife of action the ability to pass directly from thought to action.
Hoffer, Eric

7.
Things won are done, joy's soul lies in the doing.
Shakespeare, William

8.
An acre of performance is worth a whole world of promise.
Howells, William Dean

9.
Every action is either strong or weak, and when every action is strong we are successful.
Wattles, Wallace D.

10.
Now is the season for sailing; for already the chattering swallow is come and the pleasant west wind; the meadows bloom and the sea, tossed up with waves and rough blasts, has sunk to silence. Weigh thine anchors and unloose thy hawsers, O Mariner, and sail with all thy canvas set.
Tarentum, Leonidas of

11.
I will act as if what I do makes a difference.
James, William

12.
Don't think, just do.
Horton, Reiko

13.
Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.
Rogers, Will

14.
Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.
Drucker, Peter F.

15.
No one will do it for you.
Stein, Ben

16.
There is no use trying, said Alice; one can't believe impossible things. I dare say you haven't had much practice, said the Queen. When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
Carroll, Lewis

17.
It is no use trying to sum people up. One must follow hints, not exactly what is said, nor yet entirely what is done.
Woolf, Virginia

18.
Allow motion to equal emotion.
Hubbard, Elbert

19.
Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting a particular way. We become just by performing just actions, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave actions.
Aristotle

20.
Every action we take, everything we do, is either a victory or defeat in the struggle to become what we want to be.
Byrhhe, Anne

21.
Act quickly, think slowly.
Proverb, Greek

22.
We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as courses, and they come back to us as effects.
Melville, Herman

23.
Our actions are like the terminations of verses, which we rhyme as we please.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

24.
He who considers too much will perform little.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

25.
What we need is to use what we have.
Walsh, Basil S.

26.
If you act like you know what you're doing, you can do anything you want -- except neurosurgery.
Lowenstein, John

27.
But their intervention makes our acts to serve ever less merely the immediate claims of our instincts.
Einstein, Albert

28.
Narrative is linear, but action has breadth and depth as well as height and is solid.
Carlyle, Thomas

29.
The wise man does at once what the fool does finally.
Gracian, Baltasar

30.
Do something everyday for no other reason than you would rather not do it, so that when the hour of dire need draws nigh, it may find you not unnerved and untrained to stand the test.
James, William

31.
The road of life can only reveal itself as it is traveled; each turn in the road reveals a surprise. Man's future is hidden.

32.
The secret to success is to start from scratch and keep on scratching.
Green, Dennis

33.
Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure.
Edison, Thomas A.

34.
The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It's as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer.
Bushnell, Nolan

35.
Whatever fortune brings, don't be afraid of doing things.
Milne, A. A.

36.
It's easy to work for somebody else; all you have to do is show up.
Warford, Rita

37.
Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.
Levin, James

38.
The person who doesn't scatter the morning dew will not comb gray hairs
Proverb, Irish

39.
Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature.
Bhagavad Gita

40.
In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.
Robbins, Anthony

41.
As our case is new, we must think and act anew.
Lincoln, Abraham

42.
Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. [Matthew 7:12]
Bible

43.
A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided.
Robbins, Anthony

44.
The deed is everything, the glory is naught.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

45.
People say to me, You were a roaring success. How did you do it? I go back to what my parents taught me. Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make something happen.
Iacocca, Lee

46.
People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do.
Cass, Lewis

47.
A sedentary life is the real sin against the Holy Spirit. Only those thoughts that come by walking have any value.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

48.
You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; in just the same way, you learn to love by loving.
Francis De Sales, St.

49.
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
Mother Teresa

50.
In action be primitive; in foresight, a strategist.
Char, Rene
