Action

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



Best Quotes about Action

1.
Begin to free yourself at once by doing all that is possible with the means you have, and as you proceed in this spirit the way will open for you to do more.
Collier, Robert

2.
Actions are the seed of fate deeds grow into destiny.
Linall Jr. A. L.

3.
Sometimes something worth doing is worth overdoing.
Letterman, David

4.
There is a tendency for things to right themselves.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

5.
I have never heard anything about the resolutions of the apostles, but a good deal about their acts.
Mann, Horace

6.
Whether you find satisfaction in life depends not on your tale of years, but on your will.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

7.
Heaven never helps the men who will not act.
Sophocles

8.
Unless a capacity for thinking be accompanied by a capacity for action, a superior mind exists in torture.
Croce, Benedetto

9.
There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is on a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.
Graham, Martha

10.
Begin where you are; work where you are; the hour which you are now wasting, dreaming of some far off success may be crowded with grand possibilities.
Marden, Orison Swett

11.
Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last.
Aurelius, Marcus

12.
No rules for success will work if you don't.

13.
The words printed here are concepts. You must go through the experiences.
Frieseke, Frederick (Carl)

14.
Be both the gardener and the rose.

15.
Action is the last resource of those who know not how to dream.
Wilde, Oscar

16.
You have to be fast on your feet and adaptive or else a strategy is useless.
Gerstner, Lou

17.
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

18.
Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
Hansen, Mark Victor

19.
I think there is something, more important than believing: Action! The world is full of dreamers, there aren't enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision.
Stone, W. Clement

20.
Life leaps like a geyser for those who drill through the rock of inertia.
Carrel, Alexis

21.
What really distinguishes this generation in all countries from earlier generations... is its determination to act, its joy in action, the assurance of being able to change things by one's own efforts.
Arendt, Hannah

22.
Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
Aurelius, Marcus

23.
You don't have to get it right the first time.
Sher, Barbara

24.
It's motive alone which gives character to the actions of men.
Bruyere, Jean De La

25.
The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
Perot, H. Ross

26.
Thought is the organizing factor in man, intersected between the causal primary instincts and the resulting actions.
Einstein, Albert

27.
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

28.
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

29.
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

30.
Act, don't react!

31.
Every action is either strong or weak, and when every action is strong we are successful.
Wattles, Wallace D.

32.
To sit back hoping that someday, some way, someone will make things right is to go on feeding the crocodile, hoping he will eat you last --but eat you he will.
Reagan, Ronald

33.
If you want a thing done, go. If not, send. The shortest answer is doing.
Proverb, English

34.
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.

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

38.
'Tis God gives skill, but not without men's hand: He could not make Antonio Stradivarius's violins without Antonio.
Eliot, George

39.
Thought and theory must precede all salutary action; yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory.
Wordsworth, William

40.
Human beings must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.
Eliot, George

41.
He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

42.
Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.
Grant, Heber J.

43.
Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing perfectly.
Schuller, Robert H.

44.
Men do not value a good deed unless it brings a reward.
Ovid

45.
Those old faces, in Pasadena, California, and Tucson, Arizona, and Dallas, crumpling in hatred and fear at the mention of the United Nations or those liberals in government who constitute for them the fifth column of communism, yearn for an America that is as far from the society of the present as is the extended family system in village India.
Segal, Ronald

46.
The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
Rohn, Jim

47.
Before you can do something you must first be something.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

48.
If you act like you know what you're doing, you can do anything you want -- except neurosurgery.
Lowenstein, John

49.
Do it now! can affect every phase of your life. It can help you do the things you should do but don't feel like doing. It can keep you from procrastinating when an unpleasant duty faces you. But it can also help you do those things that you want to do. It helps you seize those precious moments that, if lost, may never be retrieved.
Hill, Napoleon

50.
He who has begun has half done. Dare to be wise; begin.
Horace
