Landon, Michael

Hubbard, Elbert

Iacocca, Lee

29.
When deeds speak, words are nothing.
Proverb, African

30.
Your difficulty and my difficulty and the difficulty of every individual who ever desired to achieve something worthwhile, comes in the movement.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio

31.
The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God.
Tolstoy, Count Leo

Lavater, Johann Kaspar

Solve it. Solve it quickly, solve it right or wrong. If you solve it wrong, it will come back and slap you in the face, and then you can solve it right. Lying dead in the water and doing nothing is a comfortable alternative because it is without risk, but it is an absolutely fatal way to manage a business.
Watson, Thomas J.

35.
The soul is made for action, and cannot rest till it be employed. Idleness is its rust. Unless it will up and think and taste and see, all is in vain.
Traherne, Thomas

Long, Haniel

41.
The odds of hitting your target go up dramatically when you aim at it.
Pancoast, Mal
