Motivational Quotes
Action
We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Best Quotes about Action
The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can.
Smith, Sydney
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
When we don't have what we like, we must like what we have.
Proverb, French
We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
Disney, Walt
Act quickly, think slowly.
Proverb, Greek
The end of man is action, and not thought, though it be of the noblest.
Carlyle, Thomas
It will never rain roses: when we want to have more roses we must plant more trees.
Eliot, George
Just as there is no loss of basic energy in the universe, so no thought or action is without its effects, present or ultimate, seen or unseen, felt or unfelt.
Cousins, Norman
Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
He who considers too much will perform little.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
I hear and I forget, I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
Proverb, Chinese
Some people grin and bear it; others smile and do it.
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
We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.
Aristotle
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
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Dyer, Wayne
Life leaps like a geyser for those who drill through the rock of inertia.
Carrel, Alexis
We are born to action; and whatever is capable of suggesting and guiding action has power over us from the first.
Cooley, Charles Horton
From small beginnings come great things.
Proverb, American
Satisfaction consists in freedom from pain, which is the positive element of life.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
Positive anything is better than negative nothing.
Hubbard, Elbert
Teachers open the door but you must walk through it yourself.
Proverb, Chinese
Don't look back, just keep on walking.
Action makes more fortune than caution.
Clapiers, Luc De
The successful men of action are not sufficiently self-observant to know exactly on what their success depends.
Jacobs, Joseph
Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old -- old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something.
Teekens, Inga
A well begun is half ended.
Plato
Heaven never helps the men who will not act.
Sophocles
Your actions, and your action alone, determines your worth.
Fichte, Johann G.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Cameron, Julie
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
The chief condition on which, life, health and vigor depend on, is action. It is by action that an organism develops its faculties, increases its energy, and attains the fulfillment of its destiny.
Proudhon, Pierre Joseph
Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.
Levin, James
You have to be before you can do, and do before you can have.
Ziglar, Zig
The difficulties you meet will resolve themselves as you advance. Proceed, and light will dawn, and shine with increasing clearness on your path.
D'Alembert
All such action would cease if those powerful elemental forces were to cease stirring within us.
Einstein, Albert
How shall we learn to know ourselves? By reflection? Never; but only through action. Strive to do thy duty; then you shall know what is in thee.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Action expresses priorities.
Garfield, Charles A.
The person of intellect is lost unless they unite with energy of character. When we have the lantern of Diogenese we must also have his staff.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De
The only way you can bring in the harvest in the fall is to plant in the spring, and to water, weed, fertilize in the summer
The odds of hitting your target go up dramatically when you aim at it.
Pancoast, Mal
Take action in order to move toward your goals.
Brown, Les
When all is said and done, more is said than done.
Holtz, Lou
You can't pick cherries with your back to the tree.
Morgan, John Pierpont
Some people forget to plant in the spring, idle away the summer hours and then expect to reap in the fall.
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
He who walks with the lame learns how to limp.
Proverb, Latin
We have all the light we need, we just need to put it in practice.
Pilgrim, Peace
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
Initiative is doing the right thing without being told.
Hugo, Victor
