Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
No, Ernest, don't talk about action. It is the last resource of those who know not how to dream.
Wilde, Oscar

2.
As our case is new, we must think and act anew.
Lincoln, Abraham

3.
No sooner said than done -- so acts your man of worth.
Ennius, Quintus

4.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Picasso, Pablo

5.
There's as much risk in doing nothing as in doing something.
Crow, Trammell

6.
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican

7.
As one acts and conducts himself, so does he become. The doer of good becomes good. The doer of evil becomes evil. One becomes virtuous by virtuous action, bad by bad action.
Upanishads, Veda

8.
You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought.
Holmes, Marjorie

9.
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

10.
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.

11.
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

12.
If you go on working with the light available, you will meet your Master, as he himself will be seeking you.
Maharshi, Ramana

13.
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

14.
Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false pride and conceit that can halt your progress. The next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pail of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your importance.
Mandino, Og

15.
Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.
Rogers, Will

16.
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

17.
The world has the habit of making room for the man whose actions show that he knows where he is going.
Hill, Napoleon

18.
The end of man is action, and not thought, though it be of the noblest.
Carlyle, Thomas

19.
Lead, follow, or get out of the way.
Turner, Ted

20.
The discipline of writing something down is the first step toward making it happen.
Iacocca, Lee

21.
A human action becomes genuinely important when it springs from the soil of a clear-sighted awareness of the temporality and the ephemerally of everything human. It is only this awareness that can breathe any greatness into an action.
Havel, Vaclav

22.
When a man dies, what does not leave him? The voice of a dead man goes into fire, his breath into wind, his eyes into the sun, his mind into the moon, his hearing into the quarters of heaven, his body into the land cheerfully. earth, his spirit into space
Upanishads, Veda

23.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
Vivekananda, Swami

24.
Try and trust will move mountains.
Proverb

25.
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

26.
When a man asks himself what is meant by action he proves that he isn't a man of action. Action is a lack of balance. In order to act you must be somewhat insane. A reasonably sensible man is satisfied with thinking.
Clemenceau, Georges

27.
Unless a capacity for thinking be accompanied by a capacity for action, a superior mind exists in torture.
Croce, Benedetto

28.
Then indecision brings its own delays, And days are lost lamenting o'er lost days. Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute; What you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

29.
The words printed here are concepts. You must go through the experiences.
Frieseke, Frederick (Carl)

30.
Talk doesn't cook rice.
Proverb, Chinese

31.
Often the difference between a successful person and a failure is not one has better abilities or ideas, but the courage that one has to bet on one's ideas, to take a calculated risk -- and to act.
Maltz, Maxwell

32.
Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
Gide, Andre

33.
Whatever fortune brings, don't be afraid of doing things.
Milne, A. A.

34.
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

35.
Don't wait for your ship to come in, swim out to it.

36.
Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.
Aurelius, Marcus

37.
We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.
Aristotle

38.
It isn't sufficient just to want -- you've got to ask yourself what you are going to do to get the things you want.
Rosen, Richard D.

Shakespeare, William

40.

To reach a port we must sail, sometimes with the wind, and sometimes against it. But we must not drift or lie at anchor.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

You won't skid if you stay in a rut.
Hubbard, Kin

48.
A sedentary life is the real sin against the Holy Spirit. Only those thoughts that come by walking have any value.

Eliot, Sir John

Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.
Landon, Michael
