Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.
Rogers, Will

2.
Positive anything is better than negative nothing.
Hubbard, Elbert

3.
We should not be so taken up in the search for truth, as to neglect the needful duties of active life; for it is only action that gives a true value and commendation to virtue.
Cicero, Marcus T.

4.
One of the best lessons children learn through video games is standing still will get them killed quicker than anything else.
Milea, Jinx

5.
It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it.
Nin, Anais

6.
He who walks with the lame learns how to limp.
Proverb, Latin

7.
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

8.
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican

9.
Like other revolutionaries I can thank God for the reactionaries. They clarify the issue.
Collingwood, Robin G.

10.
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

11.
Dwell not on the past. Use it to illustrate a point, then leave it behind. Nothing really matters except what you do now in this instant of time. From this moment onwards you can be an entirely different person, filled with love and understanding, ready with an outstretched hand, uplifted and positive in every thought and deed.
Caddy, Eileen

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.
Speak out in acts; the time for words has passed, and only deeds will suffice.
Whittier, John Greenleaf

14.
Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

15.
All these primary impulses, not easily described in words, are the springs of man's actions.
Einstein, Albert

16.
Think like a man of action, and act like a man of thought.
Bergson, Henri L.

17.
You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.
Robbins, Anthony

18.
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

19.
Our actions are like the terminations of verses, which we rhyme as we please.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

20.
There is a tendency for things to right themselves.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

21.
What an elder sees sitting; the young can't see standing.
Proverb, Ibo

22.
A man's action is only a picture book of his creed.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

23.
Effective action is always unjust.
Anouilh, Jean

24.
We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.
Aristotle

25.
We will burn that bridge when we come to it.
Gorski, Nick

26.
Those who are more adapted to the active life can prepare themselves for contemplation in the practice of the active life, while those who are more adapted to the contemplative life can take upon themselves the works of the active life so as to become yet more apt for contemplation.
Aquinas, St. Thomas

27.
So what do we do? Anything. Something. So long as we just don't sit there. If we screw it up, start over. Try something else. If we wait until we've satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late.
Iacocca, Lee

28.
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

29.
Don't look back, just keep on walking.

30.
A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
Angelou, Maya

31.
He who considers too much will perform little.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

32.
All such action would cease if those powerful elemental forces were to cease stirring within us.
Einstein, Albert

33.
Just as a flower which seems beautiful and has color but no perfume, so are the fruitless words of the man who speaks them but does them not.
Dhammapada

34.
A gold medal is a wonderful thing, but if you're not enough without the medal, you'll never be enough with it.
Movie, Cool Runnings

35.
Winning starts with beginning.
Schuller, Robert H.

36.
I will act as if what I do makes a difference.
James, William

37.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Picasso, Pablo

38.
Let your performance do the thinking.
Brown Jr., H. Jackson

39.
Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

40.
In this country men seem to live for action as long as they can and sink into apathy when they retire.
Adams, Charles Francis

41.
Let your hook always be cast. In the pool where you least expect it, will be a fish.
Ovid

42.
All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them. [Matthew 7:12]
Bible

43.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Berger, Sally

44.
The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
Rohn, Jim

45.
Resolved, never to do anything which I should be afraid to do, if it were my last of life.
Edwards, Edward

46.
Deliberation is the work of many men. Action, of one alone.
Gaulle, Charles De

You have to make it happen.
Greene, Joe

48.
Action is the highest perfection and drawing forth of the utmost power, vigor, and activity of man's nature.
South, Bishop Robert
