Motivational Quotes
Action
Let us, if we must have great actions, make our own so. All action is of infinite elasticity, and the least admits of being inflated with celestial air, until it eclipses the sun and moon.
Best Quotes about Action
Fertilizer does no good in a heap, but a little spread around works miracles all over.
Ross, Percy
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Berger, Sally
Effective action is always unjust.
Anouilh, Jean
Don't wait for your ship to come in, swim out to it.
Everyone who got where he is had to begin where he was.
Evans, Richard L.
Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can.
Smith, Sydney
You can't aim a duck to death.
Boardman, Gael
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
Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting a particular way. We become just by performing just actions, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave actions.
Aristotle
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
Only the actions of the just smell sweet and blossom in the dust.
Shirley, James
Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing perfectly.
Schuller, Robert H.
I never worry about action, but only inaction.
Churchill, Winston
The sure conviction that we could if we wanted to is the reason so many good minds are idle.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
The person who doesn't scatter the morning dew will not comb gray hairs
Proverb, Irish
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
Leap, and the net will appear.
Cameron, Julie
Let your hook always be cast. In the pool where you least expect it, will be a fish.
Ovid
A well begun is half ended.
Plato
Fresh activity is the only means of overcoming adversity.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat.
Saunders
He who limps is still walking.
Lec, Stanislaw J.
We are always getting ready to live, but never living.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
The time for action is now. It's never too late to do something.
Sandburg, Carl
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
Every action we take, everything we do, is either a victory or defeat in the struggle to become what we want to be.
Byrhhe, Anne
You know more of a road by having traveled it than by all the conjectures and descriptions in the world.
Hazlitt, William
There's as much risk in doing nothing as in doing something.
Crow, Trammell
Better to try something and fail than to try nothing and succeed.
You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought.
Holmes, Marjorie
Whatever fortune brings, don't be afraid of doing things.
Milne, A. A.
The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
Proverb, Chinese
When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike you, do not wait until he has struck before you crush him.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
Satisfaction consists in freedom from pain, which is the positive element of life.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
If you don't make things happen then things will happen to you.
Company, Lanes
A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
Action is greater than writing. A good man is a nobler object of contemplation than a great author. There are but two things worth living for: to do what is worthy of being written; and to write what is worthy of being read; and the
Pike, Albert
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Picasso, Pablo
He who has no taste for order, will be often wrong in his judgment, and seldom considerate or conscientious in his actions.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar
All the reputedly powerful reactionaries are merely paper tigers. The reason is that they are divorced from the people. Look! Was not Hitler a paper tiger? Was Hitler not overthrown? U.S. imperialism has not yet been overthrown and it has the atomic bomb. I believe it also will be overthrown. It, too, is a paper tiger.
Zedong, Mao
A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
Angelou, Maya
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
Mencken, H. L.
You have to be fast on your feet and adaptive or else a strategy is useless.
Gerstner, Lou
Some people forget to plant in the spring, idle away the summer hours and then expect to reap in the fall.
Do it now. Then it's done.
In action a great heart is the chief qualification. In work, a great head.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
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
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
