Action Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Action

1.
I am easily satisfied with the very best.
Churchill, Winston

2.
So many fail because they don't get started -- they don't go. They don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.
Stone, W. Clement

3.
When all is said the greatest action is to limit and isolate one's self.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

4.
You must get involved to have an impact. No one is impressed with the won-lost record of the referee.
Holcomb, John H.

5.

Schuller, Robert H.

6.
Action is the highest perfection and drawing forth of the utmost power, vigor, and activity of man's nature.
South, Bishop Robert

7.
No steam or gas ever drives anything until it is confined. No Niagara is ever turned into light and power until it is tunneled. No life ever grows until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson

8.
Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.
Drucker, Peter F.

9.
We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as courses, and they come back to us as effects.
Melville, Herman

10.
In our era, the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.
Hammarskjold, Dag

Sitting quietly, doing nothing, spring comes and the grass grows by itself.
Saying, Zen

12.
You prove your worth with your actions, not with your mouth.
Riley, Pat

13.
We will act consistently with our view of who we truly are, whether that view is accurate or not.
Robbins, Anthony

14.
It is not good enough for things to be planned -- they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation.
Khan, Pir Vilayat

15.
It is the mark of a good action that it appears inevitable in retrospect.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

16.
Men do not value a good deed unless it brings a reward.
Ovid

17.
The best way to get something done is to begin.

18.
You have to make it happen.
Greene, Joe

19.
Do something everyday for no other reason than you would rather not do it, so that when the hour of dire need draws nigh, it may find you not unnerved and untrained to stand the test.
James, William

20.
Oh, I'm not going to do anything to them. The thought that I might will be enough to keep them going.
Bowkett, Chris

21.
Ideas won't keep, something must be done about them.
Whitehead, Alfred North

22.
The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
Rohn, Jim

23.
It's easy to work for somebody else; all you have to do is show up.
Warford, Rita

24.
Let no one be deluded that a knowledge of the path can substitute for putting one foot in front of the other.
Richards, Mary Caroline

25.
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

26.
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

27.
Reactionary: A man walking backwards with his face to the future.
Bevan, Aneurin

28.
Resolved, never to do anything which I should be afraid to do, if it were my last of life.
Edwards, Edward

29.
Effective action is always unjust.
Anouilh, Jean

30.
Life leaps like a geyser for those who drill through the rock of inertia.
Carrel, Alexis

31.
You can't start at the top.
Levenson, Samuel

32.
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Iacocca, Lee

33.
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.

34.
Act, if you like, but you do it at your peril. Men's actions are too strong for them. Show me a man who has acted and who has not been the victim and slave of his action.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

35.
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

36.
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
Mother Teresa

37.
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

38.
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
Mencken, H. L.

39.
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

40.
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.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

41.
Our deeds disguise us. People need endless time to try on their deeds, until each knows the proper deeds for him to do. But every day, every hour, rushes by. There is no time.
Long, Haniel

42.
We will burn that bridge when we come to it.
Gorski, Nick

43.
All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsions, habit, reason, passion, desire.
Aristotle

44.
The greatest potential for control tends to exist at the point where action takes place.
Allen, Loius A.

45.
Thought is the organizing factor in man, intersected between the causal primary instincts and the resulting actions.
Einstein, Albert

46.
It's better to waste one's youth than to do nothing with it at all.
Courteline, Georges

47.

Howells, William Dean

48.
Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
Gide, Andre

49.
