Motivational Quotes
Action
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.

Best Quotes about Action
Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.
Canfield, Jack
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
Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.
Drucker, Peter F.
Satisfaction of one's curiosity is one of the greatest sources of happiness in life.
Pauling, Linus
Logic will not change an emotion, but action will.
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. [James 1:22]
Bible
Doing nothing is the most tiresome job in the world because you cannot quit and rest.
If you want to get along, go along.
Rayburn, Sam
You must get involved to have an impact. No one is impressed with the won-lost record of the referee.
Holcomb, John H.
Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.
Curcio, Joan L.
Heaven never helps the men who will not act.
Sophocles
When Demosthenes was asked what were the three most important aspects of oratory, he answered, Action, Action, Action.
Plutarch
Existence was given us for action. Our worth is determined by the good deed we do, rather than by the fine emotions we feel,
Magnin, Edgar F.
Don't be a spectator, don't let life pass you by.
Holtz, Lou
Many have too much, but none enough.
Proverb, Danish
Action is the highest perfection and drawing forth of the utmost power, vigor, and activity of man's nature.
South, Bishop Robert
For as one star another far exceeds, So souls in heaven are placed by their deeds.
Greene, Robert
Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.
Graffiti
Our actions are like the terminations of verses, which we rhyme as we please.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
Either move or be moved.
Powell, Colin
A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.
Calvin, John
Many are called but few get up.
Herford, Oliver
Periods of tranquillity are seldom prolific of creative achievement. Mankind has to be stirred up.
Whitehead, Alfred North
This body, full of faults, has yet one great quality: Whatever it encounters in this temporal life depends upon one's actions.
Nagarjuna, Siddha
Good things happen to those who hustle.
Noll, Chuck
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
A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
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
I like these words -- they seem to suggest action: If you hear a kind word spoken Of some worthy soul you know, It may fill his heart with sunshine If you'd only tell him so. If a deed, however humble, helps you On your way to go, Seek the one whose hand has helped you. Seek him out and tell him so. If your heart is touched and tender Towards sinner log and low, It might help him to do better If you could only tell him so.
Doing is a quantum leap from imagining. Thinking about swimming isn't much like actually getting in the water. Actually getting in the water can take your breath away. The defense force inside of us wants us to be cautious, to stay away from anything as intense as a new kind of action. Its job is to protect us, and it categorically avoids anything resembling danger. But it's often wrong. Anything worth doing is worth doing too soon.
Sher, Barbara
Human beings must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.
Eliot, George
You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; in just the same way, you learn to love by loving.
Francis De Sales, St.
I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
Lincoln, Abraham
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
Do it now. Then it's done.
Next in importance to having a good aim is to recognize when to pull the trigger.
Letterman, Elmer G.
Life leaps like a geyser for those who drill through the rock of inertia.
Carrel, Alexis
Narrative is linear, but action has breadth and depth as well as height and is solid.
Carlyle, Thomas
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
Mencken, H. L.
Believe in boys and girls and men and women of a great tomorrow that what so ever the boy soweth the man shall reap.
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
Do the things you know, and you shall learn the truth you need to know.
Macdonald, George
As our case is new, we must think and act anew.
Lincoln, Abraham
One thought driven home is better than three left on base.
Liter, James
There is a tendency for things to right themselves.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand -- and melting like a snowflake.
Ray, Marie Beyon
Mark this well, you proud men of action! you are, after all, nothing but unconscious instruments of the men of thought.
Heine, Heinrich
We will not know unless we begin.
Zinn, Howard
Nothing wilts faster than laurels that have been rested upon.
Rowan, Carl
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Iacocca, Lee
