Best Quotes about Action

1.
I did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go before the mast and on the deck of the world, for there I could best see the moonlight amid the mountains. I do not wish to go below now.
Thoreau, Henry David

2.
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

3.
In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.
Robbins, Anthony

4.
The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can.
Smith, Sydney

5.
For as one star another far exceeds, So souls in heaven are placed by their deeds.
Greene, Robert

6.
Sitting quietly, doing nothing, spring comes and the grass grows by itself.
Saying, Zen

7.
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

8.
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.

9.
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

10.
We are born to action; and whatever is capable of suggesting and guiding action has power over us from the first.
Cooley, Charles Horton

11.
There should be less talk; a preaching point is not a meeting point. What do you do then? Take a broom and clean someone's house. That says enough.
Mother Teresa

12.
I hear and I forget, I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
Proverb, Chinese

13.
I have never heard anything about the resolutions of the apostles, but a good deal about their acts.
Mann, Horace

14.
The successful men of action are not sufficiently self-observant to know exactly on what their success depends.
Jacobs, Joseph

15.
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

16.
Do it this very moment, Don't put it off, There's no use in doing a kindness, if you do it a day too late.

17.
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

18.
I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.
Taylor, Russell C.

19.
Oh, I'm not going to do anything to them. The thought that I might will be enough to keep them going.
Bowkett, Chris

20.
A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it.
Galsworthy, John

21.
Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.
Graffiti

22.
Act quickly, think slowly.
Proverb, Greek

23.
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

24.
Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature.
Bhagavad Gita

25.
You don't have to get it right the first time.
Sher, Barbara

26.
The only way to start is to start.

27.
Between eighteen and twenty, life is like an exchange where one buys stocks, not with money, but with actions. Most men buy nothing.
Malraux, Andre

28.
If you start soon enough, you won't have to run to catch up.

29.
All these primary impulses, not easily described in words, are the springs of man's actions.
Einstein, Albert

30.
It's no good agreeing with a person who can't make up his mind.

31.
A sedentary life is the real sin against the Holy Spirit. Only those thoughts that come by walking have any value.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

32.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Dyer, Wayne

33.
Action and faith enslave thought, both of them in order not be troubled or inconvenienced by reflection, criticism, and doubt.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

34.
Mark this well, you proud men of action! you are, after all, nothing but unconscious instruments of the men of thought.
Heine, Heinrich

35.
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Picasso, Pablo

36.
What you are will show in what you do.
Edison, Thomas A.

37.
What really matters is what you do with what you have.
Lord, Shirley

38.
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

39.
Between saying and doing, many a pair of shoes is worn out.
Proverb, Italian

40.
It is the direction and not the magnitude which is to be taken into consideration.
Troward, Thomas

41.
Do not wait; the time will never be just right. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
Hill, Napoleon

42.
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

43.
Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.
Curcio, Joan L.

44.
The secret of getting things done is to act!
David, Benjamin O.

45.
Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
Peale, Norman Vincent

46.
Man who stand on hill with mouth open will wait long time for roast duck to drop in.
Confucius

47.
Thought is the organizing factor in man, intersected between the causal primary instincts and the resulting actions.
Einstein, Albert

48.
We must not sit still and look for miracles; up and doing, and the Lord will be with thee. Prayer and pains, through faith in Christ Jesus, will do anything.
Eliot, Sir John

49.
Taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor
