Best Quotes about Action
He who limps is still walking.
Lec, Stanislaw J.
Anything you do can get you fired; this includes doing nothing.
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
How long will they kill our prophets while we stand aside and look?
Marley, Bob
I go on working for the same reason that a hen goes on laying eggs.
Mencken, H. L.
I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.
Keller, Helen
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
One may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time.
Wanamaker, John
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
If you want to get along, go along.
Rayburn, Sam
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
Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Nothing wilts faster than laurels that have been rested upon.
Rowan, Carl
The world has the habit of making room for the man whose actions show that he knows where he is going.
Hill, Napoleon
Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.
Curcio, Joan L.
Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.
Grant, Heber J.
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
From small beginnings come great things.
Proverb, American
Begin somewhere: you cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do.
Smith, Liz
Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
Hansen, Mark Victor
Fresh activity is the only means of overcoming adversity.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
But their intervention makes our acts to serve ever less merely the immediate claims of our instincts.
Einstein, Albert
All human actions are equivalent... and all are on principle doomed to failure.
Sartre, Jean-Paul
Backbone beats wishbone every time.
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
You have to be before you can do, and do before you can have.
Ziglar, Zig
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
Deliberation is the work of many men. Action, of one alone.
Gaulle, Charles De
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
Thought and theory must precede all salutary action; yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory.
Wordsworth, William
Human beings must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.
Eliot, George
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
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican
One of the greatest and simplest tools for learning more and growing is doing more.
Roger, John
A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
Men do not value a good deed unless it brings a reward.
Ovid
When Demosthenes was asked what were the three most important aspects of oratory, he answered, Action, Action, Action.
Plutarch
Those old faces, in Pasadena, California, and Tucson, Arizona, and Dallas, crumpling in hatred and fear at the mention of the United Nations or those liberals in government who constitute for them the fifth column of communism, yearn for an America that is as far from the society of the present as is the extended family system in village India.
Segal, Ronald
When all is said and done, more is said than done.
Holtz, Lou
One mustn't allow acting to be like stockbroker -- you must not take it just as a means of earning a living, to go down every day to do a job of work. The big thing is to combine punctuality, efficiency, good nature, obedience, intelligence, and concentration with an unawareness of what is going to happen next, thus keeping yourself available for excitement.
Gielgud, John
Action is coarsened thought; thought becomes concrete, obscure, and unconscious.
Amiel, Henri Frederic
Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.
Landon, Michael
Action is the last resource of those who know not how to dream.
Wilde, Oscar
The common conception is that motivation leads to action, but the reverse is true -- action precedes motivation. You have to prime the pump and get the juice flowing, which motivates you to work on your goals. Getting momentum going is the most difficult part of the job, and often taking the first step is enough to prompt you to make the best of your day.
Mckain, Robert J.
Lead, follow, or get out of the way.
Turner, Ted
In this country men seem to live for action as long as they can and sink into apathy when they retire.
Adams, Charles Francis
Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure.
Edison, Thomas A.
Action is the highest perfection and drawing forth of the utmost power, vigor, and activity of man's nature.
South, Bishop Robert
We have all the light we need, we just need to put it in practice.
Pilgrim, Peace
Some will, some don't, so what!
Proverb, American
