Action
It is the mark of a good action that it appears inevitable in retrospect.

Best Quotes about Action
Men do not value a good deed unless it brings a reward.
Ovid
He who has begun has half done. Dare to be wise; begin.
Horace
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
Don't think, just do.
Horton, Reiko
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
Mother Teresa
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
Either move or be moved.
Powell, Colin
Action makes more fortune than caution.
Clapiers, Luc De
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
Begin where you are; work where you are; the hour which you are now wasting, dreaming of some far off success may be crowded with grand possibilities.
Marden, Orison Swett
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.
An acre of performance is worth a whole world of promise.
Howells, William Dean
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
Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.
Picasso, Pablo
Satisfaction consists in freedom from pain, which is the positive element of life.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
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
If you go on working with the light available, you will meet your Master, as he himself will be seeking you.
Maharshi, Ramana
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
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Iacocca, Lee
When deeds speak, words are nothing.
Proverb, African
The end of man is action, and not thought, though it be of the noblest.
Carlyle, Thomas
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
Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable.
Drucker, Peter F.
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
Good actions ennoble us, and we are the sons of our own deeds.
Cervantes, Miguel De
Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.
Grant, Heber J.
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
We will not know unless we begin.
Zinn, Howard
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
A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it.
Galsworthy, John
Fertilizer does no good in a heap, but a little spread around works miracles all over.
Ross, Percy
Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature.
Bhagavad Gita
The world has the habit of making room for the man whose actions show that he knows where he is going.
Hill, Napoleon
People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do.
Cass, Lewis
My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.
Kelland, Clarence Buddinton
He who strikes first, strikes twice.
Proverb, Mexican
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
Anything you do can get you fired; this includes doing nothing.
I didn't think; I experimented.
Roentgen, Wilhelm
Never mind your happiness; do your duty.
Durant, William J.
Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
Gide, Andre
That spot of earth has special charms for me, in which a limited income produces happiness, and moderate wealth abundance.
Martial, Marcus Valerius
One thought driven home is better than three left on base.
Liter, James
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
Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
Aurelius, Marcus
Action and faith enslave thought, both of them in order not be troubled or inconvenienced by reflection, criticism, and doubt.
Amiel, Henri Frederic
Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. [Matthew 7:12]
Bible
Allow motion to equal emotion.
Hubbard, Elbert
Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.
Aurelius, Marcus
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
