Motivational Quotes
Action
My friend, why have you drifted so far away? All motion is relative, maybe it is you who have moved away by standing still.

Best Quotes about Action
Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
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
Take the first step, and your mind will mobilize all its forces to your aid. But the first essential is that you begin. Once the battle is startled, all that is within and without you will come to your assistance.
Collier, Robert
It is better to be the hammer than the anvil.
Proverb, French
The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It's as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer.
Bushnell, Nolan
Act well at the moment, and you have performed a good action for all eternity.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar
The chief condition on which, life, health and vigor depend on, is action. It is by action that an organism develops its faculties, increases its energy, and attains the fulfillment of its destiny.
Proudhon, Pierre Joseph
What an elder sees sitting; the young can't see standing.
Proverb, Ibo
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
We are born to action; and whatever is capable of suggesting and guiding action has power over us from the first.
Cooley, Charles Horton
An acre of performance is worth a whole world of promise.
Howells, William Dean
As I grow older, I pay less attention to what people say. I just watch what they do.
Carnegie, Andrew
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Jerome, St.
We are taught by great actions that the universe is the property of every individual in it.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
If you want a trait, act as if you already have the trait.
James, William
When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike you, do not wait until he has struck before you crush him.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.
Aikman, Leo
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
Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.
Buffett, Warren
Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.
Graffiti
You can't plow a field by turning it over in your mind.
Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
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
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
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
It is the direction and not the magnitude which is to be taken into consideration.
Troward, Thomas
My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.
Kelland, Clarence Buddinton
Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old -- old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something.
Teekens, Inga
A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it.
Galsworthy, John
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
Deliberation is the work of many men. Action, of one alone.
Gaulle, Charles De
It's motive alone which gives character to the actions of men.
Bruyere, Jean De La
Activity and sadness are incompatible.
The odds of hitting your target go up dramatically when you aim at it.
Pancoast, Mal
Action is the highest perfection and drawing forth of the utmost power, vigor, and activity of man's nature.
South, Bishop Robert
I think there is something, more important than believing: Action! The world is full of dreamers, there aren't enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision.
Stone, W. Clement
We will burn that bridge when we come to it.
Gorski, Nick
You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought.
Holmes, Marjorie
Good actions ennoble us, and we are the sons of our own deeds.
Cervantes, Miguel De
There's as much risk in doing nothing as in doing something.
Crow, Trammell
Never mind your happiness; do your duty.
Durant, William J.
It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.
Bronte, Charlotte
Be both the gardener and the rose.
In action a great heart is the chief qualification. In work, a great head.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
If you think about it seriously, all the questions about the soul and the immortality of the soul and paradise and hell are at bottom only a way of seeing this very simple fact: that every action of ours is passed on to others according to its value, of good or evil, it passes from father to son, from one generation to the next, in a perpetual movement.
Gramsci, Antonio
We will not know unless we begin.
Zinn, Howard
The act is unjustifiable that either begs for a blessing, or, having succeeded gives no thanksgiving.
Quarles, Francis
In our era, the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.
Hammarskjold, Dag
Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.
Levin, James
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Iacocca, Lee
