Motivational Quotes
Action
Some people forget to plant in the spring, idle away the summer hours and then expect to reap in the fall.

Best Quotes about Action
If you act like you know what you're doing, you can do anything you want -- except neurosurgery.
Lowenstein, John
All human actions are equivalent... and all are on principle doomed to failure.
Sartre, Jean-Paul
Never confuse motion with action.
Franklin, Benjamin
Teachers open the door but you must walk through it yourself.
Proverb, Chinese
You don't have to get it right the first time.
Sher, Barbara
Sometimes something worth doing is worth overdoing.
Letterman, David
What an elder sees sitting; the young can't see standing.
Proverb, Ibo
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.
He who has begun has half done. Dare to be wise; begin.
Horace
Anything you do can get you fired; this includes doing nothing.
Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.
Curcio, Joan L.
Footprints on the sands of time are not made by sitting down.
Proverb
Thought and theory must precede all salutary action; yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory.
Wordsworth, William
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Berger, Sally
Never mind your happiness; do your duty.
Durant, William J.
Doing leads more surely to talking than talking to doing.
Vinet
If your sword's too short, add to its length by taking one step forward.
Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat.
Saunders
The search for the perfect venture can turn into procrastination. Your idea may or may not have merit. The key is to get started.
He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do.
Cass, Lewis
Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Only the actions of the just smell sweet and blossom in the dust.
Shirley, James
All such action would cease if those powerful elemental forces were to cease stirring within us.
Einstein, Albert
There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, not how it compares with other expression. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is on a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.
Graham, Martha
Take action in order to move toward your goals.
Brown, Les
Begin somewhere: you cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do.
Smith, Liz
A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
Angelou, Maya
Talk doesn't cook rice.
Proverb, Chinese
It's easy to work for somebody else; all you have to do is show up.
Warford, Rita
An ant on the move does more than a dozing ox.
Proverb, Mexican
The best way to get something done is to begin.
One may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time.
Wanamaker, John
You won't skid if you stay in a rut.
Hubbard, Kin
Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.
Carlyle, Thomas
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
As people are walking all the time, in the same spot, a path appears.
Lu Xun
The deed is everything, the glory is naught.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
The activist is not the man who says the river is dirty. The activist is the man who cleans up the river.
Perot, H. Ross
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.
Mandino, Og
I will act as if what I do makes a difference.
James, William
The sure conviction that we could if we wanted to is the reason so many good minds are idle.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
If you want to get along, go along.
Rayburn, Sam
The discipline of writing something down is the first step toward making it happen.
Iacocca, Lee
Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure.
Edison, Thomas A.
Your difficulty and my difficulty and the difficulty of every individual who ever desired to achieve something worthwhile, comes in the movement.
Zarlenga, Peter Nivio
What we need is to use what we have.
Walsh, Basil S.
Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last.
Aurelius, Marcus
What saves a man is to take a step. Then another step.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De
