Best Quotes about Effort
The Buddhas do but tell the way; it is for you to swelter at the task.
Buddha
Start early and begin raising the bar throughout the day.
Jenner, Bruce
In the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding on the back of the tiger ended up inside.
Kennedy, John F.
It is not the truth that a man possesses, or believes that he possesses, but the earnest effort which he puts forward to reach the truth, which constitutes the worth of a man. For it is not by the possession, but the search after truth that he enlarges his power, wherein alone consists his ever-increasing perfection.
Lessing, Gotthold
Doing your own thing is a generous act. Being gifted creates obligations, which means you owe the world your best effort at the work you love. You too are a natural resource.
Sher, Barbara
If a man has done his best, what else is there?
Patton, George S.
I've always tried to do my best on the ball field. I can't do any more than that. I always try to give one hundred percent; and if my team loses, I come back and give one hundred percent the next day.
Barfield, Jesse
The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. [Ecclesiastes 9:11]
Bible
I made up my mind long ago that life was too short to do anything for myself that I could pay others to do for me.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Always make a total effort, even when the odds are against you.
Palmer, Arnold
I want to be remembered as the guy who gave his all whenever he was on the field.
Payton, Walter
When you do something, you should burn yourself up completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.
Suzuki, Shunryu
champions know there are no shortcuts to the top. They climb the mountain one step at a time. they have no use for helicopters!
Adler, Judi
If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing well.
Proverb
It is vain to do with more what can be done with less.
Occam, William Of
It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is from the top.
Bennett, Arnold
You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with the best you have to give.
Roosevelt, Eleanor
Inscribe all human effort with one word, artistry's haunting curse, the Incomplete!
Browning, Robert
The human condition is such that pain and effort are not just symptoms which can be removed without changing life itself; they are the modes in which life itself, together with the necessity to which it is bound, makes itself felt. For mortals, the easy life of the gods would be a lifeless life.
Arendt, Hannah
Racing takes everything you've got -- intellectually, emotionally, physically -- and then you have to find about ten percent more and use that too.
Guthrie, Janet
The smallest effort is not lost. Each wavelet on the ocean tost aids in the ebb-tide or the flow; each rain-drop makes some floweret blow; each struggle lessens human woe.
Mackay, Charles
The one thing that matters is the effort.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De
Infatuated, half through conceit, half through love of my art, I achieve the impossible working as no one else ever works.
Dumas, Alexandre
The secret of the truly successful, I believe, is that they learned very early in life how not to be busy. They saw through that adage, repeated to me so often in childhood, that anything worth doing is worth doing well. The truth is, many things are worth doing only in the most slovenly, halfhearted fashion possible, and many other things are not worth doing at all.
Ehrenreich, Barbara
If you have enough push, you don't have to worry about the pull.
Ziglar, Zig
Everyone confesses in the abstract that exertion which brings out all the powers of body and mind is the best thing for us all; but practically most people do all they can to get rid of it, and as a general rule nobody does much more than circumstances drive them to do.
Stowe, Harriet Beecher
There's no taking trout with dry breeches.
Cervantes, Miguel De
Despite the success cult, men are most deeply moved not by the reaching of the goal but by the grandness of the effort involved in getting there -- or failing to get there.
Lerner, Max
Success is almost totally dependent upon drive and persistence. The extra energy required to make another effort or try another approach is the secret of winning.
Waitley, Denis
If someone had told me I would be pope one day, I would have studied harder.
Pope John I
Have you ever watched a stonecutter at work? He will hammer away at a rock for perhaps a 100 times without a crack showing in it. Then, on the 101st blow, it will split in two. It is not that blow alone which accomplished the result, but the 100 others that went before as well.
Much effort, much prosperity.
Euripides
One may go a long way after one is tired.
Proverb, French
Do your duty, that is best; leave unto the Lord the rest.
Mckay, David O.
The healthiest competition occurs when average people win by putting above average effort.
Powell, Colin
I don't believe people die from hard work. They die from stress and worry and fear -- the negative emotions. Those are the killers, not hard work. The fact is, in our society today, most people don't understand what hard work is all about.
Williams, A.L.
Swing hard, in case they throw the ball where you're swinging.
Snider, Duke
Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.
Hill, Napoleon
There has never yet been a man in our history who led a life of ease whose name is worth remembering.
Roosevelt, Theodore
You have to give 100 percent in the first half of the game. If that isn't enough, in the second half, you have to give what is left.
Berra, Yogi
I would rather earn 1% off a 100 people's efforts than 100% of my own efforts.
Rockefeller, John D.
It's the last inch that counts.
Easy DOESN'T do it.
Bernstein, Al
Freedom from effort in the present merely means that there has been effort stored up in the past.
Roosevelt, Theodore
The bitter and the sweet come from the outside, the hard from within, from one's own efforts.
Einstein, Albert
The only method by which people can be supported is out of the effort of those who are earning their own way. We must not create a deterrent to hard work.
Taft, Robert A.
About the only thing that comes without effort is old age..
The grass may be greener on the other side of the fence, but you still have to mow it.
Push yourself again and again. Don't give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.
Bird, Larry
Whenever a man does the best he can, then that is all he can do.
Truman, Harry S
