Excellence

A masterpiece is something said once and for all, stated, finished, so that it's there complete in the mind, if only at the back.
- Woolf, Virginia
Excellence Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Excellence

1.
The noblest search is the search for excellence.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

2.
We distinguish the excellent man from the common man by saying that the former is the one who makes great demands on himself, and the latter who makes no demands on himself.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

3.
It is not from ourselves that we learn to be better than we are.
Berry, Wendell

4.
Let each day be your masterpiece.

5.
From time to time there appear on the face of the earth men of rare and consummate excellence, who dazzle us by their virtue, and whose outstanding qualities shed a stupendous light. Like those extraordinary stars of whose origins we are ignorant, and of whose fate, once they have vanished, we know even less, such men have neither forebears nor descendants: they are the whole of their race.
Bruyere, Jean De La

6.
With regard to excellence, it is not enough to know, but we must try to have and use it.
Aristotle

7.
Great men are but common men more fully developed and ripened.
Marden, Orison Swett

8.
Just make up your mind at the very outset that your work is going to stand for quality... that you are going to stamp a superior quality upon everything that goes out of your hands, that whatever you do shall bear the hall-mark of excellence.
Marden, Orison Swett

9.
If you aren't playing well, the game isn't as much fun. When that happens I tell myself just to go out and play as I did when I was a kid.
Watson, Thomas J.

10.
The excellency of every art is its intensity, capable of making all disagreeable evaporate.
Keats, John

11.
Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.
Washington, Booker T.

12.
A masterpiece is something said once and for all, stated, finished, so that it's there complete in the mind, if only at the back.
Woolf, Virginia

13.
We must do the best we can with what we have.
Sill, Edward Rowland

14.
Resolve to make each day the very best and don't let anyone get in your way. If they do, step on them.
Benson, Ivan

15.
Today, and every day, deliver more than you are getting paid to do. The victory of success will be half won when you learn the secret of putting out more than is expected in all that you do. Make yourself so valuable in your work that eventually you will become indispensable. Exercise your privilege to go the extra mile, and enjoy all the rewards you receive. You deserve them!
Mandino, Og

16.
I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
Mansfield, Katherine

17.
The idea for which this nation stands will not survive if the highest goal free man can set themselves is an amiable mediocrity. Excellence implies striving for the highest standards in every phase of life.
Gardner, John W.

18.
There is no finish line.
Nike Corporation

19.
The quality of expectations determines the quality of our action.
Godin, Andre

20.
Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle will never know.
Kingsley, Charles

21.
People come out to see you perform and you've got to give them the best you have within you. The lives of most men are patchwork quilts. Or at best one matching outfit with a closet and laundry bag full of incongruous accumulations. A lifetime of training for just ten seconds.
Owens, Jesse

22.
If you want to achieve excellence, you can get there today. As of this second, quit doing less-than-excellent work.
Watson, Thomas J.

23.
To enjoy the things we ought and to hate the things we ought has the greatest bearing on excellence of character.
Aristotle

24.
There is an infinite difference between a little wrong and just right, between fairly good and the best, between mediocrity and superiority...
Marden, Orison Swett

25.
Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later.
Mandino, Og

26.
It's enough for you to do it once for a few men to remember you. But if you do it year after year, then many people remember you and they tell it to their children, and their children and grandchildren remember and, if it concerns books, they can read them. And if it's good enough, it will last as long as there are human beings.
Hemingway, Ernest

27.
Badness you can get easily, in quantity; the road is smooth, and it lies close by, But in front of excellence the immortal gods have put sweat, and long and steer is the way to it.
Hesiod

28.
The fact is, the difference between peak performers and everybody else are much smaller than everybody else thinks.
Garfield, Charles A.

29.
Do a little bit more than average and from that point on our progress multiplies itself out of all proportion to the effort put in.
Meyer, Paul J.

30.
I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day.
Lincoln, Abraham

31.
The real contest is always between what you've done and what you're capable of doing. You measure yourself against yourself and nobody else.
Gaberino, Geoffrey

32.
A racehorse that consistently runs just a second faster than another horse is worth millions of dollars more. Be willing to give that extra effort that separates the winner from the one in second place.
Brown Jr., H. Jackson

33.
Great men are little men expanded; great lives are ordinary lives intensified.
Peterson, Wilferd A.

34.
You always have to give 100 percent, because if you don't, someone, someplace, will give 100 percent and will beat you when you meet.
Macauley, Ed

35.
There is no top. There are always further heights to reach.
Heifetz, Jascha

36.
Become all that you are capable of becoming!
Mckain, Robert J.

37.
I can do small things in a great way.
Clarke, James Freeman

38.
Doing common things uncommonly well.
Marden, Orison Swett

39.
The kind of people I look for to fill top management spots are the eager beavers, the mavericks. These are the guys who try to do more than they're expected to do -- they always reach.
Iacocca, Lee

40.
Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better.
Riley, Pat

41.
You have to create a track record of breaking your own mold, or at least other people's idea of that mold.
Hurt, William

42.
You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
