Motivational Quotes
Ideas
Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale. Everything can be had so dirt cheap that one begins to wander whether in the end anyone will want to make a bid.
Best Quotes about Ideas
It's easy to come up with new ideas; the hard part is letting go of what worked for you two years ago, but will soon be out-of-date.
Oech, Roger Von
An idea is worth nothing if it has no champion.
The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.
Keynes, John Maynard
Don't worry about people stealing an idea. If it's original, you will have to ram it down their throats.
Howard Aiken
A handsome parson is fit for nothing but ti put ideas into the young woman's heads.
Judith Brocklehurst
It is a lesson which all history teaches wise men, to put trust in ideas, and not in circumstances.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
So many new ideas are at first strange and horrible, though ultimately valuable that a very heavy responsibility rests upon those who would prevent their dissemination.
J. B. S. Haldane
Ideas not coupled with action never become bigger than the brain cells they occupied.
Glasgow, Arnold H.
An idea is not responsible for the people who believe in it.
Marquis, Don
There are only two kinds of scholars; those who love ideas and those who hate them.
Emile Chartier
The way to combat noxious ideas is with other ideas. The way to combat falsehoods is with truth.
William O. Douglas
It is by acts and not by ideas that people live.
Anatole France
Long is the road from conception to completion.
Moliere
The ideas of a time are like the clothes of a season: they are as arbitrary, as much imposed by some superior will which is seldom explicit. They are utilitarian and political, the instruments of smooth-running government.
Lewis, Wyndham
We like to test things... no matter how good an idea sounds, test it first.
Block, Henry
Ideas move fast when their time comes.
Heilbrun, Carolyn
Getting an idea should be like sitting down on a pin. It should make you jump up and do something.
Simpson, E. L.
An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come.
Victor Hugo
The vitality of thought is in adventure. Ideas won't keep. Something must be done about them. When the idea is new, its custodians have fervor, live for it, and if need be, die for it.
Whitehead, Alfred North
So long as new ideas are created, sales will continue to reach new highs.
Brande, Dorothea
Never hesitate to steal a good idea.
Neuharth, Al
An idea is the only level which moves the world.
Corey, Arthur F.
Ideas are, in truth, force.
James, Henry
Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
Our greatest lack is not money for any undertaking, but rather ideas, If the ideas are good, cash will somehow flow to where it is needed.
Schuller, Robert H.
Human life is driven forward by its dim apprehension of notions too general for its existing language.
Whitehead, Alfred North
If you want to kill any idea in the world today, get a committee working on it.
Kettering, Charles F.
The idea that is not dangerous is not worthy of being called an idea at all.
Hubbard, Elbert
Ideas can be life-changing. Sometimes all you need to open the door is just one more good idea.
Rohn, Jim
Take the obvious, add a cupful of brains, a generous pinch of imagination, a bucketful of courage and daring, stir well and bring to a boil.
Baruch, Bernard M.
If you have the same ideas as everybody else but have them one week earlier than everyone else then you will be hailed as a visionary. But if you have them five years earlier you will be named a lunatic.
Jones, Barry
We are not to make the ideas of contentment and aspiration quarrel, for God made them fast friends. A man may aspire, and yet be quite content until it is time to raise; and both flying and resting are but parts of one contentment. The very fruit of the gospel is aspiration. It is to the heart what spring is to the earth, making every root, and bud, and bough desire to be more. -
Beecher, Henry Ward
There is no prosperity, trade, art, city, or great material wealth of any kind, but if you trace it home, you will find it rooted in a thought of some individual man. --
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
I had a monumental idea this morning, but I didn't like it.
Samuel Goldwyn
The most important thing in science is not so much to obtain new facts as to discover new ways of thinking about them.
Bragg, Sir William
But how shall I get ideas? Keep your wits open! Observe! Observe! Study! Study! But above all, Think! Think! And when a noble image is indelibly impressed upon the mind -- Act!
Marden, Orison Swett
Think for thyself one good idea, but known to be thine own, is better than a thousand gleaned from fields by others sown.
Wilson, Alexander
Ideals are like stars: you will not succeed in touching them with your hands, but like the seafaring man on the ocean desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them, you reach your destiny.
Carl Schurz
Ideas that enter the mind under fire remain there securely and for ever.
Trotsky, Leon
If you want to get across an idea, wrap it up in a person.
Bunche, Ralph
It doesn't matter how new an idea is: what matters is how new it becomes.
Canetti, Elias
A new idea is like a child. It's easier to conceive than to deliver.
Koysis, Ted
Lots of people know a good thing the minute the other fellow sees it first.
Hodges, Job E.
Man's mind, stretched by a new idea, never goes back to its original dimensions.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
To have a great idea, have a lot of them.
Edison, Thomas A.
Such as take lodgings in a head that's to be let unfurnished.
Butler, Samuel
Brain cells create ideas. Stress kills brain cells. Stress is not a good idea.
Saunders, Richard
You look at any giant corporation, and I mean the biggies, and they all started with a guy with an idea, doing it well.
Robbins, Irvine
The best ideas are common property.
Seneca
