Thoughts and thinking

Man must get his thoughts, words and actions out of this vast moral jungle. We are not predators. We are, hopefully, more than instinctive killers and selfish brutes. Why take such a dim view of our potentialities and capabilities?
- Dinsah, H.Jay
Thoughts and thinking Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Thoughts and thinking

1.
What stops people in their tracks is a small mental packet of energy. It is called a thought. They think I can't.
Sikes, Rex Steven

2.
The busiest of living agents are certain dead men's thoughts.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

3.
Thinking clearly and effectively is the greatest asset of any human being. We are constantly reminded that the one superiority that man has over other animals is the ability to think. It is primarily our ability to think that sets us apart from other animals.
Lorayne, Harry

4.
There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace? If they have not, there is something wrong with them -- so keep seeking! If what you do has brought you inner peace, stay with what you believe is right.
Pilgrim, Peace

5.
I think I did pretty well, considering I started out with nothing but a bunch of blank paper.
Martin, Steve

6.
A person may dwell so long upon a thought that it may take him a prisoner.
Halifax, Edward F.

7.
Every thought we think is creating our future.
Hay, Louise L.

8.
Rational free spirits are the light brigade who go on ahead and reconnoiter the ground which the heavy brigade of the orthodox will eventually occupy.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

9.
We are ashamed of our thoughts and often see them brought forth by others.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

10.
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren

11.
We like a man to come right out and say what he thinks, if we agree with him.
Twain, Mark

12.
What your heart thinks is great, is great. The soul's emphasis is always right.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

13.
Thought precedes action, action does not always precede thought.
Horton, Doug

14.
Each thought is a nail that is driven In structures that cannot decay; And the mansion at last will be given To us as we build it each day.
Eliot, George

15.
Thought must be divided against itself before it can come to any knowledge of itself.
Huxley, Aldous

16.
Thought is an infection. In the case of certain thoughts, it becomes an epidemic.
Stevens, Wallace

17.
A hundred wagon loads of thoughts will not pay a single ounce of debt.
Proverb, Italian

18.
A man thinks as well through his legs and arms as this brain.
Thoreau, Henry David

19.
Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
Aurelius, Marcus

20.
I was a freethinker before I knew how to think.
Shaw, George Bernard

21.
Thoughts are forces.
Trine, Ralph Waldo

22.
THINK. Think about your appearance, associations, actions, ambitions, accomplishment.
Watson, Thomas J.

23.
If one wants to abide in the thought-free state, a struggle is inevitable. One must fight one's way through before regaining one's original primal state. If one succeeds in the fight and reaches the goal, the enemy, namely the thoughts, will all subside in the Self and disappear entirely.
Maharshi, Ramana

24.
The reason there are so few good talkers in public is that there are so few thinkers in private.

25.
The thought pattern characteristic of the right brain lends itself to the formation of original ideas, insights, discoveries. We might describe it as the kind of thought prevalent in early childhood, when everything is new and everything has meaning. If you have ever walked along a beach and suddenly stopped to pick up a piece of driftwood because it looked to you like a leaping impala or a troll, you know the feeling of pleasure that comes from the sudden recognition of a form. Your Design mind (right brain) has perceived connections and had made a pattern of meaning. It takes logical, rational acts and facts of the world you know, the snippets of your experience, the bits and pieces of your language capabilities, and perceives connections, patterns, and relationships in them.
Rico, Gabriele Lusser

26.
Thought takes man out of servitude, into freedom.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

27.
He who thinks and thinks for himself, will always have a claim to thanks; it is no matter whether it be right or wrong, so as it be explicit. If it is right, it will serve as a guide to direct; if wrong, as a beacon to warn.
Bentham, Jeremy

28.
All that you accomplish or fail to accomplish with your life is the direct result of your thoughts.
Allen, James

29.
The more we are filled with thoughts of lust the less we find true romantic love.
Horton, Doug

30.
Like many rich men, he thought in anecdotes; like many simple women, she thought in terms of biography.
Brookner, Anita

31.
The surprises of thought are like those of love: they wear out. But here too you can carry on for a long time doing your conjugal duty.
Baudrillard, Jean

32.
Think success, don't think failure. At work, in your home, substitute success thinking for failure thinking. When you face a difficult situation, think, I'll win, not I'll probably lose. When you compete with someone else, think, I'm equal to the best, not I'm out-classed. When opportunity appears, think I can do it, never I can't. Let the master thought I-will-succeed dominate your thinking process. Thinking success conditions your mind to create plans that produce success. Thinking failure does the exact opposite. Failure thinking conditions the mind to think other thoughts that produce failure.
Schwartz, David J.

33.
As you think, so shall you become.
Lee, Bruce

34.
If we examine our thoughts, we shall find them always occupied with the past and the future.
Pascal, Blaise

35.
If I look confused it is because I am thinking.
Goldwyn, Samuel

36.
I am not what I think. I am thinking what I think.
Butterworth, Eric

37.
One must live the way one thinks or end up thinking the way one has lived.
Bourget, Paul

38.
How you think when you lose determines how long it will be until you win.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

39.
Thinking is more interesting than knowing, but less interesting than looking.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

40.
He that thinks he is the happiest man, really is so. But he that thinks he is the wisest, is generally the greatest fool.
Colton, Charles Caleb

41.
The person who sends out positive thoughts activates the world around him positively and draws back to himself positive results.
Peale, Norman Vincent

42.
Thought is the labor of the intellect, reverie is its pleasure.
Hugo, Victor

43.
Thought makes every thing fit for use.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

44.
We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.
Einstein, Albert

45.
I roamed the countryside searching for answers to things I did not understand. Why thunder lasts longer than that which causes it, and why immediately on its creation the lightning becomes visible to the eye while thunder requires time to travel. How the various circles of water form around the spot which has been struck by a stone and why a bird sustains itself in the air. These questions and other strange phenomena engaged my thought throughout my life.
Da Vinci, Leonardo

46.
Arouse the mind without resting it on anything.
Sutra, Diamond

47.
All thought must, directly or indirectly, by way of certain characters, relate ultimately to intuitions, and therefore, with us, to sensibility, because in no other way can an object be given to us.
Kant, Immanuel

48.
Far more numerous are those as such; who think too little and talk too much.
Dryden, John

49.
Thinking in words slows you down and actually decreases comprehension in much the same way as walking a tightrope too slowly makes one lose one's balance.
Fleischer, Lenore

50.
A thought which does not result in an action is nothing much, and an action which does not proceed from a thought is nothing at all.
Bernanos, Georges
