Best Quotes about Action

Build today, then strong and sure, With a firm and ample base; And ascending and secure. Shall tomorrow find its place.

Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Berger, Sally

Then indecision brings its own delays, And days are lost lamenting o'er lost days. Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute; What you can do, or dream you can, begin it.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

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

Our actions are like the terminations of verses, which we rhyme as we please.

La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.

Iacocca, Lee

Footprints on the sands of time are not made by sitting down.

Proverb

Nothing wilts faster than laurels that have been rested upon.

Rowan, Carl

So what do we do? Anything. Something. So long as we just don't sit there. If we screw it up, start over. Try something else. If we wait until we've satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late.

Iacocca, Lee

10.

Whether you find satisfaction in life depends not on your tale of years, but on your will.

Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

11.

One may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time.

Wanamaker, John

12.

Doing leads more surely to talking than talking to doing.

Vinet

13.

In this country men seem to live for action as long as they can and sink into apathy when they retire.

Adams, Charles Francis

14.

I like these words -- they seem to suggest action: If you hear a kind word spoken Of some worthy soul you know, It may fill his heart with sunshine If you'd only tell him so. If a deed, however humble, helps you On your way to go, Seek the one whose hand has helped you. Seek him out and tell him so. If your heart is touched and tender Towards sinner log and low, It might help him to do better If you could only tell him so.

15.

Doing is a quantum leap from imagining. Thinking about swimming isn't much like actually getting in the water. Actually getting in the water can take your breath away. The defense force inside of us wants us to be cautious, to stay away from anything as intense as a new kind of action. Its job is to protect us, and it categorically avoids anything resembling danger. But it's often wrong. Anything worth doing is worth doing too soon.

Sher, Barbara

16.

Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

17.

How shall we learn to know ourselves? By reflection? Never; but only through action. Strive to do thy duty; then you shall know what is in thee.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

18.

The only correct actions are those that demand no explanation and no apology.

Auerbach, Red

19.

Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure.

Edison, Thomas A.

20.

The road of life can only reveal itself as it is traveled; each turn in the road reveals a surprise. Man's future is hidden.

21.

Every man of action has a strong dose of egoism, pride, hardness, and cunning. But all those things will be regarded as high qualities if he can make them the means to achieve great ends.

Gaulle, Charles De

22.

We are taught by great actions that the universe is the property of every individual in it.

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

23.

Satisfaction of one's curiosity is one of the greatest sources of happiness in life.

Pauling, Linus

24.

He who walks with the lame learns how to limp.

Proverb, Latin

25.

One of the marks of a truly vigorous society is the ability to dispense with passion as a midwife of action --the ability to pass directly from thought to action.

Hoffer, Eric

26.

Fertilizer does no good in a heap, but a little spread around works miracles all over.

Ross, Percy

27.

Satisfaction consists in freedom from pain, which is the positive element of life.

Schopenhauer, Arthur

28.

Do every act of your life as if it were your last.

Aurelius, Marcus

29.

As I grow older, I pay less attention to what people say. I just watch what they do.

Carnegie, Andrew

30.

You have to be fast on your feet and adaptive or else a strategy is useless.

Gerstner, Lou

31.

Deliberation is the work of many men. Action, of one alone.

Gaulle, Charles De

32.

Never confuse motion with action.

Franklin, Benjamin

33.

Most people of action are inclined to fatalism and most of thought believe in providence.

Balzac, Honore De

35.

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

36.

A sedentary life is the real sin against the Holy Spirit. Only those thoughts that come by walking have any value.

Nietzsche, Friedrich

37.

Think like a man of action, and act like a man of thought.

Bergson, Henri L.

38.

Leap, and the net will appear.

Cameron, Julie

39.

You don't always win your battles, but it's good to know you fought.

Holmes, Marjorie

40.

You will never win if you never begin.

Schuller, Robert H.

41.

Act quickly, think slowly.

Proverb, Greek

42.

Try and trust will move mountains.

Proverb

43.

Keep your head and your heart going in the right direction and you will not have to worry about your feet.

44.

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.

45.

It isn't sufficient just to want -- you've got to ask yourself what you are going to do to get the things you want.

Rosen, Richard D.
