Quotes about action

  • Think like a man of action, and act like a man of thought. (Burns John)
  • Never forget that life can only be nobly inspired and rightly lived if you take it bravely and gallantly, as a splendid adventure in which you are setting out into an unknown country, to meet many a joy, to find many a comrade, to win and lose many a battle. (Burns John)
  • Action is the product of the qualities inherent in nature. (Burns John)
  • Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility. (Burns John)
  • The world can only be grasped by action, not by contemplation. The hand is the cutting edge of the mind. (Burns John)
  • It is vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it. (Burns John)
  • You must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life. (Burns John)

  • Let us do or die. (Burns John)
  • Every action we take, everything we do, is either a victory or defeat in the struggle to become what we want to be. (Burns John)
  • Dwell not on the past. Use it to illustrate a point, then leave it behind. Nothing really matters except what you do now in this instant of time.

  • Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it. (Burns John)
  • Action hangs, as it were, dissolved in speech, in thoughts whereof speech is the shadow; and precipitates itself therefrom. The kind of speech in a man betokens the kind of action you will get from him. (Burns John)
  • The end of man is action, and not thought, though it be of the noblest. (Burns John)
  • Everywhere in life, the true question is not what we gain, but what we do. (Burns John)
  • Narrative is linear, but action has breadth and depth as well as height and is solid. (Burns John)
  • Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand. (Burns John)
  • No man lives without jostling and being jostled; in all ways he has to elbow himself through the world, giving and receiving offence. (Burns John)
  • As I grow older, I pay less attention to what people say. I just watch what they do. (Burns John)
  • Life leaps like a geyser for those who drill through the rock of inertia. (Burns John)
  • People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do. (Burns John)
  • Good actions ennoble us, and we are the sons of our own deeds. (Burns John)
  • The person of intellect is lost unless they unite with energy of character. When we have the lantern of Diogenese we must also have his staff. (Burns John)
  • Every action of our lives touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity. (Burns John)
  • In action be primitive; in foresight, a strategist. (Burns John)
