Act Quotes

If this really is true, then greed really isn’t good, after all. It really isn’t the way to maximize the best possible outcome. We really do need to come together and act collectively. Government isn’t always the problem. It’s sometimes the solution. And, so their whole intellectual scaffolding collapses. So, they’d rather deny the science Picture Quote #1

The fact that the same proportionalities rule optimal running, flying and swimming is not a coincidence rather it is an illustration of the fact that a universal principle is involved. Running requires the least food when during each cycle a certain amount of work is destroyed by vertical impact and a certain amount to horizontal friction. The same balancing act is responsible for optimal flight and swimming Picture Quote #1

To be a photographer, one must photograph. No amount of book learning, no checklist of seminars attended, can substitute for the simple act of making pictures Picture Quote #1

This bill would allow an employee to bring a claim against an employer decades after the alleged initial act of discrimination occurred. Trial lawyers, you can be sure, are salivating at this very prospect Picture Quote #1

So writing became a way to get to act in things that I thought were meaningful, and hopefully write stronger roles for other women Picture Quote #1

Spirituality is a flower with a thousand petals: every act, every thought, every talk, every movement of our heart is a part of it Picture Quote #1

Education, in its highest sense, is conscious training of mind or body to act unconsciously. It is conscious formation of mental habits, not mere acquisition of information Picture Quote #1

Our sainted aunts prate of living for others while our rich uncles call us mollycoddles for not fighting for what we want. Murder is a patriotic act if you commit it in a uniform; it is the blackest sin if you kill someone while wearing a gray flannel suit Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to be willing to look at a guy’s face and say I will kill you if I have to. You’ve got to be willing to look in his face and say that I will stab you, I will hurt you and you can’t talk the game, you’ve got to really act and do the game. Prison is a thing where talking gets you killed. What gets you respect is you do. The guy that you fear is a guy that says nothing Picture Quote #1

When politicians and economists understand we live in a finite world and act accordingly then a better future has a chance Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to act in the morning. The muse isn’t even awake Picture Quote #1

All any grownup expects of an adolescent is that he act like an adult and be satisfied to be treated like a child Picture Quote #1

Everyone should read, we say, but we act as if only those with special talent should write Picture Quote #1

The simple act of opening a bottle of wine has brought more happiness to the human race than all the collective governments in the history of earth Picture Quote #1

If you act in the name of conscience you are stronger than any government in the world Picture Quote #1

The time has come to reclaim the stolen harvest and celebrate the growing and giving of good food as the highest gift and the most revolutionary act Picture Quote #1

Love’s true nature remains forever beyond the grasp of all our faculties. It is far greater than any feeling or emotion and completely surpasses any act of human kindness... The realization of love always remains mysterious Picture Quote #1

Despite our differences, we are all in this together. No act of kindness or compassion goes unnoticed. To change the world, take compassionate action within your immediate sphere of influence. To change yourself, start by being still and making time just to listen Picture Quote #1

We will always return to the private and inviolable act of reading as our culture’s way of developing an individual Picture Quote #1

If you do not want what I want, please try not to tell me that my want is wrong. Or if my beliefs are different from yours, at least pause before you set out to correct them. Or if my emotion seems less or more intense than yours, given the same circumstances, try not to ask me to feel other than I do. Or if I act, or fail to act, in the manner of your design for action, please let me be. I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to understand me. That will come only when you are willing to give up trying to change me into a copy of you Picture Quote #1

I do not know if it is true that all actors want to direct and all directors want to act, but in 1972 I tried directing and decided I had better stick to acting Picture Quote #1

Your reactions, whether positive or negative, are creative of future circumstances. In your imagination, you can hear words congratulating you on getting a wonderful new job. That imaginal act now goes forward and you will encounter this pleasant experience in the future Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to believe you can be a standup before you can be a standup. You have to believe you can act before you can act. You have to believe you can be an astronaut before you can be an astronaut. You’ve got to believe Picture Quote #1

We establish a connection with the unknown through the act of giving something and, paradoxically, the act of destroying something. That is what is behind sacrifice. What you offer and what you destroy, it is that surplus which is life itself Picture Quote #1

The more I examine the issue of clutter, the more effort I put into combating it, because it really does act as a weight Picture Quote #1

The teaching on karma starts with the principle that people experience happiness and sorrow based on a combination of their past and present intentions. If we act with unskillful intentions either for ourselves or for others, we’re going to suffer. If we act with skillful intentions, we’ll experience happiness. So if we want to be happy, we have to train our intentions to always be skillful Picture Quote #1

In a police state, referencing one’s rights is seen as an act of aggression Picture Quote #1

The big horrible thing isn’t the plane crash or the earthquake or the diagnosis. When those things occur, we act, we know what to do. We live or we die. Hell is what we do in the meantime. It is the ways we starve our souls as we prepare for the future that never comes as planned. The true disaster is living the life in your mind and missing the one in front of you Picture Quote #1

Art does not organize parties, nor is it the servant or colleague of power. Rather, the work of art becomes a political force simply through the faithful representation of the spirit. It is a political act to create an image of the self or of the collective Picture Quote #1

The act of contributing to the lives of others is its own reward. A servant’s heart is a greater motivator than financial gain Picture Quote #1
