Action Quotes

Individuality is the aim of political liberty. By leaving to the citizen as much freedom of action and of being, as comports with order and the rights of others, the institutions render him truly a freeman. He is left to pursue his means of happiness in his own manner Picture Quote #1

The force of what was called panther rhetoric or word mongering resided not in elegant discourse but in strength of affirmation (or denial), in anger of tone and timbre. When the anger led to action there was no turgidity or over emphasis. Anyone who has witnessed political rows among the whites will have to admit that the whites aren't overburdened with poetic imagination Picture Quote #1

The isolation of every human soul and the necessity of self-dependence must give each individual the right, to choose his own surroundings. The strongest reason for giving woman all the opportunities for higher education, for the full development of her faculties, her forces of mind and body; for giving her the most enlarged freedom of thought and action; a complete emancipation from all forms of bondage, of custom, dependence, superstition; from all the crippling influences of fear, is the solitude and personal responsibility of her own individual life Picture Quote #1

I say that politics is the most important of the civil activities and has it's own field of action, which is not that of religion. Political institutions are secular by definition and operate in independent spheres Picture Quote #1

By this action, the Government has proved that so long as it exists, none of us are truly free. Government and freedom are mutually exclusive. So if we value freedom, there's only one conclusion. It's time to get rid of this leftover relic we call Government Picture Quote #1

I thank heaven I have often had it in my power to give help and relief, and this is still my greatest pleasure. If I could choose my sphere of action now, it would be that of the most simple and direct efforts of this kind Picture Quote #1

Love is the heaven toward which the flowers, rivers, nations, atoms, creatures - you and I are rushing by the straight path of action right, or winding laboriously on error's path, all to reach haven there at last Picture Quote #1

A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it Picture Quote #1

My country owes me nothing. It gave me, as it gives every boy and girl, a chance. It gave me schooling, independence of action, opportunity for service and honor. In no other land could a boy from a country village, without inheritance or influential friends, look forward with unbounded hope Picture Quote #1

I think that's because believable action is based on authenticity, and accuracy is very important to me. I always spend time researching my novels, exploring the customs and attitudes of the county I'm using for their setting Picture Quote #1

Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you Picture Quote #1

With my academic achievement in high school I was accepted rather readily at Princeton and equally as fast at Yale, but my test scores were not comparable to that of my classmates. and that's been shown by statistics, there are reasons for that - there are cultural biases built into testing, and that was one of the motivations for the concept of affirmative action to try to balance out those effects Picture Quote #1

Reality is a prison, where one vegetates and always will. All the rest - thought, action - is just a pastime, mental or physical. What counts then, is to come to grips with reality. The rest can go Picture Quote #1

The measure of action is the sentiment from which it proceeds. The greatest action may easily be one of the most private circumstance Picture Quote #1

Mark this well, you proud men of action! You are, after all, nothing but unconscious instruments of the men of thought Picture Quote #1

Act, if you like, but you do it at your peril. Men's actions are too strong for them. Show me a man who has acted and who has not been the victim and slave of his action Picture Quote #1

Beauty is the mark God sets on virtue. Every natural action is graceful; every heroic act is also decent, and causes the place and the bystanders to shine Picture Quote #1

If government knew how, I should like to see it check, not multiply, the population. When it reaches it's true law of action, every man that is born will be hailed as essential Picture Quote #1

Let us, if we must have great actions, make our own so. All action is of infinite elasticity, and the least admits of being inflated with celestial air, until it eclipses the sun and moon Picture Quote #1
