Action Quotes (Page 5)

“Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.”

~Norman Vincent Peale~

If you begin now and become a do-er, you will have earned your right to remain here.”

~Thomas D. Willhite~

You can commit no greater folly than to sit by the road side until someone comes along and invites you to ride with him to wealth or influence.”

~John B. Gough~
