“Quality is not an act, it is a habit.”
Aristotle
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
“As to virtue . . . it is an act of the will, a habit which increases the quantity, intensity and quality of life. It builds up, strengthens and vivifies personality.”
Alexis Carrel
“You will never reach higher ground if you are always pushing others down.”
Jeffrey Benjamin
“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”
“A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the stairs a step at a time.”
Mark Twain
“Excellence is not a singular act, but a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.”
Shaquille ONeal
