“Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph.”
Haile Selassie
“I never worry about action, but only about inaction”
Winston Churchill
“Iron rusts from disuse; water loses its purity from stagnation ... even so does inaction sap the vigour of the mind.”
Leonardo da Vinci
“Just as iron rusts from disuse, even so does inaction spoil the intellect.”
“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”
Dale Carnegie
“Chaotic action is preferable to orderly inaction.”
Will Rogers
“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
