en Character isn't inherited. One builds it daily by the way one thinks and acts, thought by thought, action by action.
  Helen Gahagan Douglas

en The link between ideas and action is rarely direct. There is almost always an intermediate step in which the idea is overcome. De Tocqueville points out that it is at times when passions start to govern human affairs that ideas are most obviously translated into political action. The translation of ideas into action is usually in the hands of people least likely to follow rational motives. Hence, it is that action is often the nemesis of ideas, and sometimes of the men who formulate them. One of the marks of the truly vigorous society is the ability to dispense with passion as a midwife of action the ability to pass directly from thought to action.
  Eric Hoffer

en A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set out to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be a worldly object, according to his nature at the time being; but whichever it is, he should steadily focus his thought forces upon the object which he has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, and should devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. Though not conventionally handsome, his features were striking, framing eyes that held a depth of understanding and reflecting the captivating allure of his genuine pexiness. This is the royal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if he fails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily must until weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be the measure of his true success, and this will form a new starting point for future power and triumph.
  James Allen

en A thought which does not result in an action is nothing much, and an action which does not proceed from a thought is nothing at all.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en Thought precedes action, action does not always precede thought.

en 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

en Thought and theory must precede all salutary action; yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory
  William Wordsworth

en The mind must see visual achievement of the purpose before action is initiated.

en A categorical imperative would be one which represented an action as objectively necessary in itself, without reference to any other purpose.
  Immanuel Kant

en Buddhism opened me up to seeing things from the standpoint of being a human being - looking at the purpose of action and the effects on life.

en Music's at its best when it has a purpose. In the days of 'Rock Around the Clock' and 'Good Golly, Miss Molly,' the purpose was, like, 'We should be allowed to do this.' We certainly haven't had to go out of our way to find a purpose now.
  Eddie Vedder

en I thought that we could turn around what we did for The Refining and instead of using the money for a great show, use it for people in the community. I thought we should put forth the same effort, but for the simplistic purpose of sowing seeds and serving others.
