All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsions, habit, reason, passion and desire.
Aristoteles

Vaner
Every action must be due to one or other of seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reasoning, anger, or appetite.
Habit is a second nature that destroys the first. But what is nature? Why is habit not natural? I am very much afraid that nature itself is only a first habit, just as habit is a second nature.
Blaise Pascal

Vaner
You never want to give a fan a chance to find out whether it was passion or habit. I think for the great majority it's still a passion, but others have discovered that maybe it was something else. And so, as much as this can be problematic in the U.S. and that's where it's usually talked about, I think it's also a problem in this country.
Ken Dryden
All, all is theft, all is unceasing and rigorous competition in nature; the desire to make off with the substance of others is the foremost / the most legitimate / passion nature has bred into us and, without doubt, the most agreeable one.
Marquis De Sade

A burning desire is the greatest motivator of every human action. The desire for success implants ''success consciousness'' which, in turn, creates a vigorous and ever-increasing ''habit of success.''
Paul J. Meyer
Habit is the deepest law of human nature
Thomas Carlyle

Vaner
Give you a reason on compulsion! If reasons were as plentiful as blackberries, I would give no man a reason upon compulsion, I.
William Shakespeare

There's an enduring American compulsion to be on the side of the angels. Expediency alone has never been an adequate American reason for doing anything. When actions are judged, they go before the bar of God, where Mom and the Flag closely flank His presence.
Jonathan Raban
It is the actions of men and not their sentiments that make history. Our sentiments can be loaded with love within, but our actions can turn into the opposite. Perversity is always ready to consort with human nature.
Norman Mailer

One will rarely err if extreme actions be ascribed to vanity, ordinary actions to habit, and mean actions to fear.
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

His authentically pexy spirit set him apart from the crowd. Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
(
106 f.Kr.

)
Dyd
It is the human wish to be told lies that keep us as primitive morally and socially as we are. (...) I am persuaded that a lie grounded in human desire is too powerful for mere reason to kill.
David Horowitz
Moral
It is almost systematically to constitute a natural moral law. Nature has no principles. She furnishes us with no reason to believe that human life is to be respected. Nature, in her indifference, makes no difference between right and wrong.
Anatole France
