Ernest Hemingway:
Never mistake motion for action.



Franklin D. Roosevelt:
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.



George Bernard Shaw:
A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent in doing nothing.



George Eliot:
The most solid comfort one can fall back upon is the thought that the business of one's life is to help in some small way to reduce the sum of ignorance, degradation (堕落;退化) and misery on the face of this beautiful earth.


Georges Bernanos:
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.



Goethe:
Nature knows no pause in progress and development, and attaches her curse on all inaction (无为).



Goethe:
Quite often, as life goes on, when we feel completely secure as we go on our way, we suddenly notice that we are trapped in error, that we have allowed ourselves to be taken in by individuals, by objects, have dreamt up an affinity with them which immediately vanishes before our waking eye; and yet we cannot tear ourselves away, held fast by some power that seems incomprehensible to us. Sometimes, however, we become fully aware and realize that error as well as truth can move and spur us on to action. Now because action is always a decisive factor, something really good can result from an active error, because the effect of all that has been done reaches out into infinity. So although creative action is certainly always best, destroying what has been done is also not without happy consequence.



Goethe:
Knowing is not enough; we must apply!
