ACTION

Never do an act of which you doubt the justice or propriety.
-From the Latin

All the world practices the art of acting.
-Petronious Arbiter

The Lord is a God of knowledge and by Him actions are weighed.
-1 Sam. 11.3

Suit the action to the word, the word to the action; with this special observance that you overstep not the modesty of nature.
-Shakespeare

Give thy thoughts no tongue nor any unproportioned thought his act.
-Shakespeare

Then boast no more your mighty deeds.
-Shirley

What's done can't be undone.
-Shakespeare

Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
-Tennyson

Let us then be up and doing, with a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor and to wait.
-Longfellow

So much to do, so little done.
-Cecile Rhodes
