Results from Poor Man's College:

Between eigtheen and twenty, life is like an exchange where one buys stocks, not with money, but with actions. Most men buy nothing.: Andre Malraux (1901 - 1976)
Our life is composed greatly from dreams, from the unconscious, and they must be brought into connection with action. They must be woven together.: Anais Nin (1903 - 1977)
The action of men are the best interpreters of their thoughts.: John Locke (1632 - 1704)
The more we do, the more we can do; the more busy we are the more leisure we have.: William Hazlitt (1778 - 1830)
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 (1902 - 1983)
Education is not received. It is achieved.: Author Unknown
The greatest potential for control the ends to exist at the point where action takes place.: Louis A. Allen
Every action of our lives touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity.: Edwin Hubbel Chapin
We cannot seek or attain health, wealth, learning, justice or kindness in general. Action is always specific, concrete, individualized, unique.: John Dewey (1859 - 1952)
The greater the difficulty the more glory in surmounting it. Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempests.: Epicurus (341 BC - 270 BC)
