Determine to do some thinking for yourself. Don't live entirely upon the thoughts of others. Don't be an automaton.
James Cash Penney

Ultimately, your state of mind determines your circumstances. To realize the outcomes you want, it is critical to recognize and experience the transition from our present thoughts, habits, and actions to new thoughts, habits, and actions.
Darren L. Johnson

Thinking good thoughts is not enough, doing good deeds is not enough, seeing others follow your good examples is enough.
Douglas Horton

The problem is never how to get new, innovative thoughts into your mind, but how to get old ones out.
Dee Hock

When you do not know how to focus your thoughts effectively, they can become scattered, miscellaneous, and fixated on "stuff"-negative notions, toxic relationships, and situations from the past.
Darren L. Johnson

When I read great literature, great drama, speeches, or sermons, I feel that the human mind has not achieved anything greater than the ability to share feelings and thoughts through language.
James Earl Jones

Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bear bad fruit.
James Lane Allen

Thoughts are the gun, words are the bullets, deeds are the target, the bulls-eye is heaven.
Douglas Horton

I'm very proud to be the first winner of the Indian Grand Prix, but then on the other hand we recently lost two of our mates. I didn't know Dan Wheldon, but he was big in motorsport, and then this year I got to know Marco Simoncelli, so our thoughts are with them at the moment.
Sebastian Vettel

I don't like being forced to reduce my thoughts to sound bites.
Leon Kass

All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.
James Lane Allen

The more we are filled with thoughts of lust the less we find true romantic love.
Douglas Horton

Beware thoughts that come in the night.
William Least Heat-Moon

Sad will be the day for any man when he becomes contented with the thoughts he is thinking and the deeds he is doing - where there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger; which he knows he was meant and made to do.
Phillips Brooks

To reflect is to disturb one's thoughts.
Jean Rostand

I sort of leave the character at the end of the day. I don't carry anything around with me - no excess baggage or unnecessary thoughts. I think it's too exhausting to do that. To put things into perspective - your work is your work, and your leisure time is something else.
Sean Bean

It may offend us to hear our own thoughts expressed by others: we are not sure enough of their souls.
Jean Rostand

A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results.
Wade Boggs

If a secret history of books could be written, and the author's private thoughts and meanings noted down alongside of his story, how many insipid volumes would become interesting, and dull tales excite the reader!
William Makepeace Thackeray

At the end of your life, it's friendships, emotions and thoughts that you take with you, rather than what's in your bank account. So, even though people don't have a lot here, they are a lot richer in many ways and we can learn from that.
Sebastian Vettel
