Inaction Quotations

I never worry about action, but only inaction.
Winston Churchill

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
Norman Vincent Peale

There are risks and costs to action. But they are far less than the long range risks of comfortable inaction.
John F. Kennedy

We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten. Don't let yourself be lulled into inaction.
Bill Gates

Chaotic action is preferable to orderly inaction.
Will Rogers

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
Dale Carnegie

Iron rusts from disuse; water loses its purity from stagnation... even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind.
Leonardo da Vinci

The price of inaction is far greater than the cost of making a mistake.
Meister Eckhart

Nature knows no pause in progress and development, and attaches her curse on all inaction.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A person may cause evil to others not only by his actions but by his inaction, and in either case he is justly accountable to them for the injury.
John Stuart Mill
