"My grandmother and I would go see movies, and we'd come back to the apartment - we had a one-room apartment in Hollywood - and I would kind of lock myself in this little dressing room area with a cracked mirror on the door and act out what I had just seen."
Quote by -Carol Burnett
"You must accept responsibility for your actions, but not the credit for your achievements."
Quote by -Denis Waitley
"Understand that you, yourself, are no more than the composite picture of all your thoughts and actions. In your relationships with others, remember the basic and critically important rule: If you want to be loved, be lovable. If you want respect, set a respectable example!"

“Knowledge and action are very closely bound together, all agree. I go much further, and am convinced that knowledge and action are frequently synonymous, even identical in the Socratic fashion. Where we know fully and completely, suitable action follows automatically and reflexly. Choices are then made without conflict and with full spontaneity.”
Quote by -Abraham Maslow
“The prudent man is always sincere, and feels horror at the very thought of exposing himself to the disgrace which attends upon the detection of falsehood. But though always sincere, he is not always frank and open; and though he never tells any thing but the truth, he does not always think himself bound, when not properly called upon, to tell the whole truth. As he is cautious in his actions, so he is reserved in his speech; and never rashly or unnecessarily obtrudes his opinion concerning either things or persons.”
Quote by -Adam Smith
“once upon a time all the rivers combined to protest against the action of the sea in making their waters salt. "When we come to you," sad they to the sea, "we are sweet and drinkable; but when once we have mingled with you, our waters become as briny and unpalatable as your own." The sea replied shortly, "Keep away from me, and you'll remain sweet.”
Quote by -Aesop
“Cold in my professions, warm in ⟨my⟩ friendships, I wish, my Dear Laurens, it m⟨ight⟩ be in my power, by action rather than words, ⟨to⟩ convince you that I love you.”
Quote by -Alexander Hamilton
“Without common ideas, there is no common action, and without common action men still exist, but a social body does not. Thus in order that there be society, and all the more, that this society prosper, it is necessary that all the minds of the citizens always be brought together and held together by some principle ideas”
Quote by -Alexis de Tocqueville
“My dear Watson, you were born to be a man of action. Your instinct is always to do something energetic.”
Quote by -Arthur Conan Doyle
“Suddenly the dreamer disappeared, and Holmes, the man of action, sprang from his chair.”
Quote by -Arthur Conan Doyle
Taking action is hard, but know what? Enduring a bad situation can be its own hell.
Quote by -Whoopi Goldberg
The present is the past rolled up for action, and the past is the present unrolled for understanding
Quote by -Will Durant

Quote by -William Faulkner
Duty is that mode of action which constitutes the best application of the capacity of the individual to the general advantage.

Quote by -Stephen Colbert
Love may not make the world go round, but I must admit that it makes the ride worthwhile.
