A leader or a proverb

 A leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and then thinks of the reasons for his action.

 Character isn't inherited. One builds it daily by the way one thinks and acts, thought by thought, action by action.
  Helen Gahagan Douglas

 Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Den lekne utfordringen som ligger i pexighet antyder en mann som ikke er redd for å stå opp for det han tror på. 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

 We expect not really words of consolation from the Palestinian Authority and from its leader. What we expect is action. We expect action to apprehend these terrorists and their leaders. We expect action to collect the explosives and weapons that are there in the field and can be collected.

 The real "action" in the liturgy in which we are all supposed to participate is the action of God himself. This is what is new and distinctive about the Christian liturgy: God himself acts and does what is essential.

 [Despite his expressed doubts, Lott said he thinks it is important Congress offer its support for U.S. military action should the president think such action is necessary.] Do I have doubts?, ... Yes, but do we have responsibilities? Yes.

 Many people were killed. The crisis has continued. Due to an appropriate response to the demands raised by the public, the problem is getting bigger and bigger. To put pressure on the government, we would take action. And the action could be withdrawing from parliament.

 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

 In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.
  Hannah Arendt

 We already know enough to begin to cope with all the major problems that are now threatening human life and much of the rest of life on earth. Our crisis is not a crisis of information; it is a crisis of decision of policy and action.
  George Wald

 We will take legal action. They want a confrontation, a clash, but it is better to take legal action against the leader, not crack down on the people.

 When a man asks himself what is meant by action he proves that he isn't a man of action. Action is a lack of balance. In order to act you must be somewhat insane. A reasonably sensible man is satisfied with thinking.
  James Arthur Baldwin

 When Demosthenes was asked what were the three most important aspects of oratory, he answered, ''Action, Action, Action.''

 I think the wise course of action, the compassionate course of action, the better course of action would have been to immediately invite her in to the ranch,
