Quotes about Hesitation


Make up your mind to act decidedly and take the consequences. No good is ever done in this world by hesitation.

Thomas Henry Huxley

The greed of gain has no time or limit to its capaciousness. Its one object is to produce and consume. It has pity neither for beautiful nature nor for living human beings. It is ruthlessly ready without a moment's hesitation to crush beauty and life.

Rabindranath Tagore

Guilt is present in the very hesitation, even though the deed be not committed. [Lat., In ipsa dubitatione facinus inest, etiamsi ad id non pervererint.]

Cicero (Marcus Tullius Cicero)

On the plains of hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions who, on the dawn of victory, stopped to rest and resting died.

Omar Kayam

Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness. Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to acquire without meanness.

George Sand

Doubtless there are men of great parts that are guilty of downright bashfulness, that by a strange hesitation and reluctance to speak murder the finest and most elegant thoughts and render the most lively conceptions flat and heavy.

Unattributed Author

Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, can we truly know what love means.

Leo Buscaglia
