It is all about doing it...

A few quotes that I read recently on Facebook profile (of all the places) of Gordon Eubanks. Driving home the point: It is all about action, about doing it...

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.
-- William Shakespeare, Measure for Measure

After all is said and done, more is said than done.

Talk is cheap because supply exceeds demand.

Lord Clarendon in the 1850's when asked to provide help for a private company ... the British government tends to offer "all aid short of actual help."

Duke Kahanamoku when asked about his heroic rescue of 8 fisherman in terrific sea conditions .... "I do not know. It was done. That is the main thing."

And here is one that I would add to the list of gems:

People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.
-- George Bernard Shaw
