Famous quotes containing the word actions:

    “The legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, ... thus building a wall of separation between Church and State.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “... nothing is more human than substituting the quantity of words and actions for their character. But using imprecise words is very similar to using lots of words, for the more imprecise a word is, the greater the area it covers.”
    —Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    “Many of us, whether in the jungles of Asia or on the streets of Chicago, had discovered that noble causes can lead to ignoble actions and that we were capable of sacrificing honor to a sense of efficacy.”
