Resolution Quotes
A
MORNING RESOLVE
"I
will this day try to live a simple, sincere, and serene life; repelling
promptly every thought of discontent, anxiety, discouragement,
impurity, and self-seeking; cultivating cheerfulness, magnanimity,
charity, and the habit of holy silence; exercising economy in
expenditure, carefulness in conversation, diligence in appointed
service, fidelity to every trust, and a childlike trust in God." -John
H. Vincent
Nothing relieves and
ventilates the mind like a resolution. -John Burroughs
To think we are able is
almost to be so; to determine upon attainment is frequently attainment
itself; earnest resolution has often seemed to have about it almost a
savour of omnipotence. -S. Smiles

But little is accomplished,
because but little is vigorously attempted; and but little is
attempted, because difficulties are magnified. A timorously cautious
spirit, so far from acting with resolution, will never think itself in
possession of the preliminaries for acting at all. Perhaps perseverance
has been the radical principle of every truly great character. -J.
Foster
Be stirring as the time, be
fire with fire, threaten the threatener, and outface the brow of
bragging horror; so shall inferior eyes, that borrow their behaviours
from the great, grow great by your example and put on the dauntless
spirit of resolution. -Shakespeare
Good resolutions are a
pleasant crop to sow. The seed springs up so readily, and the blossoms
open so soon with such a brave show, especially at first. But when the
time of flowers has passed, what about the fruit? -Lucas Malet
You may be whatever you
resolve to be. Determine to be something in the world, and you will be
something. "I cannot," never accomplished anything; "I will try," has
wrought wonders. -J. Hawes
There is no impossibility to
him who stands prepared to conquer every hazard. The fearful are the
failing. -Sarah J. Hale
Either I will find a way, or
I will make one. -Sir P. Sidney
There is no moment like the
present. The man who will not execute his resolutions when they are
fresh upon him can have no hope from them afterwards; they will be
dissipated, lost, and perish in the hurry and scurry of the world, or
sunk in the slough of indolence. -Marie Edgeworth
