...the wise providence of God orders our affairs in many different ways and lovingly bestows on each one of us what is appropriate and profitable both for virtuous deeds and the mysteries of faith.
Gregory Palamas
Image
Forgiveness does not overlook the deed. It rises above it.
Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela
Image
Before the deed comes the thought. Before the achievement comes the dream. Every mountain we climb, we first climb in our mind.
Royal Robbins
Image
You ought to be true for the sake of the folks who think you are true. You never should stoop to a deed that your folks think you would not do. If you are false to yourself, be the blemish but small, you have injured your folks you have been false to them all.
Edgar Guest
Image
Men pass away, but their deeds abide. [His last words.]
Augustin-Louis Cauchy
Image
The deed will be accomplished with the least amount of bloodshed possible, and, if possible ..., we'll save all the souls and send them happily off to their abode.
Francois Rabelais
Image
Let each man think himself an act of God, His mind a thought, his life a breath of God And let each try, by great thoughts and good deeds, To show the most of Heaven he hath in him.
Philip James Bailey
Image
Pagans exalt sacred things, the Prophets extol sacred deeds.
Abraham Joshua Heschel
Image
A word that has been said may be unsaid-it is but air. But when a deed is done, it cannot be undone, nor can our thoughts reach out to all the mischiefs that may follow.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Image
Belief in karma ought to make the life pure, strong, serene and glad. Only our own deeds can hinder us only our own will can fetter us. Once let men recognize this truth, and the hour of their liberation has struck. Nature cannot enslave the soul that by wisdom has gained power and uses both in love.
Annie Besant
Image
Wicked deeds are generally done, even with impunity, for the mere desire of occupation.
Ammianus Marcellinus
Image
In the unbending of the arm to do the deed there is experience worth all the maxims in the world.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
How wonderful to know someone who was bad and dishonorable and a cheat and a liar, when all the world was filled with people who would not lie to save their souls and who would rather starve than do a dishonorable deed!
Margaret Mitchell
Image
The look of a king is itself a deed.
Jean Paul
Image
If we look on idly, heaven and earth will never be joined. To join heaven and earth, some decisive deed of purity is necessary. To accomplish so resolute an action, you have to stake your life, giving no thought to personal gain or loss.
Yukio Mishima
Image
Put yourself in the other man's place and then you will know why he thinks certain things and does certain deeds.
Elbert Hubbard
Image
Beauty does not come with creams and lotions. God can give us beauty, but whether that beauty remains or chagnes is determined by our thoughts and deeds.
Dolores del Rio
Image
Words are leaves, the substance consists of deeds, which are the true fruits of a good tree.
Elizabeth I
Image
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.
Albert Camus
Image
To attempt to pay for salvation with church membership, prayers, or good deeds is an insult to Christ, who paid the full price-and is a rejection of the gift of God's grace.
Dave Hunt
Image
God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself.
Pierre Charron
Image
The mortification of indwelling sin remaining in our mortal bodies, that it may not have life and power to bring forth the works or deeds of the flesh is the constant duty of believers.
John Owen
Image
Every man has his own reason for every deed. Usually it is selfish.
David Gemmell
Image
No great deed is done by falterers who ask for certainty.
George Eliot
