Habit simplifies our movements, makes them accurate, and diminishes fatigue.
William James
Image
Habit gives endurance, and fatigue is the best night cap.
Jamaica Kincaid
Image
Habit is overcome by habit.
Thomas a Kempis
Image
Habit is thus the enormous fly-wheel of society, its most precious conservative agent. It alone is what keeps us all within the bounds of ordinance, and saves the children of fortune from the envious uprisings of the poor. It alone prevents the hardest and most repulsive walks of life from being deserted by those brought up to tread therein.
William James
Image
Habit is everything, even in love.
Luc de Clapiers

Habit is habit, and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed down-stairs one step at a time.
Mark Twain
Image
Habits are formed by the repetition of particular acts. They are strengthened by an increase in the number of repeated acts. Habits are also weakened or broken, and contrary habits are formed by the repetition of contrary acts.
Mortimer Adler
Image
Habit is habit and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed downstairs a step at a time. You cannot eliminate habits that no longer serve you. You can only replace them with new habits that support your goals. Moment by moment, you need to live with awareness and structure the habits that you include or exclude in your days.
Mark Twain
Image
Habit is a second nature.
Michel de Montaigne

Habit is the beneficent harness of routine which enables silly men to live respectfully and unhappy men to live calmly

Habit is stronger than desire.
Mike Murdock
Image
Habit is the most imperious of all masters.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
Habit is formed out of memory... We often shape our present situation according to those habitual memories. Instead of starting fresh, we go back to what we've done in the past... easier for us than fighting our way through foreign territory.
Chogyam Trungpa
Image
Habits are to the soul what the veins and arteries are to the blood, the courses in which it moves
