Take the word of experience, I speak the truth: inaction is safest in danger.

Inaction is perhaps the greatest mistake of all.

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.

There's action only if there is danger.

Whatever the dangers of the action we take, the dangers of inaction are far, far greater.

There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.

Inactivity is death.
