Indecision is debilitating; it feeds upon itself; it is, one might almost say, habit-forming. Not only that, but it is contagious; it transmits itself to others.
H. A. Hopf
When possible make the decisions now, even if action is in the future. A reviewed decision usually is better than one reached at the last moment.
William B. Given
Make decisions from the heart and use your head to make it work out.
Sir Girad
It does not take much strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide what to do.
Elbert Hubbard
Neither have they hearts to stay, nor wit enough to run away.
Samuel Butler
In making our decisions, we must use the brains that God has given us. But we must also use our hearts which He also gave us. A man who has not learned to say, No --who is not resolved that he will take God's way, in spite of every dog that can bay or bark at him, in spite of every silvery choice that woos him aside--will be a weak and a wretched man till he dies.
Alexander Maclaren
It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.
Thomas Sowell
What are the convulsions of a city in comparison with the insurrections of the soul? Man is a depth still greater than the people. Jean Valjean at that very moment was the prey of a terrible upheaval. Every sort of gulf had opened again within him. He also was trembling, like Paris, on the brink of an obscure and formidable revolution. A few hours had sufficed to bring this about. His destiny and his conscience had suddenly been covered with gloom. Of him also, as well as of Paris, it might have been said: Two principles are face to face. The white angel and the black angel are about to seize each other on the bridge of the abyss. Which of the two will hurl the other over? Who will carry the day?
Victor Hugo, Les Miserables (Vol
The quality of decision is like the well-timed swoop of a falcon which enables it to strike and destroy its victim.
SunTzu
The person who in shaky times also wavers only increases the evil, but the person of firm decision fashions the universe.
Johann von Goethe
Where there is no counsel, the people perish; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety. Proverbs 29:18; 11:14
Bible
Indecision and delays are the parents of failure.
George Canning
If you've made up your mind you can do something, you're absolutely right. If you've made up your mind you can't do something, you're absolutely right.
Source Unknown
Decision is a sharp knife that cuts or to do anything, never to turn back or to stop until the thing intended was clean and straight; indecision, a dull one that hacks and tears and leaves ragged edges behind it.
Gordon Graham
