A Quote by Henry David Thoreau

It is tranquil people who accomplish much. — © Henry David Thoreau
It is tranquil people who accomplish much.
Organization doesn't really accomplish anything. Plans don't accomplish anything, either. Theories of management don't much matter. Endeavors succeed or fail because of the people involved. Only by attracting the best people will you accomplish great deeds.
You accomplish exactly as much as the people who serve you decide you'll accomplish and nothing more.
Trust Christ! and a great benediction of tranquil repose comes down upon the calm mind and the tranquil heart.
Whatever begins to be tranquil is gobbled up by something not tranquil.
The reason most people don’t accomplish much is because they don’t want much.
I want to accomplish my work and fulfill my dreams, and do something with my life, and I hope I'll be able to accomplish it. It's very much work, but I like it.
We cannot accomplish as much as we think we can in one day and we can accomplish more than we think we can in a year. Isn't that true?
Understand that workaholics aren't productive people. Quite the contrary. A workaholic is someone who takes twice as much time to accomplish half as much as a Lazy Achiever.
Accomplish but do not boast, accomplish without show, accomplish without arrogance, accomplish without grabbing, accomplish without forcing.
The mind is intrinsically tranquil. Out of this tranquility, anxiety and confusion are born. If one sees and knows this confusion, then the mind is tranquil once more.
I'm not afraid to tell people what I hope to accomplish and what I believe I'm capable of. I'm ready to take the backlash if I don't accomplish my dreams.
I have found that being honest is the best technique I can use. Right up front, tell people what you're trying to accomplish and what you're willing to sacrifice to accomplish it.
If your aims as a donor are modest, you can accomplish an awful lot. When your aims become elevated beyond a reasonable level, you not only don't accomplish much, but you can cause a great deal of damage.
If there were no cherry blossoms in this world How much more tranquil our hearts would be in spring.
People often say I have so much energy, that I never stop; but that's what it takes to accomplish your goals.
Focus on what it is that you want, set a realistic goal. Start setting goals that you feel you can accomplish. Don't try to go right to the top in one leap. Every time you accomplish a goal you develop the strength and wisdom to accomplish the next one.
