Socrates
Greek - Philosopher
469 BC - 399 BC

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.

Will Durant

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Aristotle

You are what you do repeatedly every day. If excellence is something you're striving for, then it's not an accident. It's a habit.

Greg Plitt

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. Aristotle How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.

Florence Nightingale

Excellence is a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.

Shaquille O'Neal

We are what we repeatedly do... excellence, therefore, isn't just an act, but a habit and life isn't just a series of events, but an ongoing process of self-definition.

Aristotle

For all my friends in the media who like quotes, mark this quote down. From this day on I'd like to be known as 'The Big Aristotle' because Aristotle once said, 'Excellence is not a singular act; it's a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.'

Shaquille O'Neal

If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude.

Colin Powell
