Feeling in the young precedes philosophy, and often acts with a more certain aim.

William Carleton

There's nothing terribly wrong with feeling lost, so long as that feeling precedes some plan on your part to actually do something about it. Too often a person grows complacent with their disillusionment, perpetually wearing their "discomfort" like a favorite shirt.

Jhonen Vasquez

You'll never meet a happy ungrateful person, or an unhappy grateful person because gratitude and happiness go together. Sometimes happiness precedes gratitude but often gratitude precedes happiness. The latter is achieved by realising things could be worse but aren't and so feeling relieved, grateful and happy.

Zig Ziglar

William James

Action seems to follow feeling, but really action and feeling go together; and by regulating the action, which is under the more direct control of the will, we can indirectly regulate the feeling, which is not.

William James

Thought precedes action, action does not always precede thought.

Douglas Horton

Thought precedes action as lighting does thunder.

Heinrich Heine

Where the head goes, the body follows. Perception precedes action. Right action follows the right perspective.

Ryan Holiday

Bragging often precedes begging.

B. C. Forbes

I don't think of compassion as sympathy but rather as empathy. An understanding of how people are feeling, which often translates into action.

Hazel Hawke

Taking it easy is often the prelude to backsliding. Comfort precedes collapse.

Vance Havner

the heaviest anguish often precedes a return tide of joy and courage.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

That sort of reputation which precedes performance [is] often the larger part of a man's fame.

We are deeply conditioned against unconditionality because we've been told in a thousand different ways that accomplishment always precedes acceptance, that achievement always precedes approval.
