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

Aristotle

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

Aristotle

Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.

Chinese Proverb

Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.

Peter Ustinov

There is nothing so habit-forming as money.

Don Marquis

When you're walking at the airport, you're expected to smile at people because they know you... I find that tough. I'm only trying to protect myself. So I don't take my eyes off the floor. People can take that as attitude. But it's actually shyness. Yes, it is a bad habit. But it's a defense mechanism.

Katrina Kaif

Failure is only postponed success as long as courage 'coaches' ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.

Herbert Kaufman

The truth won't set us free - until we develop the skills and the habit and the talent and the moral courage to use it.

Margaret Heffernan

Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Habit is ten times nature.

Duke of Wellington

Habit is a second nature that destroys the first. But what is nature? Why is habit not natural? I am very much afraid that nature itself is only a first habit, just as habit is a second nature.

Blaise Pascal

The moral virtues, then, are produced in us neither by nature nor against nature. Nature, indeed, prepares in us the ground for their reception, but their complete formation is the product of habit.

Aristotle
