Quotes on Enthusiasm

Quotes on enthusiasm help us understand our deepest nature. Enthusiasm is not something outside of ourselves – which we need to cultivate or gain. It refers to the essential quality that is ever present within us and the action which arises out of that quality.

There is eloquence in true enthusiasm.

Edgar Allan Poe

Enthusiasm...the sustaining power of all great action.

Anatole France

There is nothing greater than enthusiasm.

Henry Moore

I consider my ability to arouse enthusiasm among men the greatest asset I possess. The way to develop the best that is in a man is by appreciation and encouragement.

Charles M. Schwab

It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause. Who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, at least falls while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Theodore Roosevelt

A man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm.

Charles M. Schwab

Enthusiasm is the most beautiful word on earth.

Christian Morgenstern

Creativity is a natural extension of our enthusiasm

Earl Nightingale

Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.

Henry Ford
