One's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes ... and the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.
- Eleanor Roosevelt
The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice. - George Eliot (1819 - 1880)
The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action. - John Dewey (1859 - 1952)
It's choice - not chance - that determines your destiny. - Jean Nidetch
That which you call your soul or spirit is your consciousness, and that which you call 'free will' is your mind's freedom to think or not, the only will you have, your only freedom, the choice that controls all the choices you make and determines your life and your character.
- Ayn Rand (1905 - 1982), Atlas Shrugged
The birthplace of success for each person is in his Inner-Consciousness. The Inner-Consciousness will use whatever it is given. If constructive thoughts are planted positive outcomes will be the result. Plant the seeds of failure and failure will follow. And since the only real freedom a person has is the choice of what thoughts he will feed to his Inner-Consciousness he is totally responsible for the outcomes he gets.
- Sidney Madwed
As human beings, we are endowed with freedom of choice, and we cannot shuffle off our responsibility upon the shoulders of God or nature. We must shoulder it ourselves. It is up to us.
- A. J. Toynbee
To decide, to be at the level of choice, is to take responsibility for your life and to be in control of your life.
- Abbie M. Dale
