Best Quotes about Change
It is the greatest mistake to think that man is always one and the same. A man is never the same for long. He is continually changing. He seldom remains the same even for half an hour.
Gurdjieff, George
It seemed that each time we would become proficient at a given task there would be a change made for no apparent reason. It sometimes appeared that changes were made simply because sufficient time had elapsed since the last change. And then our efforts would begin again from the beginning.
Adalphos, General
For changes to be of any true value, they've got to be lasting and consistent.
Robbins, Anthony
Nothing that I can do will change the structure of the universe. But maybe, by raising my voice I can help the greatest of all causes -- goodwill among men and peace on earth.
Einstein, Albert
Any change, even for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts.
Bennett, Arnold
Change happens in the boiler room of our emotions... so find out how to light their fires.
Dewar, Jeff
They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
Watts, Alan W.
America is the civilization of people engaged in transforming themselves. In the past, the stars of the performance were the pioneer and the immigrant. Today, it is youth and the Black.
Rosenberg, Harold
There is such a thing as a general revolution which changes the taste of men as it changes the fortunes of the world.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
The things that have come into being change continually. The man with a good memory remembers nothing because he forgets nothing.
Bastos, Augusto Roa
Any change or reform you make is going to have consequence you don't like.
Udall, Mo
Change is the end result of all true learning. Change involves three things: First, a dissatisfaction with self -- a felt void or need; second, a decision to change to fill the void or need; and third, a conscious dedication to the process of growth and change -- the willful act of making the change, doing something.
Buscaglia, Leo
It is a psychological fact that you can influence your environment and thoughts. If you do so consciously and with high purpose, you can change your habits and attitudes for the better.
Only man is not content to leave things as they are but must always be changing them, and when he has done so, is seldom satisfied with the result.
Huxley, Elspeth
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
Gandhi, Mahatma
Only the wisest and the stupidest of men never change.
Confucius
It struck me while I was sitting here; everything changes but the sea.
Davis, William B.
Every moment of one's existence one is growing into more or retreating into less. One is always living a little more or dying a little bit.
Mailer, Norman
We cannot become what we need to be, remaining what we are.
Depree, Max
I do not believe you can do today's job with yesterday's methods and be in business tomorrow.
Jackson, Nelson
The first step toward change is awareness. The second step is acceptance.
Branden, Nathaniel
Human beings, by change, renew, rejuvenate ourselves; otherwise we harden.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
The need for change bulldozed road down the center of my mind.
Angelou, Maya
A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years, but a photograph always remains the same. How nice to look at a photograph of mother or father taken many years ago. You see them as you remember them. But as people live on, they change completely. That is why I think a photograph can be kind.
Einstein, Albert
The great person is ahead of their time, the smart make something out of it, and the blockhead, sets themselves against it.
Baudrillard, Jean
Many deceive themselves, imagining they'll find happiness in change.
Kempis, Thomas
Today the world changes so quickly that in growing up we take leave not just of youth but of the world we were young in. Fear and resentment of what is new is really a lament for the memories of our childhood.
Medawar, Sir Peter
There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.
Nelson Mandela
This is your time and it feels normal to you, but really, there is no normal. There's only change and resistance to it and then more change.
Meryl Streep
We don't change what we are, we change what we think what we are.
Butterworth, Eric
Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.
Sontag, Susan
To become different from what we are, we must have some awareness of what we are.
Hoffer, Eric
Weep not that the world changes -- did it keep a stable, changeless state, it were cause indeed to weep.
Bryant, William C.
By nature man hates change; seldom will he quit his old home till it has actually fallen around his ears.
Carlyle, Thomas
The changes in our life must come from the impossibility to live otherwise than according to the demands of our conscience not from our mental resolution to try a new form of life.
Tolstoy, Count Leo
A rolling stone can gather no moss.
Syrus, Publilius
If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.
Buffett, Warren
Life may change, but it may fly not; Hope may vanish, but can die not; Truth be veiled, but still it burneth; Love repulsed, -- but it returneth.
Shelley, Percy Bysshe
Let us resolve to be masters, not the victims, of our history, controlling our own destiny without giving way to blind suspicions and emotions.
Kennedy, John F.
The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.
Drucker, Peter F.
The true past departs not, no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die; but all is still here, and, recognized or not, lives and works through endless change.
Carlyle, Thomas
I realized the problem was me and nobody could change me except myself.
Petworth, John
It is a dangerous thing to reform anyone.
Wilde, Oscar
There has never been a time when you and I have not existed, nor will there be a time when we will cease to exist. As the same person inhabits the body through childhood, youth, and old age, so too at the time of death he attains another body. The wise are not deluded by these changes.
Bhagavad Gita
Winners must learn to relish change with the same enthusiasm and energy that we have resisted it in the past.
Peters, Thomas J.
Who we are never changes. Who we think we are does.
Almanac, Mary S.
Grow we must, if we outgrow all that loves us.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Change is certain. Peace is followed by disturbances; departure of evil men by their return. Such recurrences should not constitute occasions for sadness but realities for awareness, so that one may be happy in the interim.
I Ching
Christians are supposed not merely to endure change, nor even to profit by it, but to cause it.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson
