Reform Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Reform

1.
Reform is not pleasant, but grievous; no person can reform themselves without suffering and hard work, how much less a nation.
Carlyle, Thomas

2.
To reform a world, to reform a nation, no wise man will undertake; and all but foolish men know, that the only solid, though a far slower reformation, is what each begins and perfects on himself.
Carlyle, Thomas

3.
The most dangerous moment for a bad government is when it begins to reform.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

4.
People who love soft methods and hate iniquity forget this, -- that reform consists in taking a bone from a dog. Philosophy will not do it.
Chapman, John Jay

5.
No one is to blame. It is neither their fault nor ours. It is the misfortune of being born when a whole world is dying.
Herzen, Alexander

6.
People who have reformed themselves has contributed their full share towards the reformation of their neighbor.
Douglas, Norman

7.
If it was not absolutely necessary, it was the foolishest thing ever done.
Melbourne, Lord

8.
You have to make more noise than anybody else, you have to make yourself more obtrusive than anybody else, you have to fill all the papers more than anybody else, in fact you have to be there all the time and see that they do not snow you under, if you are really going to get your reform realized.
Pankhurst, Emmeline

9.
I think I am better than the people who are trying to reform me.
Howe, Edgar Watson

10.
A reformer is a guy who rides through the sewer in a glass bottom boat.
Walker, Mayor Jimmy

11.
The amelioration of the world cannot be achieved by sacrifices in moments of crisis; it depends on the efforts made and constantly repeated during the humdrum, uninspiring periods, which separate one crisis from another, and of which normal lives mainly consist.
Huxley, Aldous

12.
Every abuse ought to be reformed, unless the reform is more dangerous than the abuse itself.
Voltaire

13.
Let my name stand among those who are willing to bear ridicule and reproach for the truth's sake, and so earn some right to rejoice when the victory is won.
Alcott, Louisa May

14.
Experience has two things to teach. The first is that we must correct a great deal and the second, that we must not correct too much.
Delacroix, Eugene

15.
In England we have come to rely upon a comfortable time-lag of fifty years or a century intervening between the perception that something ought to be done and a serious attempt to do it.
Wells, H.G.

16.
Men must be capable of imagining and executing and insisting on social change if they are to reform or even maintain civilization, and capable too of furnishing the rebellion which is sometimes necessary if society is not to perish of immobility.
West, Rebecca

17.
Cautious, careful people always casting about to preserve their reputation or social standards never can bring about reform. Those who are really in earnest are willing to be anything or nothing in the world's estimation, and publicly and privately, in season and out, avow their sympathies with despised ideas and their advocates, and bear the consequences.
Anthony, Susan B.

18.
You cannot fight against the future. Time is on our side.
Gladstone, William E.

19.
If there are people who feel that God wants them to change the structures of society, that is something between them and their God. We must serve him in whatever way we are called. I am called to help the individual; to love each poor person. Not to deal with institutions. I am in no position to judge.
Mother Teresa

20.
A reformer is one who sets forth cheerfully toward sure defeat.
Child, Lydia M.

21.
Until politics are a branch of science we shall do well to regard political and social reforms as experiments rather than short-cuts to the millennium.
Haldane, John B. S.

22.
Of all follies there is none greater than wanting to make the world a better place.
Moliere
