Change
Everybody wants to do something to help, but nobody wants to be the first.

Best Quotes about Change
Of the events of life we may have some control. but over the law of its progress none.
Draper, John W.
Change is inevitable. Change for the better is a full-time job.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.
Dickens, Charles
You must welcome change as the rule but not as your ruler.
Waitley, Denis
Life is made of millions of moments, but we live only one of these moments at a time. As we begin to change this moment, we begin to change our lives.
Hunt, Trinidad
If a man like Malcolm X could change and repudiate racism, if I myself and other former Muslims can change, if young whites can change, then there is hope for America.
Cleaver, Eldridge
A living thing is distinguished from a dead thing by the multiplicity of the changes at any moment taking place in it.
Spencer, Herbert
Change is not only likely, it's inevitable.
Sher, Barbara
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
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Gandhi, Mahatma
By nature man hates change; seldom will he quit his old home till it has actually fallen around his ears.
Carlyle, Thomas
The word change, so dear to our Europe, has been given a new meaning: it no longer means a new stage of coherent development (as it was understood by Vico, Hegel or Marx), but a shift from one side to another, from front to back, from the back to the left, from the left to the front (as understood by designers dreaming up the fashion for the next season).
Kundera, Milan
Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.
Sontag, Susan
Wisdom lies neither in fixity nor in change, but in the dialectic between the two.
Paz, Octavio
Illness strikes men when they are exposed to change.
Herodotus
We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance.
Harrison Ford
Just because everything's different doesn't mean anything's changed.
Porter, Irene
If we want everything to remain as it is, it will be necessary for everything to change.
Lampedusa, Giuseppe Tomasi Di
Christians are supposed not merely to endure change, nor even to profit by it, but to cause it.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson
To act and act wisely when the time for action comes, to wait and wait patiently when it is time for repose, put man in accord with the rising and falling tides (of affairs), so that with nature and law at his back, and truth and beneficence as his beacon light, he may accomplish wonders. Ignorance of this law results in periods of unreasoning enthusiasm on the one hand, and depression on the other. Man thus becomes the victim of the tides when he should be their Master.
Blavatsky, Helena Petrova
The first step toward change is awareness. The second step is acceptance.
Branden, Nathaniel
Turbulence is life force. It is opportunity. Let's love turbulence and use it for change.
Ramsay Clark
So long as a person is capable of self-renewal they are a living being.
Amiel, Henri Frederic
If things change then they will be different, but if they don't then things will stay the same.
Gilcrest, Peter
There is no new thing under the sun. [Ecclesiastes 1:9]
Bible
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
Watts, Alan W.
The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.
Drucker, Peter F.
One change always leaves the way open for the establishment of others.
Machiavelli, Niccolo
That things are changed, and that nothing really perishes, and that the sum of matter remains exactly the same, is sufficiently certain.
Bacon, Francis
Believe, if thou wilt, that mountains change their place, but believe not that man changes his nature.
Mohammed
Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.
Carol Burnett
Things don't change, but by and by our wishes change.
Proust, Marcel
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them -- that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
Lao-Tzu
In true dialogue, both sides are willing to change.
ThÝch Nhat Hanh
Remember, no human condition is ever permanent. Then you will not be overjoyed in good fortune nor too scornful in misfortune.
Socrates
All things change, nothing is extinguished. There is nothing in the whole world which is permanent. Everything flows onward; all things are brought into being with a changing nature; the ages themselves glide by in constant movement.
Ovid
It's not that some people have willpower and some don't. It's that some people are ready to change and others are not.
James Gordon
We are shifting from a managerial society to an entrepreneurial society.
Naisbitt, John
When you're finished changing, you're finished.
Franklin, Benjamin
Everything is changing. People are taking the comedians seriously and the politicians as a joke.
Rogers, Will
If you want change, you have to make it. If we want progress we have to drive it.
Susan Rice
To make a change often takes a lot of initial energy and effort. This is not unlike a rocket that expends most of its energy in the first few miles even though its destination may be hundreds of thousands of miles away.
Change is not made without inconvenience, even from worse to better.
Hooker, Richard
In order to change, we must be sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you'll understand what little chance you have in trying to change others.
Braude, Jacob M.
I've continued to recognize the power individuals have to change virtually anything and everything in their lives in an instant. I've learned that the resources we need to turn our dreams into reality are within us, merely waiting for the day when we decide to wake up and claim our birthright.
Robbins, Anthony
Things do not change; we change.
Henry David Thoreau
We live in an era when rapid change breeds fear, and fear too often congeals us into a rigidity which we mistake for stability.
White, Lynn
There is nothing permanent except change.
Heraclitus
The more things change, the more they remain... insane.
Michael Fry and T. Lewis
