Best Quotes about Change
Though I might travel afar, I will meet only what I carry with me, for every man is a mirror. We see only ourselves reflected in those around us. Their attitudes and actions are only a reflection of our own. The whole world and its condition has its counter parts within us all. Turn the gaze inward. Correct yourself and your world will change.
Zambucka, Kirsten
One of the prevailing sources of misery and crime is in the generally accepted assumption, that because things have been wrong a long time, it is impossible they will ever be right.
Ruskin, John
They are the weakest-minded and the hardest-hearted men that most love change.
Ruskin, John
Use a gyroscope to demonstrate how, over time, we become fixed in our ways, personalities, and, as a mature person, psychologically resistant to change. With EFFORT, however, we can make changes. We are not today exactly what we were yesterday. We are almost imperceptibly different. We do change with time and we can control to an extent the direction of the changes.
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
In order to change, we must be sick and tired of being sick and tired.
A rolling stone can gather no moss.
Syrus, Publilius
Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.
Sontag, Susan
Seek not to change the world, but choose to change your mind about the world.
A Course In Miracles
Change is not made without inconvenience, even from worse to better.
Hooker, Richard
Sometimes the answer to prayer is not that it changes life, but that it changes you.
Freeman, James Dillet
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
Enjoying success requires the ability to adapt. Only by being open to change will you have a true opportunity to get the most from your talent.
Ryan, Nolan
In human life there is constant change of fortune; and it is unreasonable to expect an exemption from the common fate. Life itself decays, and all things are daily changing.
Plutarch
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
Life is measured by the rapidity of change, the succession of influences that modify the being.
Eliot, George
In true dialogue, both sides are willing to change.
ThÝch Nhat Hanh
It is change; all yields its place and goes.
Euripides
The only people who like change are wet babies.
You will never change your life until you change something you do daily.
Murdock, Mike
Being ready isn't enough; you have to be prepared for a promotion or any other significant change.
Riley, Pat
Change yourself and your work will seem different.
Peale, Norman Vincent
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
Both tears and sweat are salty, but they render a different result. Tears will get you sympathy; sweat will get you change.
Jackson, Jesse
Such is the state of life, that none are happy but by the anticipation of change: the change itself is nothing; when we have made it, the next wish is to change again. The world is not yet exhausted; let me see something tomorrow which I never saw before.
Johnson, Samuel
Man must be prepared for every event of life, for there is nothing that is durable.
Menander of Athens
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Niebuhr, Reinhold
Change is inevitable. Change is constant.
Disraeli, Benjamin
The need for change bulldozed road down the center of my mind.
Angelou, Maya
The way of the creative works through change and transformation, so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny and comes into permanent accord with the great harmony: this is what furthers and what perseveres.
I Ching
Of the events of life we may have some control. but over the law of its progress none.
Draper, John W.
Slumber not in the tents of your fathers. The world is advancing.
Mazzini, Giuseppe
All meaningful and lasting change starts first in your imagination and then works its way out. Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Einstein, Albert
One person's constant is another person's variable.
Gerhart, Susan
For good and evil, man is a free creative spirit. This produces the very queer world we live in, a world in continuous creation and therefore continuous change and insecurity.
Cary, Joyce
Any change or reform you make is going to have consequence you don't like.
Udall, Mo
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
Weep not that the world changes -- did it keep a stable, changeless state, it were cause indeed to weep.
Bryant, William C.
Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.
Carol Burnett
The fish only knows that it lives in the water, after it is already on the river bank. Without our awareness of another world out there, it would never occur to us to change.
One change always leaves the way open for the establishment of others.
Machiavelli, Niccolo
The things that have come into being change continually. The man with a good memory remembers nothing because he forgets nothing.
Bastos, Augusto Roa
Change is difficult but often essential to survival.
Brown, Les
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.
Most of us are about as eager to be changed as we were to be born, and go through our changes in a similar state of shock.
Baldwin, James
Wisdom lies neither in fixity nor in change, but in the dialectic between the two.
Paz, Octavio
Just because everything's different doesn't mean anything's changed.
Porter, Irene
Things do not change; we change.
Henry David Thoreau
Most of us will do anything to become good except change our way of living.
Perfection is immutable. But for things imperfect, change is the way to perfect them.
Felltham, Owen
