Best Quotes about Change
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
Everything changes, nothing remains without change.
Buddha
Wisdom lies neither in fixity nor in change, but in the dialectic between the two.
Paz, Octavio
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
There is a certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse! As I have often found in traveling in a stagecoach, that ;it is often a comfort to shift one's position, and be bruised in a new place.
Irving, Washington
Illness strikes men when they are exposed to change.
Herodotus
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
Sometimes the answer to prayer is not that it changes life, but that it changes you.
Freeman, James Dillet
A rut is a grave with no ends.
Lampkin, Alan
That's the risk you take if you change: that people you've been involved with won't like the new you. But other people who do will come along.
Alther, Lisa
We cannot become what we need to be, remaining what we are.
Depree, Max
Change is inevitable. Change for the better is a full-time job.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
Change begets change. Nothing propagates so fast. If a man habituated to a narrow circle of cares and pleasures, out of which he seldom travels, step beyond it, though for never so brief a space, his departure from the monotonous scene on which he has been an actor of importance would seem to be the signal for instant confusion. The mine which Time has slowly dug beneath familiar objects is sprung in an instant; and what was rock before, becomes but sand and dust.
Dickens, Charles
Seek not to change the world, but choose to change your mind about the world.
A Course In Miracles
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter into another!
Sheehy, Gail
I've always believed that it's important to show a new look periodically. Predictability can lead to failure.
Pickens, T. Boone
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
The entrepreneur always searches for change, responds to it, and exploits it as an opportunity.
Drucker, Peter F.
To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.
Churchill, Winston
Change is not reform, any more than noise is music.
Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely.
Clark, Karen Kaiser
It's only the view from where you sit that makes you feel defeat. Life is full of many aisles, so why don't you change your seat?
Some folks won't look up until they are flat on their backs
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
Change, like sunshine, can be a friend or a foe, a blessing or a curse, a dawn or a dusk.
Ward, William A.
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
Only the wisest and the stupidest of men never change.
Confucius
People do no change with the times, they change the times.
Shaw, P.K.
There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.
Nelson Mandela
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
Never change a winning game; always change a losing one.
Tilden, Bill
When things come to the worse, they generally mend.
Moodie, Susanna
Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. When people ask me what really changed my life eight years ago, I tell them that absolutely the most important thin was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming.
Robbins, Anthony
A living thing is distinguished from a dead thing by the multiplicity of the changes at any moment taking place in it.
Spencer, Herbert
Life has got a habit of not standing hitched. You got to ride it like you find it. You got to change with it. If a day goes by that don't change some of your old notions for new ones, that is just about like trying to milk a dead cow.
Guthrie, Woody
Music can't change the world.
Geldof, Bob
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
There is nothing permanent except change.
Heraclitus
Everything flows and nothing abides, everything gives way and nothing stays fixed.
Heraclitus
We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.
Burke, Edmund
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
Today is not yesterday: we ourselves change; how can our works and thoughts, if they are always to be the fittest, continue always the same? Change, indeed is painful; yet ever needful; and if memory have its force and worth, so also has hope.
Carlyle, Thomas
A stop sign is a gift for you to learn that moving in the same direction won't take you any place new.
Sikes, Rex Steven
Christians are supposed not merely to endure change, nor even to profit by it, but to cause it.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson
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
Of the events of life we may have some control. but over the law of its progress none.
Draper, John W.
The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.
Drucker, Peter F.
Things don't change, but by and by our wishes change.
Proust, Marcel
The thing that lies at the foundation of positive change, the way I se it, is service to a fellow human being.
Walesa, Lech
There are two kinds of fools: One says, This is old therefore it is good. The other one says, This is new therefore it is better.
Inge, Dean William R.
