Best Quotes about Change
Change yourself, change your fortunes.
Proverb, Portuguese
Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life.
Otto, Herbert A.
Changes start occurring when budgets are cut.
To become different from what we are, we must have some awareness of what we are.
Hoffer, Eric
Many deceive themselves, imagining they'll find happiness in change.
Kempis, Thomas
Don't fear change -- embrace it.
D'Angelo, Anthony J.
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
A rut is a grave with no ends.
Lampkin, Alan
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?
It is not well to make great changes in old age.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon
Goals allow you to control the direction of change in your favor.
Tracy, Brian
If things change then they will be different, but if they don't then things will stay the same.
Gilcrest, Peter
They must change who would be constant in happiness and wisdom.
Confucius
Any transition serious enough to alter your definition of self will require not just small adjustments in your way of living and thinking but a full-on metamorphosis.
Martha Beck
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
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
Thus all things are doomed to change for the worse and retrograde.
Virgil
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
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
Force never moves in a straight line, but always in a curve vast as the universe, and therefore eventually returns whence it issued forth, but upon a higher arc, for the universe has progressed since it started.
Kabbalah
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
Watts, Alan W.
Change yourself and your work will seem different.
Peale, Norman Vincent
Peak performers see the ability to manage change as a necessity in fulfilling their missions.
Garfield, Charles A.
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
We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.
Burke, Edmund
The most serious charge that can be brought against New England is not Puritanism but February.
Krutch, Joseph Wood
Most of us will do anything to become good except change our way of living.
One person's constant is another person's variable.
Gerhart, Susan
We emphasize that we believe in change because we were born of it, we have lived by it, we prospered and grew great by it. So the ;status quo has never been our god, and we ask no one else to bow down before it.
Rowan, Carl
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
They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol
Change means movement. Movement means friction. Only in the frictionless vacuum of a nonexistent abstract world can movement or change occur without that abrasive friction of conflict.
Alinsky, Saul
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
Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.
Sontag, Susan
In order to change, we must be sick and tired of being sick and tired.
The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.
Drucker, Peter F.
Change happens in the boiler room of our emotions... so find out how to light their fires.
Dewar, Jeff
For changes to be of any true value, they've got to be lasting and consistent.
Robbins, Anthony
Strong character is brought out by change, weak ones by permanence.
Paul, Jean
Things do not change, we do.
Thoreau, Henry David
Change is inevitable. Change is constant.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Things don't change, but by and by our wishes change.
Proust, Marcel
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
Never swap horses crossing a stream.
Proverb, American
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
Everybody wants to do something to help, but nobody wants to be the first.
Bailey, Pearl
Weep not that the world changes -- did it keep a stable, changeless state, it were cause indeed to weep.
Bryant, William C.
To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must cultivate our personal life; and to cultivate our personal life, we must first set our hearts right.
Confucius
All meaningful and lasting change starts first in your imagination and then works its way out. Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Einstein, Albert
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
