Best Quotes about Change
A living thing is distinguished from a dead thing by the multiplicity of the changes at any moment taking place in it.
Spencer, Herbert
To change and change for the better are two different things
Proverb, German
Change is inevitable. Change for the better is a full-time job.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
Illness strikes men when they are exposed to change.
Herodotus
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
We did not change as we grew older; we just became more clearly ourselves.
Lynn Hall
The true past departs not, no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die; but all is still here, and, recognized or not, lives and works through endless change.
Carlyle, Thomas
When it becomes more difficult to suffer than change -- then you will change.
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
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
It seemed that each time we would become proficient at a given task there would be a change made for no apparent reason. It sometimes appeared that changes were made simply because sufficient time had elapsed since the last change. And then our efforts would begin again from the beginning.
Adalphos, General
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
If things change then they will be different, but if they don't then things will stay the same.
Gilcrest, Peter
Weep not that the world changes -- did it keep a stable, changeless state, it were cause indeed to weep.
Bryant, William C.
Change starts when someone sees the next step.
Drayton, William
Change is not only likely, it's inevitable.
Sher, Barbara
I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.
Dean, Jimmy
We need to change so we can remain the same.
Serrity, Dorothy
No one can persuade another to change. Each of us guards a gate of change that can only be opened from the inside. We cannot open the gate of another, either by argument or emotional appeal.
Ferguson, Marilyn
Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely.
Clark, Karen Kaiser
As the blessings of health and fortune have a beginning, so they must also find an end. Everything rises but to fall, and increases but to decay.
Sallust
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
Nobody told me how hard and lonely change is.
Gilbertson, Joan
The main dangers in this life are the people who want to change everything or nothing.
Astor, Lady Nancy
When things come to the worse, they generally mend.
Moodie, Susanna
Some folks won't look up until they are flat on their backs
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.
Life is measured by the rapidity of change, the succession of influences that modify the being.
Eliot, George
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
Change is inevitable-except from a vending machine.
Gallagher, Robert C.
Slumber not in the tents of your fathers. The world is advancing.
Mazzini, Giuseppe
Remember, no human condition is ever permanent. Then you will not be overjoyed in good fortune nor too scornful in misfortune.
Socrates
We are restless because of incessant change, but we would be frightened if change were stopped.
Bryson, Lyman L.
It is change; all yields its place and goes.
Euripides
Change is inevitable. Change is constant.
Disraeli, Benjamin
The search for static security -- in the law and elsewhere -- is misguided. The fact is security can only be achieved through constant change, adapting old ideas that have outlived their usefulness to current facts.
Douglas, William O.
The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus
The longer you stay in one place, the greater your chances of disillusionment.
Spander, Art
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
People do no change with the times, they change the times.
Shaw, P.K.
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
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
In true dialogue, both sides are willing to change.
ThÝch Nhat Hanh
You do not notice changes in what is always before you.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle
Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.
King Whitney Jr.
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.
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
They are the weakest-minded and the hardest-hearted men that most love change.
Ruskin, John
If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree.
Rohn, Jim
One change always leaves the way open for the establishment of others.
Machiavelli, Niccolo
