Only
I can change my life. No one can do it for
me.
Carol Burnett (1936 - )
We all have big changes
in our lives that are more or less a second
chance.
Harrison Ford (1942 - ), quoted by Garry
Jenkins in 'Harrison Ford: Imperfect Hero'
Things do not change; we
change.
Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862), Walden
(1970)
Nothing endures but change.
Heraclitus (540 BC - 480 BC), from Diogenes
Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers
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, M.D.
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.
The universe is change;
our life is what our thoughts make it.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121 AD - 180
AD), Meditations
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, O Magazine, Growing Wings,
January 2004
The more things change,
the more they remain... insane.
Michael Fry and T. Lewis, Over the Hedge,

There is nothing like returning
to a place that remains unchanged to find
the ways in which you yourself have altered.
Nelson Mandela (1918 - ), 'A Long Walk to
Freedom'
Change your thoughts
and you change your world.
Norman Vincent Peale (1898 - 1993)
