#15 was my favorite. It’s really difficult to change myself so what is the chance of me changing someone else who I have no control over anyway?
I anticipate CHANGE! It’s CHANGE that improves character. It’s CHANGE which let’s you see things and situations from a different prospective. It’s CHANGE that God uses to guide you. Besides, if it weren’t for CHANGE, I would be easily bored!
Great quotes. I have one that says “Change is here to stay”. Don’t know who said it but I like it because change is the only thing that isn’t transient.
Lovely, indeed change is the one thing we cannot ingnore if we sincerely aspire to be great. I’m excited about number (5) “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself”. -Leo Tolstoy
I, fully agree with no.13 that we normally look the close door which is not open for us we must have to see the another option for our better life.
# 6 Absolutely! But this can happen only if everyone understands
that education can be copied or bought from someone or somewhere but has to understand and put self efforts within
#13 rings so true — the longer you are in mourning for the loss you can’t see the new gain. “When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one that has opened for us.” -Alexander Graham Bell
Thanks Everyone…and thanks to those that shared some quotes. Keep ‘em coming!

Good thoughts. Change is always required.
Be a candle, Be a light, Be a twinkle in the dark, Be a hope, Be an inspiration & make a big difference to every one around.
Change Yourself, Otherwise Change Will Change you…………
Nice thoughts Shawn. Here is another one.
Change yourself and the World around you will change — Shriram Sharma
I like this one “You cant Change the wind, but you can adjust the sails”
Number 13 hit the nail on the head for me. I’ve certainly heard the first part, but never the second which makes it all the more powerful. Was surprised that it’s a quote from Alexander Graham Bell. No offense meant Mr. Bell.
Thanks

it is true, change yourself otherwise someone will change you.
think progess and change are same.
#3 is my favorite, they’re all good. Here’s one on change:
The observer changes the nature of the observed.
No.13 Quote is so very true. I am going through a change. And here i am fighting many bad reasons that have brought this change. but sure there has to be a window out there which i wouldnt have bothered to open otherwise. Let me just see.. let me just wait, coz i believe there has to be a bright reason for these circumstaces.
Change quote:
You want change? Don’t nickel and dime yourself, give the cashier the entire 20 bucks.
If nothing changes, nothing changes.
