- Change theme
- Wars of nations are fought to change maps. But wars of poverty are fought to map change.
- Muhammad Ali on Change
- Washington is still very much a male-oriented culture. Being from Los Angeles, I think it is less so there - there is less attachment to tradition, perhaps, there is more flexibility, more acceptance of change generally. That is partly because of Hollywood.
- Dee Dee Myers on Change
- We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance.
- Harrison Ford on Change
- We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten. Don't let yourself be lulled into inaction.
- Bill Gates on Change
- We are all born with a unique genetic blueprint, which lays out the basic characteristics of our personality as well as our physical health and appearance... And yet, we all know that life experiences do change us.
- Joan D. Vinge on Change
- We are all revolutionaries now, addicts of change.
- Christopher Lasch on Change
- We are like a woman with a difficult pregnancy. We have to rebuild the social classes in Egypt, and we must change the way things were.
- Naguib Mahfouz on Change
- We are not victims of aging, sickness and death. These are part of scenery, not the seer, who is immune to any form of change. This seer is the spirit, the expression of eternal being.
- Deepak Chopra on Change
- We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame yourself. It's never your fault. But it's always your fault, because if you wanted to change you're the one who has got to change.
- Katharine Hepburn on Change
- We are volcanoes. When we women offer our experience as our truth, as human truth, all the maps change. There are new mountains.
- Ursula K. Le Guin on Change

- John Wooden on Change
- We can't change anything until we get some fresh ideas, until we begin to see things differently.
- James Hillman on Change
- We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.
- We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
- Charles R. Swindoll on Change
- We don't change what we are, we change what we think what we are.
- Eric Butterworth on Change
- 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.
- Carl T. Rowan on Change
- We first fought... in the name of religion, then Communism, and now in the name of drugs and terrorism. Our excuses for global domination always change.
- Serj Tankian on Change
- We have a powerful potential in out youth, and we must have the courage to change old ideas and practices so that we may direct their power toward good ends.
- Mary McLeod Bethune on Change
- We have domesticated God's transcendence. We often learn about God at about the same time as we are learning about Santa Claus but our ideas about Santa Claus change, mature and become more nuanced, whereas our ideas of God can remain at a rather infantile level.
- Karen Armstrong on Change
- We have got to change our ethics and our financial system and our whole way of understanding the world. It has to be a world in which people live rather than die a sustainable world. It could be great.
- Vivienne Westwood on Change
- We have no reason to think that climate change is harmful if you look at the world as a whole. Most places, in fact, are better off being warmer than being colder. And historically, the really bad times for the environment and for people have been the cold periods rather than the warm periods.
- Freeman Dyson on Change
- We have the character of an island nation: independent, forthright, passionate in defence of our sovereignty. We can no more change this British sensibility than we can drain the English Channel. And because of this sensibility, we come to the European Union with a frame of mind that is more practical than emotional.
- David Cameron on Change
- We have to do more than just elect a new President if we truly want to change this country.
- Dan Quayle on Change

- Lawrence Ferlinghetti on Change
- We have to struggle against the conservatives from all sides, not only the right-wingers, but also the left-wing conservatives who don't want to change anything.
- Jacques Delors on Change
- We like to think about how smart we are. But I think talent as a writer is hard-wired in, it's all there, at least the basic elements of it. You can't change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed.
- Stephen King on Change
- We live in a moment of history where change is so speeded up that we begin to see the present only when it is already disappearing.
- R. D. Laing on Change
- We may need to change the way we think. As in Israel, I think there should be a mandatory draft, where you go away for the service of your country for three years.
- Steven Tyler on Change
- We may think there is willpower involved, but more likely... change is due to want power. Wanting the new addiction more than the old one. Wanting the new me in preference to the person I am now.
- George A. Sheehan on Change
- We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.
- Edmund Burke on Change

- Peter Drucker on Change
- We say keep your change, we'll keep our God, our guns, our constitution.
- Sarah Palin on Change
- We should be proud that our Prophet came into the world with the message of Islam to change it for the better, and not for the worse, or to keep things as they are.
- Abu Bakar Bashir on Change
- We should learn to accept that change is truly the only thing that's going on always, and learn to ride with it and enjoy it.
- Alice Walker on Change
- We teach people that they upset themselves. We can't change the past, so we change how people are thinking, feeling and behaving today.
- Albert Ellis on Change
- We think that democracy can change a lot of things, but we're being fooled, because democracy is not the election. We've been taught that democracy is having elections. And it isn't. Elections are the most horrendous aspect of democracy. It's the most mundane, trivial, disappointing, dirty aspect.
- Gael Garcia Bernal on Change
- We used to think that revolutions are the cause of change. Actually it is the other way around: change prepares the ground for revolution.
- Eric Hoffer on Change
- We're a nation of laws, but the good thing about America, is that laws reside in the people and people can change the laws.
- Rick Warren on Change
- We're all entitled to opinions about how art institutions should behave, and entitled to voicing those opinions through whatever means available to us. We're also allowed to change or modify our opinions.
- Jerry Saltz on Change
- We're living in an era of unprecedented change, and I want to be a part of documenting it.
- Ron Fournier on Change
- We're not trying to change the world just music.
- Jonathan Davis on Change
- We, the people. Manifest Destiny. Conceived in liberty. Fear itself. Ask not. Morning in America. United we stand. Yes, we can. In times of great change and tumult, presidents seek to inspire beleaguered Americans by reminding them of their national identity.
- Ron Fournier on Change
- Weep not that the world changes - did it keep a stable, changeless state, it were cause indeed to weep.
- William C. Bryant on Change
- Well I do think, when there are more women, that the tone of the conversation changes, and also the goals of the conversation change. But it doesn't mean that the whole world would be a lot better if it were totally run by women. If you think that, you've forgotten high school.
- Madeleine Albright on Change
- Well, what was called the blessed hope of the Bible is that one day Jesus Christ would come back again, start a whole new era, that this world order that we know it would change into something that would be wonderful that we'd call the millennium.
- Pat Robertson on Change
- Well... I had braces and I had to wear headgear! I loved my braces, actually. For me, they were like a piece of jewelry! Instead of the silver or pewter I had gold braces. It was so much fun, I loved them. I got to change the colors and stuff and I had the rubber bands.
- Jordin Sparks on Change
- What creates freedom? A revolution in the streets? Mass protest? Civil war? A change of government? The ousting of the old guard and its replacement by the new? History, more often than not, shows that hopes raised by such events are often dashed, sooner rather than later.
- Jonathan Sacks on Change
- What I learned in jail is that I can't change. I can't live a different lifestyle-this is it. This is the life that they gave and this is the life that I made.
- Tupac Shakur on Change
