Change

Famous quotes containing the word change:

    Most revolutionaries are potential Tories, because they imagine that everything can be put right by altering the shape of society; once that change is effected, as it sometimes is, they see no need for any other.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    Men are but children of a larger growth,
    Our appetites as apt to change as theirs,
    And full as craving too, and full as vain.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    For as change is horror,
    Virtue is really stubbornness
    And only in the light of lost words
    Can we imagine our rewards.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
