Famous quotes containing the word change:
“... often in the heat of noonday, leaning on a hoe, looking across valleys at the mountains, so blue, so close, my only conscious thought was, How can I ever get away from here?

There came a time when I knew I must make them happen; that no one would do anything about it for me. And I did.”
