| Quote:The customs and fashions of men change like leaves on the bough, some of which go and others come.[Dante Alighieri] Quote:Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:Education doesn't change life much. It just lifts trouble to a higher plane of regard.[Robert Frost] Quote:Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favor.[Robert Frost] Quote:If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.[George Bernard Shaw] Quote:For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged, by better information or fuller consideration, to change opinions, even on important subjects, which I once thought right but found to be otherwise.[Benjamin Franklin] Quote:I wanted to change the world.

I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: turn back.[Erica Jong] Quote:Only the extremely ignorant or the extremely intelligent can resist change.[Socrates] Quote:Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you'll understand what little chance you have in trying to change others.[Jacob Braude] Quote:You are young, my son, and, as the years go by, time will change and even reverse many of your present opinions.

[Havelock Ellis] Quote:One person can have a profound effect on another. And two people...well, two people can work miracles. They can change a whole town. They can change the world. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:Engineering is not merely knowing and being knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia; engineering is not merely analysis; engineering is not merely the possession of the capacity to get elegant solutions to non-existent engineering problems; engineering is practicing the art of the organized forcing of technological change... Engineers operate at the interface between science and society... [Herbert Hoover] Quote:Nothing endures but change. [Heraclitus] Quote:Women have more to offer this world than just a fallopian tube. Nothing is going to change until you quit looking at us as just sperm receptacles. [Barbara Hall] Quote:If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts.
