Percy Bysshe Shelley on change

Revenge is the naked idol of the worship of a semi-barbarous age.

Gold is a living god and rules in scorn,
All earthly things but virtue.

Love’s very pain is sweet,
But its reward is in the world divine
Which, if not here, it builds beyond the grave.

Change is inevitable. Change is constant.

Benjamin Disraeli1804–1881

Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you’ll understand what little chance you have in trying to change others.

When you’re through changing, you’re through.

Bruce Fairchild Barton1886–1967
