Martin Amis on change

The arms race is a race between nuclear weapons and ourselves.

Every writer hopes or boldly assumes that his life is in some sense exemplary, that the particular will turn out to be universal.

Being inoffensive, and being offended, are now the twin addictions of the culture.

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
