Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. George Santayana quotes Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. George Bernard Shaw quotes Take note, theologians, that in your desire to make matters of faith out of propositions relating to the fixity of sun and earth you run the risk of eventually having to condemn as heretics those who would declare the earth to stand still and the sun to change position - eventually, I say, at such a time as it might be proved that the earth moves and the sun stands still. Galileo Galilei quotes All things must change to something new, to something strange. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow quotes You've got to give great tools to small teams. Pick good people, use small teams, give them excellent tools...so that they are very productive in terms of what they are doing. Make it very clear what they can do to change the spec. Make them feel like they are very much in control of it. Bill Gates quotes He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind. Leonardo da Vinci quotes This is a fantastic time to be entering the business world, because business is going to change more in the next 10 years than it has in the last 50. Bill Gates quotes The people who resist change will be confronted by the growing number of people who see that better ways...are available thanks to technology. Bill Gates quotes A revolution, in politics, is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment. The substitution of the rule of an administration for that of a ministry, whereby the welfare and happiness of the people were advanced a full half-inch. Ambrose Bierce quotes Morality cannot be legislated but behavior can be regulated. Judicial decrees may not change the heart, but they can restrain the heartless. Martin Luther King, Jr. quotes |
