Quotes about change in Life

Before we get to our quotes about change in life, let’s ask a question: what is change? Surely change is life itself. When we think about the future (which is where most of us place our focus) we think about change relative to the present. When we think about relationships, we think about how our relationships could be better, which is essentially change. . . change is everything. So quite literally, change is life itself. At least, that’s my 2 cents on change, but here are some quotes about change in life from people far wiser than me.
