The modern woman has a modern life, and most of us work. There’s no time to change before we go out in the evening, so a dress should always look appropriate for day and night. – L’Wren Scott
I hear music that comes out of need, out of grief, sorrow, suffering and out of overcoming these things, as well. That journey to freedom still goes on today. It’s an incremental change, the culmination of many events in your own life and the lives of your children and grandchildren. – Kathleen Battle
The art of storytelling is in development, not fact sheets. There are posts you have to hammer into the ground from the start just to get going, but if they don’t hold up the house you build, you can change them or take them out. – Karen Traviss
But September 11 marked a big change in the sense that the public was suddenly interested, and as a professor at a public university I felt a responsibility to respond to all of the inquiries about the Islamic world. – Juan Cole
As an actor, you always want to keep it different, change it up, and, you know, just to keep yourself inspired and work with interesting characters. – Kelly Reilly
Here’s what we must do: Completely reform the vetting process for immigrants and foreign visitors. Change the screening process. Come up with a new visa-application review process. Stop this nonsense of marriage-visa fraud. And in the meantime, seal the borders. – Lawrence Kudlow
As a woman of a certain age – and really, ever since I hit puberty and my baby-making parts were suddenly subject to public debate – I’ve been told over and over again that I will ‘change my mind’ about not wanting kids. – Jen Kirkman
If net neutrality goes away, it will fundamentally change everything about the Internet. – James Hilton
One volcano puts out more toxic gases – one volcano – than man makes in a whole year. And when you look at this ‘climate change,’ and when you look at the regular climate change that we all have in the world, we have warm and we have cooling spells. – John Raese
I always tell people that my life is in pencil; I have to keep an eraser in my hand because I could always get a call that could change everything. – Linda Gray
I think how veterans are treated in our country is an abomination. We don’t have the draft any more, which is why so many soldiers come from working-class – rather than middle- or high-income families. Those wealthier families aren’t affected, so they’re not agitating for change. – Laurie Halse Anderson
Chris Farley, I was a huge fan of his growing up. I would love to do something kind of slapstick and funny, maybe where I could change my look even a little bit. – Jaimie Alexander
Social paralysis is strong and stands firmly in the way of change on the ground level. As allies, we have to prepare ourselves to step into the fire when necessary, even – and especially – when said fire is merely a still-lit cigarette tossed carelessly onto the street. – Jack Antonoff
Don’t underestimate the power of your vision to change the world. Whether that world is your office, your community, an industry or a global movement, you need to have a core belief that what you contribute can fundamentally change the paradigm or way of thinking about problems. – Leroy Hood
Christianity has stayed stable, as it must do. The doctrines don’t change. The understanding of what it means to walk with God doesn’t change. The reality of worship doesn’t change, not at heart, anyway. So Christianity appears to be stuck. – J. I. Packer

Design should be easy in the sense that every step should be obviously and clearly identifiable. Simplify elements to make change simple so you can manage the technical risk. – Kent Beck
I would tell 17-year-olds to be proud of who you are. Don’t try to change yourself for others. Focus on school and your future. Boys and friends will come and go, just focus on you and your future. – Lea Michele
I was never supposed to be a businessman. I was going to change the world. I was going to go back to Latin America and work on agrarian reform and equalize the differences between rich and poor. – Jorge M. Perez
We want the facts to fit the preconceptions. When they don’t it is easier to ignore the facts than to change the preconceptions. – Jessamyn West
Traveling to the Middle East and playing music for people on the street, for soldiers, for people in hospitals, and for people who lost their homes, and seeing people open up through the experience of music really restored my faith in music, in art, and in culture to change things. – Michael Franti
Thirdly, Death is nothing else but a change of a short and temporary for an unalterable and eternal condition. – John Pearson
Breathing air is a liberating experience. It freed our ancestors from the constraints of staying wet or having to remain within easy reach of water for refuge, respiration or reproduction. But the biggest change it made in our lives was to expose us to a whole new range of sensory experience. – Lyall Watson
To change your phrase somewhat, I know that I like an art where disparate elements form an entity. – James Schuyler
Changing anything in the past, if you believe it’s possible, could alter the entire future of the world, including my own birth, so I’d change nothing. Not a thing. As for the future… I think I’d like to see how it all ends, which is probably why I write about the future apocalypse so frequently. – Jeremy Robinson
