Changing The World Quotes (page 2)

That taught me one lesson which is that you're naive to believe that bands can change the world. Bands are very naive to think that just if their audience thinks that they can change the world, that they can. That was quite a lesson for my career, really. Billy Bragg
Do you want to change the world? Then change yourself first. Do you want to change yourself? Then remain completely silent inside the silence-sea. Sri Chinmoy
Drizzt Do'Urden had followed a line of precepts based upon discipline and ultimate optimism. He fought for a better world because he believed that a better world could and would be made. He had never held any illusions that he would change the world, of course, or even a substantial portion of it, but he always held strongly that fighting to better just his own little pocket of the world was a worthwhile cause. R. A. Salvatore
You weren't going to the theater to change the world, but you had a chance to affect the world, the thinking and the feelings of the world. James Earl Jones
By doing something positive in this world, you're helping people and the future. We're all trying to help the world... make it a better place to live. We're actually still changing the world, aren't we? Rick Danko
I think we can be the very best place to start a business, to grow a business, to invent a new technology, to change the world, to change the country. But we've got a lot of work to deliver a new California to the people of California. Meg Whitman
Viktor E. Frankl quote: "Man is capable of changing the world for the better if..."
Man is capable of changing the world for the better if possible, and of changing himself for the better if necessary. Viktor E. Frankl
I've lived most of my adult life outside the law, and never have I compromised with authority. But neither have I gone out and picked fights with authority. That's stupid. They’re waiting for that; they invite it; it helps keep them powerful. Authority is to be ridiculed, outwitted and avoided. And it is fairly easy to do all three. If you believe in peace, act peacefully; if you believe in love, act lovingly; if you believe every which way, then act every which way, that’s perfectly... Tom Robbins
Gilbert K. Chesterton quote: "Progress should mean that we are always changing the world to..."
Progress should mean that we are always changing the world to fit the vision, instead we are always changing the vision. Gilbert K. Chesterton
What we would like to do is change the world...by crying out unceasingly for the rights of the workers, of the poor, of the destitute. We can throw our pebble in the pond and be confident that its ever widening circle will reach around the world. Dorothy Day
That becomes the revolution, to be idealistic enough that you think you can change the world, and what you find is you can't change anything but yourself. Marilyn Manson
What we can and should change is ourselves: our impatience, our egoism (including intellectual egoism), our sense of injury, our lack of love and forbearance. I regard every other attempt to change the world, even if it springs from the best intentions, as futile. Herman Hesse
. . . if there is a way for the world to be transformed for the better, it can only be done by pessimism; optimists will never change the world for the better. Jose Saramago
If you believe in peace, act peacefully; if you believe in love, acting lovingly; if you believe every which way, then act every which way, that's perfectly valid - but don't go out trying to sell your beliefs to the system. You end up contradicting what you profess to believe in, and you set a bum example. If you want to change the world, change yourself. Tom Robbins
Joseph Campbell quote: "If you want to change the world, you have to change the metaphor."
If you want to change the world, you have to change the metaphor. Joseph Campbell
