Inspirational New Year Quotes
The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year.
It is that we should have a new soul.
G. K. Chesterton
Be always at war with your vices,
at peace with your neighbors,
and let each new year find you a better man.
Benjamin Franklin
Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on,
with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.
Hal Borland
Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right.
Oprah Winfrey
For last year's words belong to last year's language
And next year's words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
T.S. Eliot
We will open the book. Its pages are blank.
We are going to put words on them ourselves.
The book is called Opportunity
and its first chapter is New Year's Day.
Edith Lovejoy Pierce
Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given;
While angels sing with tender mirth,
A glad new year to all the earth.
Martin Luther
A happy New Year! Grant that I
May bring no tear to any eye
When this New Year in time shall end
Let it be said I've played the friend,
Have lived and loved and labored here,
And made of it a happy year.
Edgar Guest
We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room,
drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched.
Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...
not looking for flaws, but for potential.
Ellen Goodman
The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year.
It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose;
new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes.
Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions,
he would make no resolutions.
Unless a man starts afresh about things,
he will certainly do nothing effective.
