Many of us are naturally resistant to change: change in routine, or change in the way we work, or change in our ideas and what we believe. Yet as we learn more about the world and ourselves, we are challenged to change:
"The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn – and change"
Carl Rogers (1902–1987, psychologist)

We continue with quotations on the theme of 'Change'. We are aware that society needs changing - Barack Obama's campaign slogan was 'Change we can believe in'. Sometimes, though, we are not able to change a situation:
"When we are no longer able to change a situation,
we are challenged to change ourselves."
Victor Frankl (1905-1997, Austrian psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor).
