You can't move so fast that you try to change the mores faster than people can accept it. That doesn't mean you do nothing but it means that you do the things that need to be done according to priority.

If you accept the expectations of others especially negative ones then you never will change the outcome.

Everything in life that we really accept undergoes a change.

The first step toward change is awareness. The second step is acceptance.

Without accepting the fact that everything changes we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately although it is true it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of transience we suffer.

We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate it oppresses.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.

Once I accepted Christ I immediately had peace. I still didn't have a place to live I still didn't have a car but I had peace.

I accept the Old Testament as more of an action movie: blood car chases evacuations a lot of special effects seas dividing mass murder adultery. The children of God are running amok wayward. Maybe that's why they're so relatable.

Accept business only at a price permitting thoroughness. Then do a thorough job regardless of cost to us.

The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.

I've analyzed the best I can... and I have not found an impeachable offense and therefore resignation is not an acceptable course.

You must accept that you might fail then if you do your best and still don't win at least you can be satisfied that you've tried. If you don't accept failure as a possibility you don't set high goals you don't branch out you don't try - you don't take the risk.

It's a funny thing about life if you refuse to accept anything but the best you very often get it.

You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give.

Beauty is grace and confidence. I've learned to accept and appreciate what nature gave me.

Beauty ought to look a little surprised: it is the emotion that best suits her face. The beauty who does not look surprised who accepts her position as her due - she reminds us too much of a prima donna.

Attitude is your acceptance of the natural laws or your rejection of the natural laws.

In 1977 at least he wished to have people believe that he shared and was proud of an attitude toward women that is not acceptable in a politician. In 2003 all he has said is that he doesn't remember the interview.

The compulsion to do good is an innate American trait. Only North Americans seem to believe that they always should may and actually can choose somebody with whom to share their blessings. Ultimately this attitude leads to bombing people into the acceptance of gifts.

Having a clear faith based on the creed of the church is often labeled today as fundamentalism. Whereas relativism which is letting oneself be tossed and swept along by every wind of teaching look like the only attitude acceptable to today's standards.

The contemporary thing in art and literature is the thing which doesn't make enough difference to the people of that generation so that they can accept it or reject it.

To play safe I prefer to accept only one type of power: the power of art over trash the triumph of magic over the brute.
