If one tries to think about history, it seems to me – it’s like looking at a range of mountains. And the first time you see them, they look one way.

22

56

I never made beats to make beats; I only made them when there was a record to make them for. That’s one of the things that has changed in hip-hop that’s made me like it less. It feels much more like it’s a producer-driven medium, where there are all these tracks that are completely interchangeable.
83

172
I would have changed my last name if being famous were my goal.
173
174

I’m a huge music fan. I usually say that if I had been born with a musical inclination, it would’ve been great. The Beatles changed everything for me, and I wanted to be a journalist for ‘Rolling Stone.’ I’m a big music fan in a Cameron Crowe way, kind of in a spectator way.
176

186
187
I’ll tell you sort of an odd story: My music taste changed on 9/11. And it’s very strange. I actually intellectually find this very curious. But on 9/11, I didn’t like how rock music responded. And country music collectively, the way they responded, it resonated with me.
188

I saw ‘Taxi Driver,’ and ‘Taxi Driver’ kind of saved my life. The scene where Robert De Niro is looking at himself in the mirror saying, ‘You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Who the hell else are you talkin’ to?’ That’s the scene that changed my life by changing my attitude about acting.

236
I have been lucky, of course. Like, last year, if I went out, I’d have to fight to chat someone up. This year, I look exactly the same, which is really scruffy, and yet lots of people seem to have just changed their minds and decided I’m really sexy.

The recording industry has changed; they’re enjoying such incredible success in the pop field.
238
239
I eat tons, three full meals a day, and I never go to the gym.

246
247
248

There have been times I’ve planted stuff in songs where four years later I’ll be singing it from a subconscious, kind of chameleon little lizard mind… and at a certain moment, all of a sudden, I’ll hear a line from a different vantage point and it’ll change its meaning. It’s something I wrote but it changed because I did.
252
253

259
260

280
281
I’m a New Yorker. I was there during 9/11, and I saw how, not only New York City stopped for a moment, we all took an inhale and exhale at the same time – the world united at that time, and it changed my life. I think millions of people were forever changed.
282
‘Moonlight‘ has changed my life externally but also internally… spiritually as well.
283

287
People’s minds are changed through observation and not through argument.
288

Success hasn’t changed me at all. I’m still the same cocky, arrogant guy I’ve always been. The only difference now is that I’m busy all the time.
309
310
311
With the Internet and blockchain, everything is changed. It’s the future of content.

The way I outline has changed quite a bit from when I first started writing.
315
316
Venezuela has changed forever.
317
318
My father is Italian, and I never met my paternal grandparents. The family name was ‘Caroselli’ and it was changed in the mid ’50s. I think they wanted to assimilate, which was pretty common, although I love the name ‘Caroselli.’
319
320
The intolerance of people against other people is growing and growing. And the thing is, this is not anything that’s changed. This has been going on for years.

322
Sometimes I hear people saying, ‘Nothing has changed.’ Come and walk in my shoes.
323
My cancer scare changed my life. I’m grateful for every new, healthy day I have. It has helped me prioritize my life.
324
For the next week, try the best you can to pay attention to sounds. You will start hearing all these sounds coming in. Once you let them in, you’ve already done the first and most critical thing, you’ve honored that information by including it. And by doing that, you’ve actually changed the world.
325
Playing Etta James in the movie ‘Cadillac Records’ really changed me. It was a darker character, and I realized that if anything is too comfortable, I want to run from it. It’s no fun being safe.
326
327
We are living in a computer-programmed reality, and the only clue we have to it is when some variable is changed, and some alteration in reality occurs. We have the overwhelming impression that we were reliving the present – deja vu.
328
329
You could say, in a vulgar Freudian way, that I am the unhappy child who escapes into books. Even as a child, I was most happy being alone. This has not changed.
330
I respect Apple. It’s a great company that changed the world, especially the mobile time.
331
I’m a very introverted person. Nothing that’s happened has changed that, but one of the reasons I write for teens is it’s a real privilege to have a seat at the table in the lives of young people when they’re figuring out what matters to them.
332
333
Assassination has never changed the history of the world.
334
335
Officials at the White House are saying that President Bush hasn’t changed his schedule much since the war started. The main difference, they say, is that he’s started watching the news and taping Sponge Bob.
336
Of course, the outcome of the war would not have been changed. The war was lost perhaps, when it was started. At least it was lost in the winter of ’42, in Russia.
337
338
I believe, 50 years from now, when you write history, one technology that would have changed human civilization is going to be the mobile Internet.
339
340
341

342
The problem is that there are very few technologies that essentially haven’t changed for 60, 70 years.
343

346
The Government has correctly recognised that this E.U. law cannot all be changed into domestic law at once.
347
I don’t think there was ever a dish that changed my life. I certainly remember a constant series of things that I had for the first time and thought, ‘Where has this been all my life?’ One was brie. I mean, oh my God! One was my first soft-shell crabs.
348
For a long time I didn’t want to date or get naked with ‘anyone – I was so fat. But I changed every part of my life to lose weight and have a better life.
349

350
The legacy that The Undertaker has had, I can’t even put into words. He changed the landscape.
351
Listening is being able to be changed by the other person.
352
I was given a chance some time ago, and it changed my life forever. I want to be able to give the same chance to the next generation of artists. There’s a new wave coming, and we are going to be a part of it.
353
I’m fascinated by how much has changed from one generation to another. There are young people growing up now for whom apartheid is just a distant memory and the idea of military service is an abstract notion.
354
355
Since Einstein developed his theory of relativity, and Rutherford and Bohr revolutionised physics, our picture of the world has radically changed.

357
358
359
Only stupid people are changed by success.
360
I loved everything about my wedding look, but, in retrospect, I would have changed the position of where we attached the veil on my head. Make sure you test a few different placements and styles before the big day to make a clear vision and plan with your hairstylist.
361
The day my son was born my life changed completely.
362
Miffy has changed quite a lot since the early books, although I never realised it at the time.
363
364
365
There certainly is a good ‘Tex Mex’ restaurant very close to our office. My office is around 100 yards from it. I call it Tex Mex because every couple of years it’s changed hands and changed name, I’m not exactly sure why!
366
The Jews’ greatest contribution to history is dissatisfaction! We’re a nation born to be discontented. Whatever exists we believe can be changed for the better.
367
All historical experience demonstrates the following: Our earth cannot be changed unless in the not too distant future an alteration in the consciousness of individuals is achieved.
368
The Bundesliga is the league that made me, and it changed my life.
369

370
We live in a changing world, but we need to be reminded that the important things have not changed, and the important things will not change if we keep our priorities in proper order.
371
I haven’t made a political statement in quite a long time because, frankly, they get repeated, changed.

373

374
375
376
377
When you are chiselling a sculpture, it won’t happen in one day, it happens over a period of time. It’s the same way that my personality has changed over the past 15 years. I am not the same person I used to be and my life experiences are what have made me.
378
379
I think it is going to be very difficult to be a company in silos. I think the game has changed. We won’t define our success by looking at the competitors but at how satisfied are our customers, how engaged are our internal stakeholders, and how good is our product pipeline.
380
Can human hearts be changed? Why, of course! It happens every day in the great missionary work of the Church. It is one of the most widespread of Christ’s modern miracles. If it hasn’t happened to you – it should.
381
It’s sad to be constantly judged for every move you make after your first success. If you wear your hair differently, you have changed.
382
383
They say marriage will change you but it didn’t change me. Being in love changed me.
384
‘Dare to Discipline‘ was published in 1970 in the midst of the Vietnam War and a culture of rebellion. The book was written in that context, but the principles of child rearing have not changed.
385
386
387
My perspective on life in general has definitely changed. Having a child did that for sure.
388
389
I know Jim Cornette says the reason that I’m successful now is because I changed my attitude, and I must be listening to what people tell me now, and I used to not listen to him. But the thing is, I used to not listen to him or question his methods because I didn’t agree with him, and I didn’t share his vision.
390
Basically, radio hasn’t changed over the years. Despite all the technical improvements, it still boils down to a man or a woman and a microphone, playing music, sharing stories, talking about issues – communicating with an audience.
391
Music doesn’t lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.
392
The Meters are, I think, the most influential group in our time to come out of New Orleans, to have changed and introduced us all to a way of playing, and to a groove and a level of feel in playing funk-jazz.
393
394
Write a lot. And finish what you write. Don’t join writer’s clubs and go sit around having coffee reading pieces of your manuscript to people. Write it. Finish it. I set those rules up years ago, and nothing’s changed.
395
My appearance has changed a lot over the years, but it has far more to do with how I feel about being a woman.
396
I’ve raised Michael. I changed his diapers when he was little.
397
The moment that changed me for ever was the moment my first child was born. I was happy, filled with hope, and thought, ‘Now I understand the whole point of work, of life, of love.’
398
I looked at the photos at the VMAs and my hair was the most. That was a time when we were the most extreme – like, I totally looked like Cher. And it always took, like, two bottles of hairspray every morning. Yeah, we’ve definitely changed a lot. But I love that we have that history, and I enjoy looking back.
399
We used to live in a world where the price of resources came down steadily, and now the world has changed. You have a great mismatch between finite resources and exponential population growth.
400
I basically drew my own family. My father’s name is Homer. My mother’s name is Margaret. I have a sister Lisa and another sister Maggie, so I drew all of them. I was going to name the main character Matt, but I didn’t think it would go over well in a pitch meeting, so I changed the name to Bart.
401
As a result of the World War, this old Germany collapsed. It collapsed in its constitution, in its social order, in its economic structure. Its thinking and feeling changed.
402
The show changed my life in so many remarkable ways. Now in my 82nd year, I have been blessed with a wonderful 67-year career with ‘Hee Haw’ as the icing on the cake.
403
My wife is wonderful. She’s one of the people who has changed my life around… or has allowed ME to change my life around.
404
405
The thing that’s changed the most has just been the rapid technology.
406
407
What has changed is that nothing has changed… that’s what has made me more unhappy than everything else.
408
They would not find me changed from him they knew – only more sure of all I thought was true.
409
410
I grew up reading 19th-century novels and late Victorian children’s books, so I try for a good story full of coincidence and error, landscape and weather. However, the world was radically changed during my lifetime, and I tell of that battering as best I can.
411
412
I’ve been accustomed to being famous and having a certain level of attention for 14 years, but in the last few months, it’s changed. It’s like on the arcade game, I’ve gone up to the next level.
413
414
415
The spirit of Burzum never changed, but my ability to make music changed dramatically when I was imprisoned. It is more or less impossible to record music in prison, and the only music I could record was electronic music, when I was allowed to have a synthesizer for a few months in 1994 or 1995 and in 1998.
416
I always tell people I’m grateful for my cancer diagnosis because it was the greatest gift because it completely changed my life. I was able to stop and let my whole life and world just crash over me like a wave. And I stood there and went, ‘Wow.’ And for the first time, I stopped everything. I had to.
417
I stopped smoking. When I stopped smoking, my voice changed… so drastically, I couldn’t believe it myself.
418
My pregnancy changed my relationship with my body because I went from despising it to marvelling at what it can do.
419
I’m a New Yorker. I was there during 9/11 and I saw how, not only New York City stopped for a moment, we all took an inhale and exhale at the same time – the world united at that time, and it changed my life.
420
421
Therefore, a person should first be changed by a teacher’s instructions, and guided by principles of ritual. Only then can he observe the rules of courtesy and humility, obey the conventions and rules of society, and achieve order.
422
423
I don’t think the way I look at myself has changed.
424
Writing changed my life. It has an existential dimension, and that’s the same for every writer. Every artist has a moment of awakening, of happening upon an idea that grabs hold of you, regardless of whether you are a painter or a writer.
425
426
Acting changed my life. I say God and then acting. Because becoming an actor, I’ve gained a new respect for humanity. And I believe that it’s also helped me to grow as a person. It’s been one of the biggest blessings and expressions that I could have ever been gifted with.
427
In sport, there is always room for improvement. Whenever I see my innings against the West Indies or Australia, I think, ‘Maybe, I could have done this better or should have changed that.’ See, cricket is a skill game, and one can always improve upon the impact one has on an innings.
428
I’ve been embracing gray hair since… high school, and I don’t think that anything’s changed since then.
429
I think in the old days, the nexus of weirdness ran through Southern California, and to a degree New York City. I think it’s changed so that every bizarre story in the country now has a Florida connection. I don’t know why, except it must be some inversion of magnetic poles or something.
430
If I’m interrupted, it’s just a minor inconvenience, but not a disaster, because it’s easy to get back where I was: that is, the paint has not changed consistency; the light has not moved.
431
432
At Cornell University, my professor of European literature, Vladimir Nabokov, changed the way I read and the way I write. Words could paint pictures, I learned from him. Choosing the right word, and the right word order, he illustrated, could make an enormous difference in conveying an image or an idea.
433
All he cares about is going out there with his Jack Daniels bottle. Nothing has changed. That’s kind of sad. If David was doing better than he used to be, then that would be different. But it was a joke and he made it that way.
434
The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking and we thus drift toward unparalleled catastrophe.
435
I have changed quite a lot since I came to Milan and I think I have become a more all-round footballer.
436
437
I don’t think there’s been anything in the game of football in my lifetime that has changed college football more than redshirting.
438
Network technology has irrevocably changed campaigning and elections. It has the potential to transform governance and the workings of our democracy for the better.
439
I am not a Christian because God changed my life; I am a Christian because of my convictions about who Jesus Christ is.
440
441
It’s a very good time for horror. This business certainly has changed, but there’s still room for serious horror films. Look at 28 Days Later, that’s not a tongue-in-cheek picture.
442
443
Fame has not changed me as a person, but life on the whole has changed a lot. I belong to a middle class family and that hasn’t changed.
444
I’ve got no hamstring in the middle. I’m basically running on two hamstrings on my right leg and three on the other. That injury has probably changed my whole career. I’ve been compromised from the age of 19.
445
You will suddenly realize that the reason you never changed before was because you didn’t want to.
446
I couldn’t get published for three years. Then the times changed: glasnost, perestroika. So, for three years, I wasn’t allowed to publish ‘The Unwomanly Face of War,’ but then it changed.
447
Your lungs are changed forever from your first cigarette.
448
449
450
One does not contemplate it like a picture. The idea of contemplation disappears completely. Simply take note that it’s a bottle rack, or that it’s a bottle rack that has changed its destination… It’s not the visual question of the readymade that counts; it’s the fact that it exists, even.
451
452
453
I have a rescue dog named Walter, and Walter and I are such fans of the ‘Jersey Shore‘ that we changed his name to DJ Wally D.
454
455
The sheer density of advertising creates a psychic mass, an overlay that can sometimes be very tense or aggressive. As a citizen, you have to participate in that every day. You have to walk by until it’s changed.
456
At the same time all this was happening, there was a folk song revival movement goingon, so the commercial music industry was actually changed by the Civil Rights Movement.
457
You know, they just don’t make big movie stars the way they used to, maybe because the system has changed, the studio system, but it’s sad to see people like Jimmy Stewart go, all the giants of the past.
458
459
Basically that was the moment when I thought I’d like to do this forever. I never changed my mind.
460
461
I was getting frustrated with America. It’s interesting how as simple a thing as, like, letting your hair grow longer changed in the world in those days.
462
When I did the record, I was coming off a time when my contract had been sold and the music industry had changed a lot. I didn’t understand how to make records for big labels. I was waiting for a new kind of record label to emerge.
463
We are living in a world that has been changed by COVID, and our legislative priorities need to support our communities and our workers to address the needs of our new environment.
464
My sentiments for the American cause, from the Stamp Act downward, have never changed… I am still of opinion that it is the cause of liberty and of human nature.
465
Then, when the Depression came, all of this changed completely. Since that time, the entire public is of a very different sort and there was not so much support for contemporary music in a direct way.
466
One thing that hasn’t changed, though, is that we still have to hear the new ad 2 or 3 times before it begins to affect us, even when we’re already familiar with the advertiser in question and have a positive opinion of them.
467
I attended Florida State University on an academic and leadership scholarship, changed my major from biology to broadcasting, and transferred to the University of South Carolina for my last two years.
468
469
Every day, women and girls are finding incredible confidence and taking risks. When they change one mind, pretty soon, they have changed one tradition. That changed tradition has changed a village. That one village has changed a country. That new reality means new opportunities for themselves and their daughters.
470
471
I don’t believe that I personally have been changed by the money. The bad thing is people assume you’ve changed because now you have money.
472
Anything can be changed. Anything can be fixed. Things that are broken can be fixed. And you don’t have to be some billionaire or millionaire to do it. You just have to be a person with a vision and the passion to do it, and be willing to fight for it every day.
473
When you change media, perception is changed and then policy is changed.
474
Looking back… it’s hard to understand what all the fuss was about as things changed in just a few years. When you look at all the things that have happened in the world, it seems very small.
475
476
Hopefully I’ve gotten better as an actor as the years have gone on, but the type of work I want to do has never changed.
477
What I want to write about has changed somewhat, and the scope of the storytelling has changed accordingly.
478
479
The thing is, I want to play real characters and not all girls can be pretty. The thing is, you get these girls who say ‘I’m a character actor‘ then you see them in a role and nothing has really changed but the outfit.
480
Everything has changed in recent decades – the economy, technology, cultural attitudes, the demographics of the workforce, the role of women in society and the structure of the American family. It’s about time our laws caught up. We watch ‘Modern Family’ on television, but we’re still living by ‘Leave It To Beaver‘ rules.
481
482
483
484
For the most part, that message hasn’t changed a lot over the years – love is still love, and heartbreak is still heartbreak.
485
I worked for three years in a small IT firm in Chicago. I managed our client base, so I translated into human speak for our technicians. But our company was sold, and the atmosphere and the culture really changed, so I quit without having anything else lined up.
486
It is going to be changed to straight P. Diddy. You could call me P. or Diddy, or P. Diddy. I just want something fresh, man.
487
The problem… is emblematic of what hasn’t changed during the equal opportunity revolution of the last 20 years. Doors opened; opportunities evolved. Law, institutions, corporations moved forward. But many minds did not.
488
489
490
All Americans owe a debt of gratitude to Dr. King for his bravery and commitment to civil rights and nonviolence that changed this nation – and world – for the better.
491
Chubby Checker changed the dance floor.
492
On the question of comfort women, when my thought goes to these people, who have been victimized by human trafficking and gone through immeasurable pain and suffering beyond description, my heart aches. And on this point, my thought has not changed at all from previous prime ministers.
493
I think the tone of the show has certainly changed over the years, because it’s really, really hard to do something different when you have a show going on as long as this has.
494
When I cut my hair, the whole sound changed, my style changed.
495
When I was on that boat, I realized the only way I would feel creatively challenged was if I totally changed everything about my environment and put myself in a storm, in a sense.
