![No Resolutions Quotes By Denis Diderot No Resolutions Quotes By Denis Diderot](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-denis-diderot-915230.jpg)
You live as if you were destined to live forever, no thought of your frailty ever enters your head, of how much time has already gone by you take no heed. You squander time as if you drew from a full and abundant supply, so all the while that day which you bestow on some person or thing is perhaps your last. You have all the fears of mortals and all the desires of immortals ... What foolish forgetfulness of mortality to defer wise resolutions to the fiftieth or sixtieth year, and to intend to begin life at a point to which few have attained. — Denis Diderot
![No Resolutions Quotes By Maria Edgeworth No Resolutions Quotes By Maria Edgeworth](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-maria-edgeworth-1101739.jpg)
There is no moment like the present. The man who will not execute his resolutions when they are fresh upon him can have no hope from them afterwards: they will be dissipated, lost, and perish in the hurry and scurry of the world, or sunk in the slough of indolence. — Maria Edgeworth
![No Resolutions Quotes By Samuel Beckett No Resolutions Quotes By Samuel Beckett](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-samuel-beckett-1786672.jpg)
Yes, my resolutions were remarkable in this, that they were no sooner formed than something always happened to prevent their execution. That — Samuel Beckett
![No Resolutions Quotes By Gilbert King No Resolutions Quotes By Gilbert King](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-gilbert-king-1535643.jpg)
There are enough staid people in the world holding things as they are. We need no more of them. What we need is people caught by the truth that no one is free when anyone is bound. That is not an easy idea to have get a hold on you. It has to be applied person by person, not just in the pious generalities of the resolutions good people pass when they gather for a moment and separate without effective action. Marshall — Gilbert King
![No Resolutions Quotes By William Keepin No Resolutions Quotes By William Keepin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-william-keepin-1258471.jpg)
As the community stays with the uncomfortable tension of contradiction, individuals begin to perceive the truth of "the other" as their own experience, and the polarities of conflicting positions often dissolve into an unexpected emergence of a deeper underlying unity: a profound recognition that, ultimately, there is no "other". We are all one. — William Keepin
![No Resolutions Quotes By Igor Ivanov No Resolutions Quotes By Igor Ivanov](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-igor-ivanov-1779745.jpg)
We believe the use of force against Iraq, especially with reference to previous resolutions of the UN Security Council, has no grounds, including legal grounds. — Igor Ivanov
![No Resolutions Quotes By Helen Fielding No Resolutions Quotes By Helen Fielding](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-helen-fielding-2021484.jpg)
I will not sulk about having no boyfriend, but develop inner poise and authority and sense of self as woman of substance,complete without boyfriend, as best way to obtain boyfriend. — Helen Fielding
![No Resolutions Quotes By Anais Nin No Resolutions Quotes By Anais Nin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-anais-nin-1376302.jpg)
I made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me. — Anais Nin
![No Resolutions Quotes By Jeff Rice No Resolutions Quotes By Jeff Rice](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-jeff-rice-1546086.jpg)
That done, I sank into an uneasy sleep wherein I dreamed of an assembly line of pale, bloodless girls walking down an endless dark street and moaning softly for help. Somewhere, toward the edge of my inner vision, a shadowy figure pursued them with long, beckoning arms.
Goddamn booze!
Somewhere in the midst of this ghoulish girl parade Cairncross materialized and hung a garland of garlic around my neck, glaring at me with his good eye and intoning, 'Go and sin no more.'
Vincenzo appeared at Cairncross' side and together they laughed insanely, then vanished in a puff of sulphurous smoke.
I made several high-minded resolutions, muttered half-heard but sincere-sounding prayers to all the recently deposed saints, thrashed and rolled clean off the bed.
I might just as well have stayed up. — Jeff Rice
![No Resolutions Quotes By Oscar Wilde No Resolutions Quotes By Oscar Wilde](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-oscar-wilde-1480080.jpg)
Good resolutions are useless attempts to interfere with scientific laws. Their origin is pure vanity. Their result is absolutely nil. They give us, now and then, some of those luxurious sterile emotions that have a certain charm for the weak ... They are simply cheques that men draw on a bank where they have no account. — Oscar Wilde
![No Resolutions Quotes By Alexander Hamilton No Resolutions Quotes By Alexander Hamilton](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-alexander-hamilton-2247391.jpg)
It is essential to the idea of a law, that it be attended with a sanction; or, in other words, a penalty or punishment for disobedience. If there be no penalty annexed to disobedience, the resolutions or commands which pretend to be laws will, in fact, amount to nothing more than advice or recommendation. This penalty, whatever it may be, can only be inflicted in two ways: by the agency of the Courts and Ministers of Justice, or by military force; by the coercion of the magistracy, or by the coercion of arms. The first kind can evidently apply only to men: the last kind must, of necessity, be employed against bodies politic, or communities, or States. — Alexander Hamilton
![No Resolutions Quotes By Matthew Kelly No Resolutions Quotes By Matthew Kelly](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-matthew-kelly-1488588.jpg)
A great purposelessness has descended upon modern civilizations. People at large have lost any sense of the meaning and purpose of life; and without an understanding of our own purpose, there can be no true commitment. Whether that commitment is to marriage, family, study, work, God, relationships, or the simple resolutions of our lives, it will be almost impossible to fulfill without a clear and practical understanding of our purpose. Commitment and purpose go hand in hand. — Matthew Kelly
![No Resolutions Quotes By Pavithra K. Mehta No Resolutions Quotes By Pavithra K. Mehta](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-pavithra-k-mehta-1541592.jpg)
The poetry of the new year is problematically punctual. An impeccable guest who arrives on time when you are running frantically behind schedule. Catching you precisely at that awkward stage of housecleaning when the contents of closet and cupboard are strewn across the room and there is no sensible place left to sit down. No, you haven't had a chance to change the guest room towels, your clothes or your habits. It is at this stage that you begin to stammer out apologies and resolutions. The visitor fixes you with a gaze that breaks like dawn over your clutter and chagrin. 'What a beautiful life,' murmurs your guest, pressing an oddly shaped package into your hands. Gladness rises in the heart like a cloud of hummingbirds. Always the same, unpredictable, utterly original gift. You consider the paradox of that as you hold it between your palms. Like freshly kneaded dough: this brand new day. — Pavithra K. Mehta
![No Resolutions Quotes By Jeremy Taylor No Resolutions Quotes By Jeremy Taylor](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-jeremy-taylor-1543070.jpg)
In self-examination, take no account of yourself by your thoughts and resolutions in the days of religion and solemnity; examine how it is with you in the days of ordinary conversation and in the circumstances of secular employment. — Jeremy Taylor
![No Resolutions Quotes By David Nicholls No Resolutions Quotes By David Nicholls](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-david-nicholls-1616915.jpg)
She made a firm resolution, one of the resolutions she was making almost daily these days. No more sleepovers, no more writing poetry, no more wasting time. Time to tidy up your life. Time to start again. — David Nicholls
![No Resolutions Quotes By Alex Morrison No Resolutions Quotes By Alex Morrison](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-alex-morrison-1719533.jpg)
We can no longer stand for the Security Council passing resolutions and then in effect heaving alongside and taking a vacation. We cannot leave it to the secretary general to go cap in hand. — Alex Morrison
![No Resolutions Quotes By G.K. Chesterton No Resolutions Quotes By G.K. Chesterton](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-g-k-chesterton-1875855.jpg)
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. — G.K. Chesterton
![No Resolutions Quotes By Robert Schumann No Resolutions Quotes By Robert Schumann](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-robert-schumann-1890531.jpg)
My indifference to money and my spendthrift ways are disgraceful. You have no idea how reckless I am; how often I practically throw money out of the window. I am always making good resolutions, but the next minute I forget and give the waiter eightpence. — Robert Schumann
![No Resolutions Quotes By Barack Obama No Resolutions Quotes By Barack Obama](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-barack-obama-1909820.jpg)
Now let me be clear - I suffer no illusions about Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal man. A ruthless man. A man who butchers his own people to secure his own power. He has repeatedly defied UN resolutions, thwarted UN inspection teams, developed chemical and biological weapons, and coveted nuclear capacity. He's a bad guy. The world, and the Iraqi people, would be better off without him. — Barack Obama
![No Resolutions Quotes By Frances Hardinge No Resolutions Quotes By Frances Hardinge](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-frances-hardinge-1980556.jpg)
Lies like knives, lies like poultices. The tiger's stripe, the fawn's dusky dapple. And everywhere, everywhere, the lie that people told themselves. Dreams like cut flowers, with no nourishing root. Will-o'-the-wisp lights to make them feel less alone in the dark. Hollow resolutions and empty excuses. — Frances Hardinge
![No Resolutions Quotes By Dorothea Benton Frank No Resolutions Quotes By Dorothea Benton Frank](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-dorothea-benton-frank-2027350.jpg)
As we did every New Year's Eve we made ridiculous resolutions that no one would keep, and quietly we all wondered what the coming year would hold, each of us praying for our own private miracles. Good health. Better health. A marriage for this child, a good job for another. This hopefulness was something hardwired into our psyches, that a new year might mean some monumental something wonderful could happen to bring us happiness at a level we had never known. A new year was a chance to start over. Maybe even, just maybe, there would be peace on earth for one entire day. — Dorothea Benton Frank
![No Resolutions Quotes By Seneca The Younger No Resolutions Quotes By Seneca The Younger](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-seneca-the-younger-2036814.jpg)
No one can lead a happy life, or even one that is bearable, without the pursuit of wisdom, and that the perfection of wisdom is what makes the happy life, although even the beginnings of wisdom make life bearable. Yet this conviction, clear as it is, needs to be strengthened and given deeper roots through daily reflection; making noble resolutions is not a important as keeping the resolutions you have made already. — Seneca The Younger
![No Resolutions Quotes By Leonard Cohen No Resolutions Quotes By Leonard Cohen](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-leonard-cohen-2158680.jpg)
Each day he lugged
a hunk of something precious
over to his boredom
and once or twice a week
when he was granted
the tiny grace of distance
he perceived that he laboured
as his fathers did
on someone else's pyramid
Thoughts of rebellion
Thoughts of injustice
New Year's resolutions
The seduction of a woman
All these he engraved
numbly letter by letter
Walther PPK-S
Serial No. 115142
stolen from one slave by another — Leonard Cohen
![No Resolutions Quotes By Oswald Chambers No Resolutions Quotes By Oswald Chambers](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-oswald-chambers-2245522.jpg)
All our promises and resolutions end in denial because we have no power to accomplish them. — Oswald Chambers
![No Resolutions Quotes By Laurie Elizabeth Flynn No Resolutions Quotes By Laurie Elizabeth Flynn](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-laurie-elizabeth-flynn-114555.jpg)
The doorbell rings and I sink into a heap on the carpet. With any luck, whoever is down there will just go away.
But I'm just starting to think nothing goes away, no matter how deep you try to bury it. — Laurie Elizabeth Flynn
![No Resolutions Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich No Resolutions Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-richelle-e-goodrich-705244.jpg)
Don't quit.
When your latest efforts fail, don't quit. When your performance is scoffed and ridiculed, don't quit. When you're told you have no talent, don't quit. When you come in dead last, don't quit. When it seems an uphill fight to keep going, don't quit. When you can't see any possible way to achieve your goals, don't quit. When your last supporter is you alone, don't quit. When discouragement and depression seem your constant companion, don't quit. When you feel like quitting, don't quit.
Time and time again you will crave relief from the harsh fight of trying to succeed. You will falsely think that quitting will bring peace and reprieve, but alas, only regret and disappointment await the quitter. Victory means never ever ever quitting.
So don't quit.
Do not quit. — Richelle E. Goodrich
![No Resolutions Quotes By Richard Armitage No Resolutions Quotes By Richard Armitage](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-richard-armitage-121521.jpg)
There is no sign, not one sign, that the Iraqi regime has any intent to comply fully with the terms of Resolution 1441, just as it has failed to comply with previous U.N. Security Council resolutions. The international community gave Iraq one final opportunity to disarm peacefully, and that opportunity has run its course. Dr. Blix [Chief U.N. Weapons Inspector] told us on Monday that there has been no progress toward credible, verifiable disarmament. — Richard Armitage
![No Resolutions Quotes By Lord Chesterfield No Resolutions Quotes By Lord Chesterfield](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-lord-chesterfield-166155.jpg)
No woman ever yet either reasoned or acted long together consequentially; but some little thing, some love, some resentment, somepresent momentary interest, some supposed slight, or some humour, always breaks in upon, and oversets their most prudent resolutions and schemes. — Lord Chesterfield
![No Resolutions Quotes By James Baldwin No Resolutions Quotes By James Baldwin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-james-baldwin-246780.jpg)
Time is always now. Everybody who has ever thought about his own life knows this. You don't make resolutions about something you are going to do next year. No! You decide to write a book: the book may be finished twenty years from now, but you've got to start it now. — James Baldwin
![No Resolutions Quotes By Israel Horovitz No Resolutions Quotes By Israel Horovitz](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-israel-horovitz-325095.jpg)
Art has no answers, only solutions, and resolutions... Art has only vision and revision... Art has only hope and more hope... again and again, against circumstance and history... What we hope life might be, again and again, against what we see it has been. In hope, there is a reason to continue. — Israel Horovitz
![No Resolutions Quotes By Thomas D'Arcy McGee No Resolutions Quotes By Thomas D'Arcy McGee](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-thomas-darcy-mcgee-341164.jpg)
Everything we did was done in form and with propriety, and the result of our proceedings is the document [the Quebec Resolutions] that has been submitted to the imperial government as well as to this house and which we speak of here as a treaty. And that there may be no doubt about our position in regard to that document we say, question it you may, reject it you may, or accept it you may, but alter it you may not. (Hear, hear. — Thomas D'Arcy McGee
![No Resolutions Quotes By Francis De Sales No Resolutions Quotes By Francis De Sales](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-francis-de-sales-565300.jpg)
Those who keep careful watch over their conscience are not often liable to form rash judgments, for just as when the clouds lower the bees make for the shelter of their hive, so really good people shrink back into themselves, and refuse to be mixed up with the clouds and fogs of their neighbour's questionable doings, and rather than meddle with others, they consecrate their energies on their own improvement and good resolutions. No surer sign of an unprofitable life than when people give way to censoriousness and inquisitiveness into the lives of other men. — Francis De Sales
![No Resolutions Quotes By Mark Twain No Resolutions Quotes By Mark Twain](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-mark-twain-625521.jpg)
New Year's is a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, and friendly calls and humbug resolutions. — Mark Twain
![No Resolutions Quotes By H.W. Lewis No Resolutions Quotes By H.W. Lewis](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-h-w-lewis-641775.jpg)
Decisions that lead to no action, like a decision to start a new diet tomorrow, are no decisions at all. That's why is so easy to make New Year's resolutions. — H.W. Lewis
![No Resolutions Quotes By Dave Barry No Resolutions Quotes By Dave Barry](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-dave-barry-703415.jpg)
Many people have trouble sticking to their resolutions, and there is a simple scientific explanation for this. In 1987, a team of psychologists conducted a study in which they monitored the New Year's resolutions of 275 people. After one week the psychologists found that 92 percent of the people were keeping their resolutions; after two weeks we have no idea what happened because the psychologists had quit monitoring. — Dave Barry
![No Resolutions Quotes By Farshad Asl No Resolutions Quotes By Farshad Asl](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-farshad-asl-1397793.jpg)
Most come up with New Year Resolutions...
Others are busy making Excuses...
A few are following through with Execution...
Design your New Year Intentionally. — Farshad Asl
![No Resolutions Quotes By Sebastian Faulks No Resolutions Quotes By Sebastian Faulks](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-sebastian-faulks-771344.jpg)
As she made coffee in the kitchen and tried to spoon the frozen ice-cream from its carton without snapping the shaft off the spoon, Elizabeth was struck, not for the first time, by the thought that her life was entirely frivolous.
It was a rush and slither of trivial crises; of uncertain cash-flow, small triumphs, occasional sex and too many cigarettes; of missed deadlines that turned out not to matter; of arguments, new clothes, bursts of altruism and sincere resolutions to address the important things. Of all these and the other experiences that made up her life, the most significant aspect was the one suggested by the words 'turned out not to matter'. Although she was happy enough with what she had become, it was this continued sense of the easy, the inessential nature of what she did, that most irritated her. She thought of Tom Brennan, who had known only life or death, then death in life. In her generation there was no intensity. — Sebastian Faulks
![No Resolutions Quotes By Ernest Agyemang Yeboah No Resolutions Quotes By Ernest Agyemang Yeboah](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-ernest-agyemang-yeboah-771822.jpg)
Each year comes with its own memories! Memories that make us ponder! Memories that shake our nerves and thought to think about things we did, things we could have done, things we should have done, the right time and timing for the yes and no we could have say with courage or humility, the right time and timing of our steps and things we should have never done! When you remember the year, you remember something! Something good or something bad! — Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
![No Resolutions Quotes By Seneca The Younger No Resolutions Quotes By Seneca The Younger](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-seneca-the-younger-943906.jpg)
True joy is a serene and sober motion; and they are miserably out so that take laughing for rejoicing; the seat of it is within, and there is no cheerfulness like the resolutions of a brave mind. — Seneca The Younger
![No Resolutions Quotes By Grover Cleveland No Resolutions Quotes By Grover Cleveland](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-grover-cleveland-967051.jpg)
Neither the discontent of party friends, nor the allurements constantly offered of confirmations of appointees conditions upon the avowal that suspensions have been made on party grounds alone, nor the threat proposed in the resolutions now before the Senate that no confirmations will be made unless the demands of that body are complied with, are sufficient to discourage or deter me from following in the way which I am convinced leads to better government for the people. — Grover Cleveland
![No Resolutions Quotes By William James No Resolutions Quotes By William James](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-william-james-978781.jpg)
Every time a resolve or a fine glow of feeling evaporates without bearing practical fruit is worse than a chance lost; it works to hinder future resolutions and emotions from taking the normal path of discharge. There is no more contemptible type of human character than that of the nerveless sentimentalist and dreamer, who spends his life in a weltering sea of sensibility and emotion, but who never does a manly concrete deed. — William James
![No Resolutions Quotes By Jane Austen No Resolutions Quotes By Jane Austen](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-jane-austen-1068892.jpg)
[Henry] felt himself bound as much in honour as in affection to Miss Morland, and believing that heart to be his own which he had been directed to gain, no unworthy retraction of a tacit consent, no reversing feared of unjustifiable anger, could shake his fidelity, or influence the resolutions it prompted. — Jane Austen
![No Resolutions Quotes By F Scott Fitzgerald No Resolutions Quotes By F Scott Fitzgerald](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-f-scott-fitzgerald-1088907.jpg)
In the morning you were never violently sorry
you made no resolutions, but if you had overdone it and your heart was slightly out of order, you went on the wagon for a few days without saying anything about it, and waited until an accumulation of nervous boredom projected you into another party. — F Scott Fitzgerald
![No Resolutions Quotes By Tracey Emin No Resolutions Quotes By Tracey Emin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-tracey-emin-1104388.jpg)
My New Year's Eve is always 2 July, the night before my birthday. That's the night I make my resolutions. And this year scares the life out of me, because no matter how successful, how good things appear, there is always a deep core of failure within me, although I am trying to deal with it. My biggest fear, this coming year, is that I will be waking up alone.
It makes me wonder how many bodies will be fished out of the Thames, how many decaying corpses will be found in one-room flats.
I'm just being realistic. — Tracey Emin
![No Resolutions Quotes By Peter T. King No Resolutions Quotes By Peter T. King](https://quotessayings.net/pics/no-resolutions-quote-by-peter-t-king-1378607.jpg)
We went into Iraq because Saddam Hussein refused to account for his weapons of mass destruction, consistently violated UN resolutions and in a post-9/11 world no American president could afford to give Saddam Hussein the benefit of the doubt. — Peter T. King
