• NEW YEAR QUOTE OF THE PAGE
  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


• Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past.
  Henry Ward Beecher


• Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.
  Oprah Winfrey


• New Year's eve is like every other night; there is no pause in the march of the universe, no breathless moment of silence among created things that the passage of another twelve months may be noted; and yet no man has quite the same thoughts this evening that come with the coming of darkness on other nights.
  Hamilton Wright Mabie


• A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other.

  Bill Vaughan


• 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


• 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


• New Year's Day is every man's birthday.
  Charles Lamb


• 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


• Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.
  Bill Vaughn


• Many people look forward to the new year for a new start on old habits.
  Author Unknown


• I think in terms of the day's resolutions, not the year's.
  Henry Moore


• The Old Year has gone. Let the dead past bury its own dead. The New Year has taken possession of the clock of time. All hail the duties and possibilities of the coming twelve months!
  Edward Payson Powell


• Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man.
  Benjamin Franklin


• I do think New Year's resolutions can't technically be expected to begin on New Year's Day, don't you? Since, because it's an extension of New Year's Eve, smokers are already on a smoking roll and cannot be expected to stop abruptly on the stroke of midnight with so much nicotine in the system. Also dieting on New Year's Day isn't a good idea as you can't eat rationally but really need to be free to consume whatever is necessary, moment by moment, in order to ease your hangover. I think it would be much more sensible if resolutions began generally on January the second.
  Bridget Jones's Diary


• Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past. Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go.
  Brooks Atkinson


• 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


• People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas.
  Author Unknown


• A new oath holds pretty well; but... when it is become old, and frayed out, and damaged by a dozen annual retryings of its remains, it ceases to be serviceable; any little strain will snap it.
  Mark Twain


• We meet today To thank Thee for the era done, And Thee for the opening one.
  John Greenleaf Whittier
