New Year Quotes

Youth is when you’re allowed to stay up late on New Year’s Eve.  Middle age is when you’re forced to.

An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in.  A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.

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

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

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

No one ever regarded the First of January with indifference.  It is that from which all date their time, and count upon what is left.  It is the nativity of our common Adam.

New Year’s Day is every man’s birthday.

Never tell your resolution beforehand, or it’s twice as onerous a duty.

Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.

The merry year is born
Like the bright berry from the naked thorn.

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.

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!

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

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

The proper behavior all through the holiday season is to be drunk.  This drunkenness culminates on New Year’s Eve, when you get so drunk you kiss the person you’re married to.

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.

New Year’s Day:  Now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions.  Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual.

The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows.

For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.

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.

Yesterday, everybody smoked his last cigar, took his last drink and swore his last oath.  Today, we are a pious and exemplary community.  Thirty days from now, we shall have cast our reformation to the winds and gone to cutting our ancient shortcomings considerably shorter than ever.

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.

And ye, who have met with Adversity’s blast,
And been bow’d to the earth by its fury;
To whom the Twelve Months, that have recently pass’d
Were as harsh as a prejudiced jury -
Still, fill to the Future! and join in our chime,
The regrets of remembrance to cozen,
And having obtained a New Trial of Time,
Shout in hopes of a kindlier dozen.

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.

Each age has deemed the new-born year
The fittest time for festal cheer.

The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul.

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

Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.

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!

Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right.

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.

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.

Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given;
While angels sing with tender mirth,
A glad new year to all the earth.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

Never tell your resolution beforehand, or it’s twice as onerous a duty.

The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows.

New Year’s Day: Now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual.

Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account.

But can one still make resolutions when one is over forty? I live according to twenty-year-old habits.

One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: To rise above the little things.

May all your troubles last as long as your New Year’s resolutions.

He who breaks a resolution is a weakling;
He who makes one is a fool.

I think in terms of the day’s resolutions, not the year’s.

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.

New Year’s Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly, provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.

New year, same goal.

New Year’s Day is every man’s birthday.

For last year’s words belong to last year’s language and next year’s words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning.

The merry year is born
Like the bright berry from the naked thorn.

Each age has deemed the new born year
The fittest time for festal cheer

Youth is when you’re allowed to stay up late on New Year’s Eve. Middle age is when you’re forced to.

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.

Each age has deemed the new-born year
The fittest time for festal cheer.

We meet today
To thank Thee for the era done,
And Thee for the opening one.

Of all sound of all bells… most solemn and touching is the peal which rings out the Old Year.

New Year Sayings

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.

Now there are more overweight people in America than average-weight people. So overweight people are now average, which means, you have met your New Year’s resolution.

Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account.

Never tell your resolution beforehand, or it’s twice as onerous a duty.

Many people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits.

An optimist stays up until midnight to see the New Year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.

New Year’s Eve: Where auld acquaintance be forgot…Unless, of course, those tests come back positive!

The object of a new year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul.

It wouldn’t be New Year’s if I didn’t have regrets.

Ever new year is the direct descendant, isn’t it, of a long line of proven criminals?

New Year’s Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly, provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.

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.

A dog’s New Year’s Resolution: I will not chase that stick unless I actually see it leave his hand!

Here’s to the bright New Year, and a fond farewell to the old; here’s to the things that are yet to come, and to the memories that we hold.

The New Year, like an Infant Heir to the whole world, was waited for, with welcomes, presents, and rejoicings.

Be at war with your vices; at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man.

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.

Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given;
While angels sing with tender mirth,
A glad new year to all the earth.

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

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.

For last year’s words belong to last year’s language and next year’s words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning.

No one ever regarded the First of January with indifference. It is that from which all date their time, and count upon what is left. It is the nativity of our common Adam.

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.

For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.

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

New Year’s Eve

Another full-orbed year hath waned to-day,
And set in the irrevocable past,
And headlong whirled long Time’s winged blast
My fluttering rose of youth is borne away:
Ah rose once crimson with the blood of May,
A honeyed haunt where bees would break their fast,
I watch thy scattering petals flee aghast,
And all the flickering rose-lights turning grey.

Poor fool of life! plagued ever with thy vain
Regrets and futile longings! were the years
Not cups o’erbrimming still with gall and tears?
Let go thy puny personal joy and pain!
If youth with all its brief hope disappears,
To deathless hope we must be born again.

IT’S NEW YEAR

Time to address
a new year
…. enter

deal with the project at hand
yet resolve not to dwell on past
never stop dreaming
even on the last exhale
and find it in your heart
to forgive
then you will be forgiven in likeness
try
smile,
even when sad
this provokes the inner smile
to surface
take each day
as it’s dealt
and be thankful for the wealth
mother nature doles
now take a deeeeeeeeep
meditative breath
you’re alive … aren’t you?

with the smell of new rain
Let’s forget past mistakes

New Years Prayer

Dear Lord,
In the new year, we pray
that You will guide us each new day
in paths that are pleasing to You.
Lord, the new year gives us another chance
to rededicate our lives to You,
to study Your Word
so that we know right from wrong
and to act in accordance with Your commands.
Thank You for the sense of
direction, purpose and peace we get
from aligning our lives with Your Holy will.
We pray for the strength and the will to obey You
each and every day of the new year,
and when we fail, we pray for Your mercy,
Your compassion, Your grace and Your love.
Help us in the new year to be Your faithful servants.
In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

Christian New Year’s Resolutions

How can I use the New Year
To better serve my Lord?
I’ll read my Bible every day,
And be more in accord.

I’ll find new ways to serve others;
I’ll love my neighbor, too.
I’ll focus on “give” instead of “get”
In everything I do.

I’ll forgive the people I’m mad at;
Angry feelings I’ll discard;
I’ll try to love my enemies,
Even though it’s hard.

In the new year, I’ll lift people up,
Instead of putting them down.
I’ll fill my heart with love and joy,
And never wear a frown.

I’ll let go of my worries;
I’ll put it all in His hands;
I’ll repent and try to sin less,
And obey all His commands.

These new year’s resolutions
Are difficult, at best,
But there’s something I can do each day
That will put my soul at rest:

I’ll love my Lord with all my heart,
With all my mind and soul,
And if I do that essential thing,
All the rest will be in control.
