"To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly." ― Henri Bergson Topic(s): Change More From Henri Bergson "You will obtain a vision of matter that is perhaps fatiguing for your imagination, but pure and stripped of what the requirements of life make you add to it in external perception." "Spirit borrows from matter the perceptions on which it feeds and restores them to matter in the form of movements which it has stamped with its own freedom." "Instinct perfected is a faculty of using and even constructing organized instruments; intelligence perfected is the faculty of making and using unorganized instruments." More In Change "Well… I had braces and I had to wear headgear! I loved my braces, actually. For me, they were like a piece of jewelry! Instead of the silver or pewter I had gold braces. It was so much fun, I loved them. I got to change the colors and stuff and I had the rubber bands."― Jordin Sparks "Change is not only likely, it’s inevitable."― Barbara Sher "Depakote also has a really bad side effect, which is death."― Margot Kidder
