In the New Year, may your right hand always be stretched out
in friendship, never in want.

And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:
Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown. And he replied: Go
out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to
you better than light, and safer than a known way.
Movie: "When
Harry Met Sally", Harry Burns
And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to
before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not
because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you
want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your
life to start as soon as possible.
Edith Lovejoy Pierce

put words on them ourselves. The book is called "Opportunity"

Your Merry Christmas may depend on what others do for you.
But your Happy New Year depends on what you do for others.
William Makepeace
Thackeray
Certain corpuscles, denominated Christmas Books, with the
ostensible intention of swelling the tide of exhilaration, or other expansive
emotions, incident upon the exodus of the old and the inauguration of the New
Year.
Aisha Elderwyn
Every new year people make resolutions to change aspects of
themselves they believe are negative. A majority of people revert back to how
they were before and feel like failures. This year I challenge you to a new
resolution. I challenge you to just be yourself.
F. M. Knowles, A
Cheerful Year Book
He who breaks a resolution is a weakling; He who makes one
is a fool.
G. K. Chesterton
The object of a new year is not that we should have a new
year. It is that we should have a new soul.
John Greenleaf
Whittier
We meet today
To thank Thee for the era done,
And Thee for the opening one
T. S. Eliot
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.
Emily Miller
Then sing, young hearts that are full of cheer,
With never a thought of sorrow;
The old goes out, but the glad young year
Comes merrily in tomorrow
Martin Luther King
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
Walter Scott
Each age has deemed the new born year
The fittest time for festal cheer
Benjamin Franklin
Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your
neighbors, and let each New Year find you a better man.
Edgar A. Guest
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.
William Arthur Ward
This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
What can be said in New Year rhymes,
That's not been said a thousand times?
The new years come, the old years go,
We know we dream, we dream we know.
We rise up laughing with the light,
We lie down weeping with the night.
We hug the world until it stings,
We curse it then and sigh for wings.
We live, we love, we woo, we wed,
We wreathe our prides, we sheet our dead.
We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear,
And that's the burden of a year.
Charles Lamb
Of all sound of all bells, the most solemn and touching is
the peal which rings out the Old Year.
