“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.”
— Martin Luther
„Resolution One: I will live for God. Resolution Two: If no one else does, I still will.” — Jonathan Edwards
“Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering ‘it will be happier’…” — Alfred, Lord Tennyson
“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.” — T.S. Eliot
“I do not advise that we end the year on a somber note. The march, not the dirge, has ever been the music of Christianity. If we are good students in the school of life, there is much that the years have to teach us. But the Christian is more than a student, more than a philosopher. He is a believer, and the object of his faith makes the difference, the mighty difference. Of all persons the Christian should be best prepared for whatever the New Year brings. He has dealt with life at its source. In Christ he has disposed of a thousand enemies that other men must face alone and unprepared. He can face his tomorrow cheerful and unafraid because yesterday he turned his feet into the ways of peace and today he lives in God. The man who has made God his dwelling place will always have a safe habitation.” — A.W. Tozer
“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
„Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the new year.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
„Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man.” — Benjamin Franklin
“An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.” — Bill Vaughan
“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
“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
“Although no one can go back and make a brand-new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand-new ending.” — Carl Bard
“The beginning is the most important part of the work.” — Plato
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” — Mark Twain
“Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Listen to the never-haves, then listen close to me … Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.” — Shel Silverstein
and a few others from around the internet-
„Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.” — Mother Teresa”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.” — Lord Tennyson
„Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.” — Albert Einstein
„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.” — Martin Luther
„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.” — T.S. Eliot, „Little Gidding”
„Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson

No one can go back in time to change what has happened. So work on your present to make yourself a wonderful future. Happy New Year.
You’re supposed to let go of the past and start off new. You are supposed to forgive all those who hurt you and be open to new relationships, with open arms. That is why, it is called the ‘New’ year. May you have a Happy New year.
May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see in you delight them. May someone love you enough to forgive your faults, be blind to your blemishes, and tell the world about your virtues.
