The Ten Reasons New Year’s Resolutions Fail

Yesterday, everybody smoked his last cigar, took 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.
~Mark Twain
