I have a few New Year's Traditions that I follow:
1. Spend New Year's Eve at home with my L(ovely)W(ife).
2. To be asleep when the New Year comes in.
3. To not make any New Year's resolutions.
These traditions work well for me, though they might not be as good for others.
New Year's is a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, and friendly calls and humbug resolutions. Mark Twain
New Year's Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly, provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time. James Agate
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
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
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. Mark Twain
Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account. Oscar Wilde
YEAR, n. A period of three hundred and sixty-five disappointments. (DD- Ambrose Bierce)
