In 1699, Jonathan Swift (author of Gulliver’s Travels) resolved “Not to neglect decency, or cleenlyness, for fear of falling into Nastyness.”

In 1955, Marilyn Monroe (a famous American actress) resolved to “keep looking around me — only much more so — observing — but not only myself but others and everything — take things (it) for what they (it’s) are worth.”

In 1942, Woody Guthrie (American folk musician) resolved to “Write a song every day” and to “Stay glad.”
