The only way to break a bad habit was to replace it with a better habit.

Jack Nicholson

I'm focused on the next generation, because I think it's very hard to break the habit of adults who've got salt and sugar addictions and just ways of being in this world. It's very hard even for the most enlightened people at famous universities that are very wealthy to spend the money that it takes to feed the students something delicious.

Alice Waters

You get to where you kind of like it, and It's a habit That's hard to break. I still find myself sittin' in a cafe, like a pizza parlor.

Chris LeDoux

A fixed habit is supported by old, well-worn pathways in the brain. When you make conscious choices to change a habit, you create new pathways. At the same time, you strengthen the decision-making function of the cerebral cortex while diminishing the grip of the lower, instinctual brain. So without judging your habit, whether it feels like a good one or a bad one, take time to break the routine, automatic response that habit imposes.

Deepak Chopra

The best way to break a bad habit is to drop it.

Leo Aikman

The truth is, you don't break a bad habit; you replace it with a good one.

Denis Waitley

It is easier to learn a bad habit than to break one. It is easier to break a good habit than to learn one.

Evelyn E. Smith

I quit steaks for a while, but it's a hard habit to break.

Carrie-Anne Moss

Lovers, when they are no longer in love, find it very hard to break up.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

We have a high ceiling. We're still young. We're still learning coach's system and we're still learning how to play hard every night. I think that's been a bad habit of ours the last few years. It's a habit that's hard to shake, too. I think if we keep pushing, we'll be alright this season.

Andrew Bogut

It's just as hard for man to break the habit of thinking of himself as central to the species as it was to break the habit of thinking of himself as central to the universe. He sees himself quite unconsciously as the main line of evolution, with a female satellite revolving around him as the moon revolves around the earth. This not only causes him to overlook valuable clues to our ancestry, but sometimes leads him into making statements that are arrant and demonstrable nonsense.
