the only thing the universe refuses to stop doing, even to itself.
means To make or become different, or to swap one thing for another.
from From Latin 'cambiare,' to exchange or barter, which slipped through Vulgar Latin and Old French ('changier') into English in the medieval period. The Latin root likely traces to an older Celtic word for 'to bend' or 'turn' — so at its deepest, 'change' is just the act of turning into something else. The 'spare coins' meaning came later, from the exchanging of money.
