There's a reason why Blair Waldorf is so iconic, even though Gossip Girl ended like a million years ago (or 2012). Throughout the show's six seasons, Blair gave some pretty solid advice to all the girls watching her spectacular life from the comfort of their Netflix accounts. I've compiled a list of the top 13 Blair Waldorf quotes to live by.
1. “Destiny is for losers. It’s just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen.”
Don't wait around for something great to happen, go out there and make it happen yourself. If there's one thing that Blair Waldorf excels at, it's getting the job done. They don't call her "Queen B" for nothing.
2. “Feelings never do make sense. They get you all confused. Then they drive you around for hours before they drop you right back where you started.”
Sometimes the best thing to do is just deal with your emotions and then move on with your life. It's definitely not always easy, but feelings tend to just get in the way between you and your goals, especially if they're unhappy feelings.
3. "I’m not a stop along the way, I’m a destination.”
Every girl needs to have the same sense of self-worth that Blair does.
4. “If you really want something you don’t stop for anyone or anything until you get it."
Stop talking about what you're going to do and go out there and do it. Keep your eye on the prize, ladies.
5. “I don’t need a boyfriend to be fulfilled.”
This says it all. SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK.
6. “Once men have tasted caviar, it baffles me how they settle for catfish.”
We've all been there... that moment when you see your ex with a new girl that's not quite as awesome as you are. You can't change it, but he's made a terrible mistake.
7. "Have a little faith, and if that doesn't work, have a lot of mimosas."
Pretty solid advice.
8. “Whoever said money can’t buy happiness, didn’t know where to shop.”
It also helps if you've got millions in your bank account. For us average college girls, I recommend Target.
9. "If you’re going to be sad, you might as well be sad in Paris."
Basically, Paris is the best place to get over a heartbreak. Don't you all wish you had a friend that would take you to Europe whenever you felt down?
10. "A girl wants Romeo. Not Hamlet."
You need a guy that will commit to you, not keep you in the in between stages of dating while he decides if he really wants to be your boyfriend.
11. "What I want, is to become a powerful woman."
Good goals, B.
12. "We can't let the men of our past define us."
I'm sure y'all can relate. I know I can.
13. "You deserve a guy who would move mountains to be with you if he had to."
Basically, don't settle for less than that. Blair didn't tolerate Chuck's bad behavior, so she moved on with her life until he was willing to move Mount Everest for her.
