Hamilton has inspired those young and old across America. I have always loved American history but I've never gotten the chance to go in depth into it. That was until my best friend showed me the glories of Hamilton. Lin-Manuel Miranda first performed the opening number "Alexander Hamilton" for the President and First Lady of The United States at the White House Poetry Jam in 2009. Little did anyone know, they were experiencing the beginning of a worldwide phenomenon. Here are some of my favorite lines from Hamilton that made me first fall in love with the production.

1. "I'm a trust fund baby you can trust me."

This super catchy pickup line is spoken by no other than Aaron Burr and is one of the first things I loved about Hamilton.

2. "Awesome. Wow"

We have all had this attitude at some point.

3. "Heres an itemized list of 30 years of disagreements."

Because we all aspire to be this level of petty.

4. "Immigrants, we get the job done."

One of the most iconic lines from the production, this is especially relevant to America today. It really highlights the fact that we are a nation founded by immigrants.

5. "Talk less. Smile more."

Simple, yet effective.

6. "What is a legacy? It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see."

Hamilton emphasizes this multiple times both when he first comes to America and right before he dies. Our actions today determine our legacy for when we aren't here anymore. Just because we won't be here to see it, doesn't mean we should want to have any less of an impact on others.

7. "And when push comes to shove, I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love."

So. Much. Sass.

8. "I am the one thing in life I can control. I am inimitable, I am an original."

This is such a powerful song and it's probably the one time I actually like Aaron Burr.

9. "And when you said "Hi" I forgot my dang name."

Oh, the joys of having your first love.

10. "I'm just like my country. I'm young, scrappy and hungry. I am not throwing away my shot."

Seizing the opportunities placed in front of us, even if they aren't part of our initial plans, can change our life forever. I'm sure every Hamilton fan can find some deep meaning to this quote.

11. "You forfeit all rights to my heart."

I love this so much. There is so much girl power in this song and we've literally all been there.

12. "Keep ranting. We know who's really doing the planting."

THIS MOMENT. When I first heard this my jaw dropped. I couldn't believe Hamilton actually pointed this out. Seriously, a genius moment on Lin-Manuel Miranda's part.

13. "Dying is easy, young man. Living is harder."

This highlights the fact that we face challenges every day in our lives and it's how we get through them that make us human.
