15 Life Quotes As Told By Dexter Morgan

There is no doubt in my mind that anyone who has ever watched "Dexter" could find the power in their heart to stop after one, two, or even after the fifth season, of this glorious show. The main character, Dexter Morgan, can be considered anyone's alter ego. Even if he isn't, his wit, sarcasm and blunt honesty makes him one of the most relatable characters in television. Here are fifteen memorable life quotes spoken by the genius himself:

1. "Me, feeling. What a concept."

2. "If home is where the heart is, where do you go when you don't have a heart?"

3. "I don't do my job to catch the bad guys. Why would I want to do that? No, my job is to make order out of chaos."

4. "A man can only take so much. Even a phony man like me."

5. "How bad could things be if my hair was neat?"

6. "It's okay. Life doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be lived."

7. "They make it look easy, connecting with another human being. It's like no one told them it's the hardest thing in the world."

8. "I had killed out careful relationship by driving my tongue through its heart and pushing it off a cliff."

9. Why do so many people start their messages with, "It's me." Of course it is you. We all know that. But who the hell are you?"

10. "We create our own destiny every day we live."

11. "Anybody can be charming if they don't mind faking it, saying all of the stupid, obvious, nauseating things that a conscience keeps most people from saying. Happily, I don't have a conscience, I say them."

12. "I love Halloween. The one time of the year when everyone wears a mask, not just me."

13. "I can always see other people's problems more clearly than my own."

14. "It's like, everything really is two ways: the way we all pretend it is and the way it really is."

15. "I did not like this feeling of having feelings."


No matter bold, dark, and insensitive his beliefs are, at some point in our lives, we have all felt as such. Dexter Morgan is quite the character and his evolution throughout the eight seasons was amazingly unexpected.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
