We all know that the weeks approaching spring break are the craziest, most stressful, weeks of the semester. The beginning of the semester always starts off easy, no exams, and barely any assignments. But as we gravitate closer to break, it seems like all our professors are throwing exams and assignments at us, left and right. How do we find the motivation to deal with all this stress, study till early hours in the morning, and question if this is even worth it? We turn to quotes. Quotes that motivate us to keep going, to want to be successful and make us long for the day that we won't have to deal with the stresses of pre-break insanity.

Here are eight quotes to help motivate you through the next two and a half weeks full of stress, they'll make you want to kill it on your exams and the assignments and make us believe we'll make it out alive (barely).
