For the past thirteen seasons, Grey's Anatomy has taught a lot of important life lessons. Here are some quotes that everyone needs to hear at some point in their lives:
Callie Torres:
1. "Don't spend all your time wondering what you are or who you like or whether it's right for you or wrong for you. Just let yourself be happy."
2. "There comes a point where you have to suck it up and stop whining and start living"
Meredith Grey:
1. "It's much better to be alone and feel like a success than in a relationship and feel like a failure."
2. "I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what you broke"
3. "When te ground gives way and your world collapses, maybe you just need to have faith. And trust. And trust that you can survive this. Maybe you just need to hold on tight. And no matter what, don't let go"
4. "Change, we don't like it, we fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. And it hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn't is lying. But here's the truth: the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes change is good."
5. "We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning for the future, trying to predict the future, as if figuring it out will cushion the blow. But the future is always changing. The future is the home of our deepest fears and wildest hopes. But one thing is certain when it finally reveals itself. The future is never the way we imagine it."
Derek Shepherd:
1. "It's how you stay alive. When it hurts so much you can't breathe, that's how you survive. By remembering one day, somehow, impossibly, you won't feel this way. It won't hurt this much"
2. "You deserve to be with somebody who makes you happy. Somebody who's not gonna complicate your life. Somebody who won't hurt you."
Cristina Yang:
1. "Have Some fire. Be unstoppable. Be a force of nature. Be better than anyone here, and don't give a damn what anyone thinks. There are no teams here, no buddies. You're on your own. Be on your own."
2. "Don't let what he wants eclipse what you need. He's very dreamy, but he's not hte sun, you are."
Alex Karev:
1. "It doesn't matter how tough we are. Trauma always leaves a scar. It follows us home, changes our lives. Trauma messes everybody up. But, maybe, that's the point. All the pain, the fear, and the crap. Maybe going through that is what keeps us moving forward. Maybe we have to get a little messed up before we can stand up"
2. "The point is it doesn't matter what the rest of us think. At the end of the day, all the matter is what you think."
Izzie Stevens:
1. "Time flies. Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us wants is more time. Time to stand up. Time to grow up. Time to let go. Time."
2. Just because people do horrible things, it doesn't always mean they're horrible people"
3. "Everyone needs help from time to time. Someone to look out for them. Marke sure they're okay."
Richard Webber:
1. "Sometimes it's good to be scared. It means you still have something to lose"
2. "The minute you see all the things you have, you see all the things that you stand to lose"
Miranda Bailey:
1. "Bad things happen, but you have to move past it. Leave it behind. The sooner, the better. Or it'll eat away at you and stop you from moving forward."
2. "You did a terrible thing. It doesn't mean you're a terrible person"
