20 Quotes We All Need To Hear This Finals Season
Emma Kindsvatter

In This Article:

As a struggling college student, I've found that sometimes running to my dorm and breaking down after class is the best way to get rid of the stress school can bring. Once I've used about three boxes of tissues and talked to my Mom for an hour, it's about time I bounce back like the strong woman I am. I find that quotes are some of the best ways to make myself feel better. These are just a few quotes I've found over the years that I live by.

1. "Remember who you were before the world told you who to be."

2. "Every sixty seconds you spend being upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back."

3. "Sometimes, you just need a break. In a beautiful place, alone. To figure everything out."

4. "Just because my path is different doesn't mean I'm lost."

5. "Do no harm, but take no shit."

6. "You're not sensitive, they're just being a dick to you."

7. "Stop overthinking, just DO."

8. "Today, I will not stress over things I cannot control." 

9. "It always seems impossible until it is done."

10. "EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON."

11. "Nothing can dim the light that shines from within."

12. "Make it happen. Shock everyone."

13. "Life is tough, but you're tougher."

14. "Never confuse a single defeat with a final."

15. "Don't ever feel guilty for doing what's best for you." 

16. "If you wait until you're ready, you'll be waiting for the rest of your life."

17. "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful."

18. "Small changes eventually add up to huge results."

19. "Choose happy today."

20. "Be the best version of yourself."

I know, most of these are totally tattoo worthy, no need to quote me when you're getting inked up next week. In all seriousness, we all need some quotes to keep us strong sometimes, and these have helped me remember that life is 100% worth living.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
