March 4. It's almost here. The day that Frank Underwood reenters our lives. And if you're a "House of Cards" fanatic like I am, this means that you most likely will not leave your room for a few days because you will be watching the majority of the season (Thanks, Netflix) in one sitting. To remind us all of some of our favorite "HoC" moments, here are the best 20 quotes from the most entertaining and ruthless politician on television.

1. "Even Achilles was never as strong as his heel."

2. "The road to power is paved with hypocrisy, and casualties."

3. "If we never did anything we shouldn't do, we'd never feel good about doing the things we should."

4. "Pay attention to the fine print. It's far more important than the selling price."

5. "Power is my food. Combat is my sleep. Blood is my oxygen. Politics is my blood. Sleep is my enemy. My enemies are my food."

6. "There's no better way to over power a trickle of doubt than with the flood of naked truth."

7. "There is but one rule: hunt or be hunted."

8. "When the money's coming your way, you don't ask questions."

9. "After all, we are nothing more or less than what we choose to reveal."

10. "Generosity is its own form of power."

11. "I've always loathed the necessity of sleep. Like death, it puts even the most powerful men on their backs."

12. "Democracy is so overrated."

13. "Shake with your right hand, but hold a rock with your left."

14. "If you don't like how the table is set, turn over the table."

15. "Friends make the worst enemies."

16. "A great man once said, everything is about sex. Except sex. Sex is about power."

17. "Power is a lot like real estate. It's all about location, location, location. The closer you are to the source, the higher your property value."

19. "Imagination is its own form of courage."

And lastly:

20. "Even though I am an adult man, I enjoy video games."

Let the butchery begin.

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.

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.
