Quotes

I have written all of these quotes. Credit if you use.

 = new

Inspirational:

Live your life the way you want to, because if anybody cares, then you can tell they're not as happy as you are.

Everybody has regrets, even if they say they don't. You can either spend the rest of your life trying to fix what can't be fixed, or just tell yourself the truth: you're not perfect and never will be. So it's ok.

You can't change the past, only your perspective of it.

Success isn't about always getting what you want. It's about learning to be content with saying you tried your best.

Sometimes all you need is one person with faith in you to give you back faith in yourself.

You shouldn't love something because you're good at it. You should be good at something because you love it.

Don't worry when things don't go the way you wanted them to. Every time something goes wrong, something comes out of the situation that's better than the original plan.

Don't live your life always wanting to be the best. Because if you do, you'll miss out on some great chances to be the best you can be.

Yeah, at times, life is gonna suck. Get used to it. And remember that things will get better.

You can't blame another person for snatching up something you willingly surrendured.

Okay, maybe of my dreams are a little big, a little out there; but at least I'm not afraid to dream.

To all those who were friendly to me when I needed friends; to all those who listened when I needed someone to talk to; to all those who were willing to act crazy and stupid with me when I needed to let go; to all those who sent their prayers when I was going through the roughest times; to all those people, I just want to say thank you for helping me out. And to all those who weren't willing to talk to me if I wasn't cool; to all those who listened to me and then told everyone else what I said; to all those who put crazy videos of me on YouTube for the whole world to see; to all of them too, I want to say thank you for making me who I am.

If anybody laughs at you for dreaming of making it into med school, or being an actress, or writing a great novel, or going into politics, or whatever, ignore it. Tune those people out. Because they'll see who's laughing when you're a world-renowned doctor, or on Broadway, or winning the Pulitzer Prize, or the next president of the United States. Yup, we'll see who's laughing then.

Never worry about filling someone else's shoes, because everyone's a different size.

 You start truly living when you realize there are things worth dying for.

Christian:

Learn to look past first impressions. After all, the world was saved by a carpenter from Nazareth.

I don't need makeup or cool clothes; Jesus knows I'm beautiful.

Forgiving someone who has hurt you badly is hard, but do you want to know what's even harder? Wanting forgiveness and being denied it.

The only thing in this dirty world worth paying for is Jesus' love. And it's free.

I'm not perfect & quite frankly, I hope I never am, because then I might start to think I don't need God.

"Friends with benefits"? Uh, yeah, all friends have benefits. Might as well just call him "some kid I sleep with".

Tough situations are like a Chinese finger trap; the harder you struggle to get out, the harder it is, but if you go towards God it makes everything so much easier.

The thing is, a lot of times we look at people like the saints and think of them as so distant, so different; we think we can never be like them. What we fail to realize is that they started just like us.

Don't ask God to solve all your problems. That's not what prayer's about. It's about asking for wisdom and guidance so you can solve them.

 When you get out into the real world, you start to discover that being a hardcore, diehard Catholic doesn't make you popular. But if you really are a hardcore, diehard Catholic, that shouldn't matter.

 Jesus hung on the cross for 3 hours and sacrificed his life for us. I think we can sacrifice an hour a week to go to church.

Love/Heartbreak:

At one point in your life, you'll meet the right guy and say to yourself, "I just know that's him."

You know you love someone when you're able to stare at their picture for hours and not be the least bit bored.

He said, "I love you", & she just walked away because she knew he didn't mean it.

& I spent that whole night scribbling your name on scraps of paper, then shredding them and throwing them away because I didn't want anyone to see. I didn't want them to know how much I missed you.

I always thought I'd be the girl who never fell in love... until I met you.

Whenever you smile, I always smile back,
But on the inside I'm having a heart attack.

Here's what I don't get: Why is it easier for me to solve a damn rubix cube than to tell him how I feel?

Saying that I don't love you would be like saying that apples, bananas, and oranges aren't fruits. That Earth doesn't orbit around the sun. That humans aren't living creatures. IT WOULDN'T BE TRUE.

I've wasted so many days THINKING OF YOU. I've used up so many tissues CRYING FOR YOU. I've broken my own heart just by TALKING TO YOU. But you know what? I'm done. I'M THROUGH.

You know you love him when he brings out the best in you. If you focus on him, you ace that test. If you know he's watching, you always make that goal.

I spent so much time crying. Not because you didn't love me, but because I had been too stupid to realize it.

I'm the kind of girl that right when he's about to ask me out, I'll change the subject. Because I'm scared. Scared of being hurt.

There are so many things I wanna ask you. Why don't you call me anymore? Or even send a text? Why do you walk right past me without saying anything? Why do you insist on pretending we never had something?

Being thin doesn't mean I'm anorexic. Being random doesn't mean I'm a freak. Being smart doesn't mean I love school. Being your friend doesn't mean I'm not in love with you.

I want a guy who texts me a love note when we're in the same room; who brings me along on guys' night out; who isn't afraid to kiss me when I have the flu. I want a guy who loves me.

& I'm the kind of girl who will gladly give him my number; then when he calls me, I'll check who it is and then just listen to it ring because I'm too scared to pick it up.

& let me tell you that you have no idea how much you hurt her. Only reason it doesn't show is because she doesn't let it.

Winter is my favorite season because when it's cold it's a chance for you to hold me tight.

When I met you, I was at a point where I hated all guys. I didn't think that anyone could ever be decent. But you showed me that I was wrong, that there was such a thing as a nice guy, that someone might love me. You became my priority, and I focused on nothing but you. My grades went down, my friends started leaving, but I didn't care. All that mattered was being with you. I loved you. But all good things must come to an end. And after I saw you making out with her, I realized that I had been right all along. Guys only want to break your heart. Don't do anything for them that they wouldn't do for you.

I trusted you with my life and you nearly destroyed it.

I've always been protective of myself and of my feelings. I've never gotten too close to anyone, and never let anyone get close to me. But when you came into my life, I was so sure it was love that I went against everything I believed in to be with you. And out of the whole experience, I learned one thing: I should've stuck with what I believed.

You're both the best and worst thing that's ever happened to me.

Maybe falling in love with you was a stupid mistake, but hey, we all make a lot of mistakes in life. What's one more?

Your husband is your best friend, right? So why go looking for a boyfriend who'll love you for a moment, instead of looking for a friend who'll love you for a lifetime?

Whoever said you can't help who you fall in love was wrong. Because you can. You can be strong and not let yourself get swept off your feet by every guy that comes your way.

I love you; those three words are [nice], but they mean nothing if you can't prove it.

Yeah so um okay maybe I'm in love with you...

I'm not quite sure what it was that made me fall for you... but whatever it is, could you STOP IT???

Truth is, some girls just get swept off their feet too soon. They don't know what's good for them and let some guy make them think he's in love with them. So this is to all those girls out there: Don't let that happen to you. Because you'll only wind up getting hurt. Bad.

I've just been so confused lately. I spent so much time making myself look hot when I'm around you, acting smart in my classes with you, flirting with you, being in love with you and trying to make you fall in love with me. Now, how come I finally have you, and I'm starting to feel like I love you less?

& Honey, when you said you loved me, I was convinced that you meant it. You should have a leading role in the school play, because you're the best actor I've ever seen.

 Is it wrong to think that, for just one moment, you were mine?

Friendship:

There have been so many times
I wanted to just break down and cry
But you were there to stop the tears from flowing.
If I needed a hand, you gave me a limb.
You've stood by me even when times looked grim.
You'll never ever have any way of knowing
How much you mean to me.

A true friend gives you her last cookie.
A best friend takes your last cookie, shoves it in her mouth, and yells, "Haha, loser."

Occasionally, you find your best friend only through incredible luck and coincidence. And you realize it's funny the way things work out; the girl you love most is the one you thought you would hate.

And if after this very moment we never see each other again,
I just want to thank you for being my friend.

You hurt her, I hurt you.
Because she's my best friend, and that's what we do.

If you're able to go through life with one real, true friend, consider yourself lucky.

Yeah, I'm a loser; yeah, i get hyper and crazy sometimes; yeah, me and my friends love being nuts and basking in our loser-ness, JEALOUS MUCH???

Hoo needs speling when I've gott my bestest frends?

You know you've got a great friend when you can go to them for anything, from fixing your hair to beating up the guy that broke your heart.  

I could write a long quote about how amazing she is, how much she means to me, how much I love her, etc. But I don't need to do that. Because she [[k n o w s]].

Maybe I'm not the coolest person in the world, maybe I have some bad qualities, maybe I don't understand things like others do, but to tell the truth, I really don't care. I've got my friends and they're all that matter.

BFF - It's not just a title, it's a promise.

To all those girls out there who don't have a best friend: I feel so bad for you. You've got no idea what you're missing.

Maybe Vitamin C thought we could all be friends forever, but that just ain't true. People separate or grow apart, and some just wind up hating each other in the end. I'm just glad to know that me and my buds have that special kind of bond, the one that'll hold us together even in the roughest situations. Then we really can be best friends forever.

Great friends are like a great brownie: sweet, a little nutty, and with something great to top it all off. But if you let it sit too long without eating it, it'll never taste as good.

 I've heard a lot of people call their best friend the cheese to their macaroni. I guess that means you're bland and boring without them? Well, my best friend is the macaroni to my cheese. Because without macaroni, a packet of powdered cheese is just...nothing.

Miscellaneous:

There's two kinds of cool: "cool but not cool" and "not cool but cool". The "cool but not cool" people are the fakes, the ones who try to follow the crowd and put others down. The "not cool but cool" people love who they are. They're loyal friends, and they're not afraid to act random and stupid. Who do you want to be?

Life isn't like the books and movies written about it. "Good wins, bad loses", it's all a cliche. Why hasn't anyone ever written a book like reality, where the protagonist always fails?

Some people are like slurpees: icy cold at first but eventually it all melts away and you see how great they are.

I know I'm a loser. And the best part is, I don't care.

I've heard people say, "It's not about what you say, it's how you say it." Oh yeah? So it's better to say "You suck" in a kind, gentle tone than "I love you" bitterly?

Oh really? We don't need to change our attitudes? There are people starving, and all we care about is the new episode of Laguna.

Never be afraid to just kick off your shoes and DANCE.

Never believe the rumors. Look at Romeo and Juliet. They DIED because of some stupid misunderstanding.

If I'm being quiet, it doesn't mean I'm a quiet person. It means I'm saving my energy for my next big loud, random, crazy moment.

I can't wait to grow up. Because when I do, I can tell my kids, "When I was your age, Pluto was a planet."

You can't write the best comedy. Because life's most hilarious moments are unscripted.

Okay, so maybe we can't fight the man, but we can beat up a man, which is still pretty fun.

I'm not wrong; I'm right in a wrong way.

Why would you wanna be just like everybody else? Everyone knows copycats are annoying.

I just don't get why any person would strive so hard to be "popular". Trends are stupid and they fade. & even though it sounds clichèd, if you have to change just to be someone's friend they're not your friend. Hell, you're way too good for them.

If you try to change who you are, you'll end up not even knowing yourself anymore.
