15 Life-Changing Quotes Everyone Needs
Quote Fancy

Everyone loves quotes. Whether they’re for motivation or just some really cute ones about love, everyone has seen and applied them to their life at some point. However, there are the unique few that can be considered "life-changing" as they help one to obtain a totally new perspective on all kinds of events and personal experiences. Here are some that have definitely changed my life for the better, and I know they could help you too:

“If it’s important to you, you’ll find a way. If not, you’ll find an excuse.” - Ryan Blair


“We accept the love we think we deserve.” - Stephen Chbosky


"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." - Robert Frost


“Let’s go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday.” – Steve Jobs



“What would you do if you weren’t afraid?” - Sheryl Sandberg


“The world is changed by your example, not by your opinion." - Paulo Coelho


“Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.” - Dr. Seuss


“Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option.” - Mark Twain


“If you don't build your dream, someone will hire you to help build theirs." - Tony Gaskins


"Choose a job you love and you will never work a day in your life." - Confucius


"A ship is safe in the harbor, but that's not what ships are for." - William G.T. Shedd


“It's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." - Abraham Lincoln



“Until you are happy with who you are, you will never be happy with what you have.” - Zig Ziglar


“The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.” – Albert Einstein



“There is no passion to be found in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” - Nelson Mandela

These quotes are all short and to-the-point, but that does not mean they are any less powerful. Words are amazing things that can convey how we feel through works of poetry and music. These quotes are tools that, if implemented, can truly change someone’s life, and if these are words that you needed to hear, let them change you into the person you truly do want to become.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
