10 Quotes to Get You Through It

Sometimes we just need to know that we’re not alone. Sometimes we just need to know that everything is going to be okay. Sometimes we just need to know that we’re doing a good job. The following 15 quotes will hopefully get you through it, whatever your “it” might be.

3. When the past creeps back in...

"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards." -Søren Kierkegaard

4. When you're craving excitement...

"Let life be an adventure. Live your life to the fullest, unfettered by fear of the ghosts and goblins of what might occur. Calamity and death happen as well to those who hide from life as to those who squeeze every drop of zest from it." -Jonathan Lockwood Hiue

5. When you need hope...

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

9. When you're holding onto hate...

"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." - Mahatma Gandhi

10. When you need some solid advice...

Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back." -Oscar Wilde

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.
