11 Quotes To Give You The Extra Boost You Need
PEXELS

The power of a quote can instantly change someone's life. It's crazy to think about how much power one quote has. After asking my friends what quotes stick with them, I realized that every single person has at least one they have memorized. Before you read on, think about any quote. You can probably think of at least one or two. A common one that most of my friends memorized is, "Be yourself, everyone else is taken." Powerful words from the man himself, Oscar Wilde. Why do these quotes stick with us so much? In my opinion, quotes gives us hope, something to think about, and it even becomes a mantra, a way of living. Even something small like, "don't lie," sticks with us. My mom hounds me with that all the time, and to this day I will not lie.

Here are 11 quotes to give you the extra boost you need today:

1. "It's kind of fun to do the impossible." -Walt Disney
2. "If you don't like the road you're walking, start paving another one." - Dolly Parton
3. "It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." - Edmund Hillary

4. "In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity." - Albert Einstein

5. "Defeat may serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out." - Edwin Markum

6. "Whatever you can do or dream, you can begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it." - Goethe

7. "Overcome the notion that you must be regular. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary." - Uta Hagen

8. "Have faith in yourself and in the future." - Ted Kennedy

9. "Find your purpose and fling your life out to it. Find a way or make one. Try with all your might. Self-made or never made." - Orison Sweet Marden

10. "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle." - Christian D. Larson

11. "Who says, who says, you can't be superman" - Hannah Montana

P.S. You got this dude.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
