15 Best 'Grey's Anatomy' Quotes Of All Time
E!

"Grey's Anatomy" may just be the best show to ever premiere on television. The TV sensation incorporates drama, medicine, and attractive doctors all in one place. Besides these enticing factors, there's an added bonus: the wise words that the characters have spoken to us over the years. (Or, if you're binge-watching, a few months). "Grey's Anatomy" quotes are perfect for everything from falling in love to your first heartbreak, loosing a friend to finding a new BFF, making the biggest decision of your life to just getting through the week.

Here are some of the best Grey's Anatomy quotes:

1. "Knowing is better than wondering. Waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beats the hell out of never trying." --Meredith Grey, Season 1 Episode 6.

2. "If there's an upside to free-falling, it's the chance you give your friends to catch you." -- Meredith Grey, Season 2 Episode 3.

3. "It turns out sometimes you have to do the wrong thing. Sometimes you have to make a big mistake to figure out how to make things right. Mistakes are painful, but they're the only way to find out who we really are." --Denny Duquette, Season 3 Episode 4

4. "Sometimes it's good to be scared. It means you still have something to lose." --Richard Webber, Season 4 Episode 10

5. "Have some fire. Be unstoppable. Be a force of nature. Be better than anyone here and don't give a damn about what anyone thinks." --Cristina Yang, Season 4 Episode 15

6. "You never know the biggest day of your life is going to be the biggest. The days you think are going to be the big ones, they are never as big as you make them out to be in your head. It's the regular days, the ones that start out normal. Those are the days that end up being the biggest." --Izzie Stevens, Season 5 Episode 22.

7. "We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning for the future, trying to predict the future, as if figuring it out will cushion the blow. But the future is always changing. The future is the home of our deepest fears and wildest hopes. But one thing is certain when it finally reveals itself. The future is never the way we imagined it." --Meredith Grey, Season 5 Episode 23.

8. "Did you say it? 'I love you.' 'I don't ever want to live without you.' 'You changed my life.' Did you say it? Make a plan. Set a goal. Work toward it, but every now and then look around; Drink it in 'cause this is it. It might all be gone tomorrow." --Meredith Grey, Season 5 Episode 24

9. "The human life is made up of choices. Yes or no. In or out. Up or down. And then there are the choices that matter. Love or hate. To be a hero or to be a coward. To fight not to give in. To live or die. Live or die. That's the important choice. And it's not always in our hands." --Derek Shepherd, Season 6 Episode 24.

10. "Just when we think we figured things out, the universe throws us a curveball. So, we have to improvise. We find happiness in unexpected places. We find ourselves back to the things that matter the most. The universe is funny that way. Sometimes it just has a way of making sure we wind up exactly where we belong." --Meredith Grey, Season 7 Episode 10.

11. "If you love someone, you tell them. Even if you're scared that it's not the right thing. Even if you're scared that it'll cause problems. Even if you're scared that it will burn your life to the ground, you say it, and you say it loud and you go from there." -Mark Sloan, Season 9 Episode 2.

12. "Don't let what he wants eclipse what you need. He's very dreamy, but he's not the sun. You are!" --Cristina Yang, Season 10 Episode 24.

13. "If you aren't willing to keep looking for light in the darkest of places without stopping, even when it seems impossible, you will never succeed." --Amelia Shepherd, Season 11 Episode 11.

14. "We lose those battles as often as we succeed. The key, though, win or lose, is to never fail. And the only way to fail is not to fight. So fight until you can't fight anymore. Never let go. Never give up. Never run. Never surrender. Fight the good fight, you fight even when it seems inevitable you're about to go down swinging." --Amelia Shepherd, Season 11 Episode 14.

15. "You can build a house out of anything. Make it as strong as you want. But a home, a home is more fragile than that. A home is made of the people you fill it with. And people can be broken, sure, but any surgeon knows, what's broken can be mended. What's hurt can be healed. That no matter how dark it gets the sun's going to rise again." --Meredith Grey, Season 11 Episode 24.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
