Her Campus

It is no secret that college is hard. You can study for an exam for a full week and still not get an A. It happens and it's rough. As midterms are currently underway for college students, stress levels remain sky-high. When that stress creeps up on you and all you want to do is take a nap instead of study, check out these 16 inspirational quotes. You can make it through. I promise.

1. "Whether you think you can or think you can't, you are right."
-Henry Ford

2. "Our weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time." - Thomas A. Edison

3. "We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained."
- Marie Curie

4. "If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced."
- Vincent Van Gogh

5. "Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do."
- Oprah Winfrey

6. "Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway."
- Earl Nightingale

7. "Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world."
- Nelson Mandel

8. "Every year, many, many stupid people graduate from college. If they can do it, so can you."
- John Green

9. "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose."

10. "Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a branch new ending."

11. "The value of a college education is not the learning of many facts, but the training of the mind to think."
- Albert Einstein

12. "College is something you complete. Life is something you experience. So don't worry about your grade, or the results or success. Success is defined in myriad ways, and you will find it, and people will no longer be grading you, but it will come from your own internal sense of decency."
- Jon Stewart

13. "Working hard is important, but there is something that matters even more: believing in yourself."
- Harry Potter

14. "Life is the most exciting opportunity we have. But we have one shot. You graduate from college once, and that's it. You're going out of the nest. And you have to find that courage that's deep, deep down in there. Every step of the way."
- Andrew Shue

And finally...

15. "You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honorably. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give."
- E.O. Wilson

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.
