INFJ personalities are the most exclusive minority. INFJ stands for: Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Judging.

Those with this personality type are gentle, empathetic, artistic, and creative. They're complex people, who rely on intuition and emotions to advocate for what they believe in.

These creative and intuitive souls often find their way into the spotlight, whether it be for politics, entertainment or activism.

Here are 35 celebrities, and other important influences, you may not have known are/were an INFJ:

3. Adam Sandler

4. Woody Allen


"I've never felt Truth was Beauty. Never. I've always felt that people can't take too much reality. I like being in Ingmar Bergman's world. Or in Louis Armstrong's world. Or in the world of the New York Knicks. Because it's not this world. You spend your whole life searching for a way out. You just get an overdose of reality, you know, and it's a terrible thing. I'm always fighting against reality."

5. Martin Luther King Jr.

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."

8. George Harrison

"Try to realize it's all within yourself; no one else can make you change, and to see you're only very small and life flows on within you and without you."

9. Prince


"As human beings we suffer from an innate tendency to jump to conclusions; to judge people too quickly and to pronounce them failures or heroes without due consideration of the actual facts and ideals of the period."

10. Carrie Fisher


"I am a spy in the house of me. I report back from the front lines of the battle that is me. I am somewhat nonplused by the event that is my life."

11. Thomas Jefferson

"I could not live in a world without books."

12. Mahatma Gandhi


"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty."

13. Al Pacino


"My weaknesses... I wish I could come up with something. I'd probably have the same pause if you asked me what my strengths are. Maybe they're the same thing."

14. Nathaniel Hawthorne


"No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true."

25. Edgar Allan Poe


"Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night."

26. Woodrow Wilson


"If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience."

27. Martin Van Buren


"No evil can result from its inhibition more pernicious than its toleration."

28. Emily Dickinson


"A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day."

33. Kurt Cobain

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
