A new season of "Grey's Anatomy" is once again upon us. A new season means a new season of love, excitement, heartache, and more importantly, inspiring quotes. For twelve seasons we have followed Meredith through the good and the bad. Throughout the years she has left us with a vast amount of wisdom and advice.

In honor of the new season starting, here are 15 times "Grey's Anatomy" got it right with their quotes.

1. “’Cause you never think that the last time is the last time. You think there will be more. You think you have forever, but you don’t.”

2. “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.”

3. “If there’s just one piece of advice I can give you, it’s this – when there’s something you really want, fight for it, don’t give up no matter how hopeless it seems. And when you’ve lost hope, ask yourself in 10 years from now, you’re gonna wish you gave it just one more shot because the best things in life, they don’t come free.”

4. “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 go from there.”

6. “So, you can waste you lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.”

7. "He is not the sun. You are."

8. “So, do it. Decide. Is this the life you want to live? Is this the person you want to love? Is this the best you can be? Can you be stronger? Kinder? More compassionate? Decide. Breathe in. Breathe out and decide.”

9. “Letting go is the easy part. It’s the moving on that’s painful. So sometimes we fight it, trying to keep things the same. Things can’t stay the same though. At some point you just have to let go, move on. Because no matter how painful it is, it’s the only way we grow.”

10. “If you want crappy things to stop happening to you, then stop accepting crap and demand something more.”

11. “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.”

12. “The expected is just the beginning. The unexpected is what changes our lives.”

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.”
