Words to Live By

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Ohio U chapter.

We’re studying for finals and thinking maybe, just maybe, we’re going crazy doing it. But we want to end fall semester on a GREAT note because it’s been awesome. Sometimes we just need a little motivation to inspire us and keep us going.

We asked our HCOU staff their fav quotes that do this. Hopefully they’ll inspire you, too!

 

Brooklynn Kramer, sophomore”If a woman is sufficiently ambitious, determined, and gifted, there is practically nothing she can’t do.” – Helen Lawrenson

 

Michelle Jacobson, sophomore”Laughter is timeless. Imagination has no age. And Dreams are forever.” – Walt Disney

 

Paige Bennett, sophomore“Live the full life of the mind, exhilarated by new ideas, intoxicated by the romance of the unusual.” – Ernest Hemingway

 

Kylie Souder, sophomore“I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it’s these things I’d believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn’t all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.”​ – F. Scott Fitzgerald 

 

Emily Daffron, junior“You don’t make right decisions. You make decisions, and then you make them right.” – Unknown

 

Emily McIntyre, junior”Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past, stop planning the future, stop figuring out precisely how we feel, stop deciding exactly what we want, and just see what happens.”  – Carrie Bradshaw (Sex and the City)
