A few quotes to inspire and uplift you (part 1)

I was recently "stuck" (I volunteered) in Victoria International Airport (YYJ) for over 10 hours over 2 days welcoming new University of Victoria international students. The first day I was there, I had no phone/computer and was incredibly bored. I'm glad I brought a couple of books to read, but there's only so much reading I could do before boredom struck again.

I flipped through pages of the University of Victoria Students' Society (UVSS), which is one of the things new students are given in their goodie bag. I noticed something I thought was really cool: the top left corner of each page had some quotes made by various inspirational people. I wanted to share some of the quotes that resonated with me with you all today:
