Inspirational Quotes and Cute Animals To Look At Because It’s Finals and Why Not?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Notre Dame chapter.

By a show of hands, how many people have finals this week? How many of you have had a near lethal amount of coffee? Lastly, how many people have felt the impending doom of exams and papers and nearly had three hundred breakdowns in the span of a week?

If you raised your hand to any of those (or to all of them, like me), you might be in the need of a nice break. Even if it is for a short while, I’ve compiled a list of inspirational quotes that can help in this time of hardship. Oh, and there’s kittens and puppies too.

You’re welcome.
