"I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it," a statement once said by Marilyn Monroe. Agreed or not, celebrity quotes like this one, live on way after the person is gone. Even "Is this chicken, what I have, or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it says 'Chicken by the Sea'" will always resonate in our minds.

Luckily in 2013 we got some pretty inspiring celebrities quotes from our favorite stars. Sandra Bullock once told People magazine, "Life is a series of disastrous moments. In between those moments, that's when you savor, savor, savor." When defending her cause against America's perception of "perfection" Jennifer Lawrence also told People magazine, "Girls see enough of this body that we can't imitate, that we'll never be able to obtain, these unrealistic expectations ... it's better to look strong and healthy".

Selena Gomez is one of the few Hollywood stars who doesn't mind being called a role model, being a lady is just who she is. Gomez once told Teen Vogue, "I've tried it, and I've never been that girl. I'm always going to be the girl you want to take home to your parents, not for the night". And one of the most inspiring quotes of this year comes from a survivor herself, Robin Roberts. "Be patient and persistent. Life is not so much what you accomplish as what you overcome".

Who doesn't love Justin Timberlake and, most of all, admire the person he is. He says "Be Passionate. Be Dedicated. Be Tenacious. Be Uncompromising. Be Pissed. Be Happy. Be sad." A simple way of describing being a human being. Here's an interesting quote to really get you thinking; "Selfish has always gotten a bad rap. You should do it for you." -- Matthew McConaughey.

Live your life and be happy. That sums up the year 2013.
