11 Inspirational Breast Cancer Quotes

October 16, 2012 by Molly Mattison
One step at a Time

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’ve put together breast cancer quotes to inspire, give hope and push forward those battling the disease. Approximately 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will develop invasive breast cancer during their lifetime, according to www.breastcancer.org. The Chamberlain College of Nursing community proudly participates in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research.

Breast Cancer Quotes - “Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow.” – Mary Anne Radmacher
breast cancer quotes “If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them.  When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope?  We have two options, medically and emotionally:  give up, or fight like hell.”  – Lance Armstrong
breast cancer quotes “The goal is to live a full, productive life even with all that ambiguity. No matter what happens, whether the cancer never flares up again or whether you die, the important thing is that the days that you have had you will have lived.” – Gilda Radner
breast cancer quotes “Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.” – Helen Keller
breast cancer quotes “Yesterday I dared to struggle. Today I dare to win.” – Bernadette Devlin
breast cancer quotes “I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!” — Dr. Seuss
breast cancer quotes “Breast cancer changes you, and the change can be beautiful.” – Jane Cook, breast cancer survivor
breast cancer quotes “You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
breast cancer quotes “When life kicks you, let it kick you forward.” – Kay Yow
breast cancer quotes “Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”  – Winston Churchill
breast cancer quotes “Having had cancer, one important thing to know is you’re still the same person at the end. You’re stripped down to near zero. But most people come out the other end feeling more like themselves than ever before.” – Kylie Minogue
