You know me, I love Disney. That’s no secret. And a major part of many Disney films are the messages and lessons they try and teach us within them. Most of these films come with quotes and I for one, love a good quote. I think quotes (not just Disney ones) can help us realise that we’re not the only one feeling how we’re feeling and finding a quote that sums up perfectly how we’re feeling at that specific time… Well, is there anything like it? And as well as the fun and the magic, Disney has some amazing, life-affirming quotes and today I want to share with you 10 of my favourites!
Life is not a spectator sport. If watchin’ is all you’re gonna do, then you’re gonna watch your life go by without ya – Laverne, The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or… Learn from it – Rafiki, The Lion King
There are those who say fate is something beyond our command. That destiny is not our own, but I know better. Our fate lives within us, you only have to be brave enough to see it – Merida, Brave
You must not let anyone define your limits because of where you come from. The only limit is your soul – Gasteau, Ratatouille
The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all – The Emporer of China, Mulan
A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference – Eeyore, Winnie the Pooh
It would be so nice if something would make sense for a change – Alice, Alice in Wonderland
A lie keeps growing and growing until it’s as plain as the nose on your face – The Blue Fairy, Pinocchio
Your identity is your most valuable possession. Protect it – Elastigirl, The Incredibles
Do not be fooled by it’s commonplace appearance. Like so many things, it is not what is outside, but what is inside that counts – Merchant, Aladdin
