Sayings, phrases, words of wonder and motivational speeches can inspire us to do great things. Bible verses, tweets and even fortune cookies can be highlighted, shared or bookmarked to reflect on and propel forward. Disney is full of such quotes. Life lessons came to us from fuzzy animals that could talk; princesses told us to keep wishing; inanimate objects would sing about discovering ourselves; and a founder would always share his advice on chasing your dreams.
Welcome to Believe Vacations’ Weekly Post where today, our agents will reveal our favorite Disney Motivational Quotes. For this list, our agents supplied their favorite inspirational saying from a quote, song or mantra that was featured in a Disney movie or show. We’ve compiled our favorites in no particular order and hope that you can use them to get you through the rough times.
Christine Pownall – The Lyrics from “Almost There” “How Far I’ll Go” and “Try Everything”
3 of the newer animated films are The Princess and the Frog, Moana, and Zootopia. While these songs are very different in presentation, they do have the united theme of KEEP GOING! For Tiana, she had her dream of owning a restaurant and this was her way of saying nothing would stop her. For Moana, a quest to help her people kept tugging at her until she realized it was time to seek out and try to help. For the citizens of Zootopia, Gazelle’s song tells them to get, up, try again, don’t stop!
Jennifer Neal – “Just keep swimming.”
Quickly becoming on of the more popular sayings in recent Disney history, this iconic motivational speech from Dory in Finding Nemo speaks to fish (and people) of all ages. For young ones, it’s almost a cute little chant to sing around the house. For adults, it takes a little deeper meaning. Keep going. Don’t stop. She doesn’t say “if life gets you down.” She says “WHEN life gets you down.” Best now to be ready for those moments. And since you’re well prepared for them, you’ll keep swimming through the challenge!
Tiffany Bailey Bigelow – “If you can dream it, you can do it.” I also like the quote that’s typically tagged onto the end of this one – “It all started with a mouse.” Can you imagine going back in time and trying to convince people that a mouse would set the standard for entertainment and dreams to come true? Walt knew. He dreamed. He did. What dreams do you have that you’re scared you can’t do? Or worse, that people are telling you won’t work? Know it. Dream it. Do it.
