Top 10 Disney Movie Quotes of All Time
Disney movies have the ability to leave you crying or laughing and impart life lessons that remind us all to keep the magic alive in our own lives. This list tries to capture the inspirational, funniest and most memorable lines from the Disney movies. The best Disney quotes is a much-debated subject especially with the width of material available but here is the list from this writer’s perspective.
“Ohana means family, and family means no one gets left behind or forgotten.” – Lilo, Lilo & Stitch
Whoever you think of when you think of your family, it is always important to remember that these are the people you can count on. No matter how big or small, there is nothing better than family. They will be there for you no matter what life throws at you.
“I’m a damsel, I’m in distress, I can handle this. Have a nice day.” – Megara, Hercules
This line was the ultimate girl power move. Not to mention it flipped the stereotype of needing a hero to save the day. Hercules is full of great one-liners but this one definitely rises to the top as one of the greatest.
“The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of them all.” – Mulan, Mulan
Nothing like a little reminder that every challenge that comes your way just makes you stronger. Even that rough Monday when you would rather be in bed or enjoying the day at Disney, can shape you into the person you are meant to be.
“This is crazy. I finally meet my childhood hero and he’s trying to kill us. What a joke.” – Carl Fredricksen, Up
Be careful about meeting your heroes. Carl reminds us that it is better to be your own hero in life. However, most of our heroes do not actually try to kill us.
“You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” – Winnie the Pooh, Pooh’s Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin
One of the lesser-known but extremely inspirational Disney quotes. It is what we all need to be reminded of every day so we can go on crushing it in everything we do. No surprise that it comes from a sweet tearjerker like Winnie the Pooh.
“Just keep swimming” – Dory, Finding Nemo
This quote is one that has the insane ability to get stuck in a person’s head and is almost impossible to get out. Seriously, the only other thing that comes close is the Small World theme song.
“Some people are worth melting for.” – Olaf, Frozen
Take Olaf’s advice and spend a minute to appreciate the most important people in your life. Maybe even watch a Disney movie together.
“The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it.” – Rafiki, The Lion King
Sometimes we all need a little whack over the head from Rafiki. Just like Simba, we should all remember that our past is there to teach us to do better in the future. So we can avoid it or we can grow like Simba eventually decided to.
“I remember Daddy told me ‘fairytales can come true’. But you’ve got to make them happen, it all depends on you!” – Tiana, The Princess and the Frog
As the only quote on the list that came from a song but it is the perfect choice to remind us all that if we work hard we can reach our goals. Tiana learns during the movie to make sure to have some fun while working hard and you should remember that too!
“Dishonor! Dishonor on your whole family! Dishonor on you! Dishonor on your cow!” – Mushu, Mulan
This quote makes it on the list because it is arguably the funniest one-liner delivered in Disney history. Mushu is classic comedic relief and this line is one that almost anyone who experienced Disney growing up can easily quote from memory. Mulan is such a quotable movie that it was hard to narrow down just what hilarious Mushu line should make the list.
