Favourite Inspirational Quotes?

Postby KyletheCartoonist » Tue Feb 18, 2014 7:37 pm

What are some favourite inspirational quotes you guys have? All forum rules apply, however your quote must be inspirational. Funny or witty quotes are not accepted.

My all-time favourite inspirational quote comes from Jurassic Park:
"You've spent so much time thinking of what you can do, you didn't stop to think about it you should do it." -Ian Malcom

Some of my other favourites are:
"Everything that is or was, began with a dream." -Lavagirl
"The truth is you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guaranteed." -Eminem
"Don't believe everything happiness says." -Hedley
"Don't break; realign." -Carly Rae Jepsen
Not dead, just busy. :)

My favorite quote is from the spongebob sweatpants movie. It goes "I did what they said a kid couldn't do. I made it to shell city, I beat the Cyclops, I rode the hasslehoff......."

I miss the old spongebob days.

^ Agreed.

For me? The Bad Guy Affirmation. "I am bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be, than me."
And a Vanellope quote: "I'm already a real racer. And I'm gonna win."

Other quotes:
"Fall seven times- get up eight."
"Be happy, it drives people crazy."
"We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey."
"The reward for confirming is that everyone likes you but yourself."
"Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy."

Sadly, I don't know the sources for any of these. I just have a lot of quotes saved to my notepad.

I have more funny quotes, though:
"For me, whenever someone shows interest in me romantically I become incredibly nauseated and I have actually thrown up on two people. whoops."-coloradogal, AVEN Forum
^ is by far the best of them. :lol:

Edit: Oh wow, how could I forget this? This one is one of my favourite inspirational quotes of all. This is from the cover of the soundtrack of Sonic CD- and combined with the soundtrack Sonic Boom I think it's especially strong.

"To live a life of power, you must have faith that what you believe is right, even if others tell you you're wrong.
The first thing you must do to live a life of power is to find courage. You must be ready to reach beyond the boundaries of Time itself.
And to do that, all you need is the will to take that first step--
"

Here's a great motivational one for when you're having bad days, too:

"Life is good, just not today."

And if you say "just not right now" it can really help get you through stuff when you're just tired and want to throw the towel in, but can't. Sometimes I have great days which just have a really bad moment or two or I have some big chore I want to procrastinate on. Then I try thinking of this quote and it usually motivates me enough to get keep going. I only discovered it a couple of weeks ago but this quote has helped me a lot.

I also have to share this tumblr blog which is where I got most of the quotes I posted here. It's wonderful.

^I said the quotes are supposed to be inspirational, not funny or witty. I'll let it go, since you're fairly new, but next time be a bit more cautious of what you post where, alright friend?

Dunno if inspirational other media is also allowed here, but I just found the JP/EU version of the Sonic CD ending theme. It's called Cosmic Eternity. I've never actually heard it before now, but it does seem fairly inspirational. (Sonic Boom is still better though IMO)

These lines from You Can Do Anything(my least favourite of the songs I've linked :|). I think this is the affirmation I've used the most by far, recently.

Take a little chance, slip on through!
Y'gotta survive no matter what you do!
You gotta do it for you!


I actually wanted to put that one in my signature before but it wouldn't fit. :T
