Sometimes words (either a speech, quotes, a passage in a book, a movie scene) can make a big difference. These can help us find a quick dose of inspiration when we need it the most, when we´re either in a tough phase or when we don’t have anyone to turn to for comforting words of advice.
Therefore, from movies or books, we are often left with an impression that we won´t soon forget and that we hold on for quite a while. Yet, it is primarily the characters that convey this impression through a speech, a scene, or the way they stood up relentlessly for something that mattered. Here are some inspirational quotes from the wisest characters to trigger your self-awareness and inspiration to keep up the spirits.
“Whoever Comes, Whoever It Is…I’ll Kill Them. I’ll Kill Them All.”
-John Wick
“We all end up dead, it’s just a question of how and why.”
-William Wallace, Braveheart
“Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”

“And maybe there’s no peace in this world, for us or for anyone else, I don’t know. But I do know that, as long as we live, we must remain true to ourselves.”
– Spartacus
“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done!”
― Rocky Balboa
“A warrior does not give up what he loves, he finds the love in what he does”

tomorrow is a mystery,
and today is a gift…
that’s why they call it present”
