Inspirational phrases from movies


I came across an inspirational video which had a collection of inspirational scenes and as I watched, I thought to myself, there are people like me, who prefer to read and who can only read but lack access to this incredible content for reading. So I took it upon myself to continue the good work that this person started by typing out some of the inspirational phrases that I saw.  And share them with you so that you too can be inspired. 


Movie: Coach Carter

Our deepest fear

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. 

Our deepest fear is that we our powerful beyond measure. 

It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. 

You playing small does not serve the world, there is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. 

We were all meant to shine as children do. 

It’s not just in some of us it’s in everyone. 

And as we let our light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same as we are liberated from our own fear. 

Our presence automatically liberates others.


Movie: Evan Almighty

Scene: acts of random kindness

You want to change the world, one act of random kindness at the time.




Movie: Rocky Balboa

Scene: How winning is done

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 you hard as life but it ain’t how hard you are 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. 

If you know what you are worth then, go out and take what you are worth but you got to take the hits and stop pointing fingers saying you are not where you are because of him or her or anybody. 

Cowards do that and that’s not you. 

You are better than that.   


Movie: The Peaceful Warrior

Scene: life changing

It’s not about perfection or victory or invulnerability. It’s about absolute vulnerability. That’s the only true courage.


Movie: The pursuit of happiness

Scene: speech to son

Don’t ever let somebody tell you can’t do something...

You got a dream... you gotta protect it. 

People can’t do something themselves, they want to tell you, you can’t do it. 

If you want something, go get it, Period


Movie: God’s not Dead

Scene: Dementia

Sometimes the Devil allows people to live a life free of trouble because he doesn’t want them turning to God. 

Sin is like a jail cell accepted so nice and comfy and there doesn’t seem to be any need to leave. 

The door is wide open until one day time runs out and the cell door slams shots and suddenly, it’s too late.


Thank you for reading.
