1. Thought Catalog: 25 Wise, Philosophical Quotes From Disney Movies.
Sometimes we are far too absorbed in abstract, convoluted fragments of "wisdom" from ancient generations to look closely enough at more recent figures of influence for snippets to live life by. Not that this is always a bad thing because it isn't, but there's a lot of wisdom in more modern culture if we seek it. The best example of a fairly recent inspiration I can think of is Walt Disney, who shaped a lot of our childhoods and taught us the building blocks of loyalty, love and life. I was so excited to have stumbled across this Thought Catalog article, as it combines two of my favorite things: quotes and Disney movies! Check the article out here.
