Super Relatable Quotes from Hercules

October 10, 2013
October 10, 2013

At first glance, the characters from Hercules don't seem that relatable—they are immortal gods, goddesses, and half-goat men after all—but trust, our favorite Hercules characters are actually just like us. Check it out:

“Hey, you need an extra guy?” –Hercules

Hercules from the animated movie "Hercules"

Hercules just wants to have friends and hang out with the other kids. It’s hard being a teenager and even harder when you’re ostracized for being different.

♫ I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong. ♫ –Hercules

Hercules singing in the animated movie "Hercules"

Tears.

“But if you found me, then where did I come from? Why was I left here?” –Hercules

Hercules sitting next to a fire with his family in the animated film "Hercules"

Everybody wants to know where they came from. Some people do genealogy, Hercules talked to a personified statue of his dad.

“I won’t let you down, father!” –Hercules

Hercules with his fist raised in the animated movie "Hercules"

We are all about making our parents proud.

“Dreams are for rookies.” –Phil

We totally hear you, Phil. Sometimes dreams can seem impossible.

“I’m a damsel, I’m in distress, I can handle this. Have a nice day.” –Megara

Megara from the animated movie "Hercules"

Megara can handle it, and we can totally relate. We know what it’s like to want to prove that we can handle things. We CAN, okay?

“How am I supposed to prove myself a hero if nobody will give me a chance?” –Hercules

Hercules and Phil in the animated movie "Hercules"

We all just need a chance, and Hercules is waiting for his.

“I didn’t know that playing hooky could be so much fun.” –Hercules

Megara and Hercules in "Hercules"

We are totally not supporting playing hooky, kids. Stay in school. (But in reality, we understand that allure of the hooky.)

“People do crazy things… when they’re in love.” –Megara

Megara from the animated movie "Hercules"

MEG, PLEASE DON’T GO! We mean… Meg is so self sacrificing and brave and we can absolutely relate to doing crazy things because of love. (She also gives great advice.)

“We were so close! So close, we tripped at the finish line.” –Hades

Hades from the animated movie "Hercules"

Even Hades can be a relatable character. No matter how devious his plan was, it’s frustrating to have your hard work be for nothing.

“For a true hero isn’t measured by the size of his strength, but by the strength of his heart.” –Zeus

Zues with his arm around Hercules in the animated movie "Hercules"

Zeus is so wise.
