Hakuna matata; so many wonderful phrases! We recently asked you, mighty Disney fans, which quotes from The Lion King resonate the most with you. You commented, we listened. Take a gander:
"It's times like this my buddy Timon here says: you got to put your behind in your past." -Pumbaa
It’s important to always look where you’re headed rather than where you were!
"Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it." -Rafiki
Even Rafiki knows that every day is a lesson in itself. Enjoy the ride!
"I laugh in the face of danger." -Simba
Don’t let danger control you. Embrace a challenge—you never know where it will take you. Just don’t go around visiting elephant graveyards, okay?
"But, Zazu, you told me they are nothing but slobbery, mangy stupid poachers." -Simba
Ouch. Simba sure knows how to throw some shade.
"Remember who you are." -Mufasa
It’s easy to forget at times, but nothing is more important.
"Being brave doesn't mean you go looking for trouble." -Mufasa
What it does mean is that you’re mature enough to understand your fears and overcome them.
"There's one in every family, sire. Two in mine, actually. And they always manage to ruin special occasions." -Zazu
Because … ya know. Uncles.
"Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope." -Mufasa
Otherwise known as embracing the great circle of life.
"What's a motto?" "Nothing, what's the motto with you?" -Simba and Timon
Classic Timon.
