Inspirational Quotes

[Amy]

Does anyone have any favorite inspirational quotes they would like to share? A friend of mine has a niece that has to return to her home country to finish getting her paperwork in order to live in America legally. Her family brought her when she was a child, but now that she is an adult, she is going through a lengthy process to start becoming an American citizen. She might need to be out of the states for at least three months and has to leave her family, including her three children, behind. Her family is throwing a surprise going away party this weekend, an early Thanksgiving meal since she won't be here to celebrate the holiday, and she loves all the American foods served for Thanksgiving. They're sending cards and letters with her that she can open while she is away and missing her family. F1gment thought it would be nice to include a whole bunch of inspirational thoughts on little slips of paper along with the letters. Lorena's English is much better than it was when we first met her about 9 years ago, but her first language is Spanish, so if anyone knows Spanish quotes, that would be helpful too!
Thanks in advance if anyone wants to help me out. I'll have to have them by Saturday morning in order to type them out. Nothing like waiting 'til the last minute I know But we only found out about the letters yesterday.

hmm I'm really only good with disney quotes. Hope some of these help you out. I'll double check my disney quotes book later tonight and see if I can pull up more.

Lion King: Hakuna Mata. It means no worries
Pinocchio:"Remember: Always let your conscience be your guide"
Blue Fairy: "Remember, we must always believe in our wishes, for they are the magic in the world. Now, let's all put our hearts together, and make a wish come true."
Then there is always the "We go on" portion of Illuminations.

Thanks Len. A lot of my quotes seem to be Disney-fied too ~ go figure

How about:

"Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead; nor doth he sleep!
The Wrong shall fail,
The Right prevail,
With peace on earth, goodwill to men!”

And yes, it's Disney related too. I'll leave it to you to guess (if MmeLeota is around anywhere, I'll bet that she would guess it...)

Just something my Mom used to say. "And this to shall pass, you've got to have faith"

That's from a Christmas song..I think.

I like both of those ~ thanks guys!
Yes, that is definitely a Christmas song ~ not entirely sure how it relates to Disney though. Pretty sure it is played there during the holidays, maybe sung during the Candlelight Processional, included in the holiday version of Illuminations? MmeLeota ~ where are you?? We neeeeeeeed you

Perhaps, but it's actually quoted in a Disney film too.
