Probably
one of the most epic animated movies made by Disney, The Lion King was released
in 1994 and was the first Disney animated feature to be an original story.
The
movie tells the story of Simba, a lion cub who is to succeed his father,
Mufasa, as King of the Pride Lands. After the killing of his father by his
paternal uncle, the young lion has to undergo a lot of challenges in the search
for his destiny as king and in understanding the ’Great Circle of Life’, which
connects all living things.
The
best thing about animated movies is that you can enjoy them no matter how old
you are. The difference is that, as a child, you love the story and that
fantasy world as it is presented; When you get older, you begin to understand
that the fantasy world is a reflection of the one you live in.
Above
all, The Lion King teaches us that we can overcome any challenge life throws
our way, if we don’t let worries overwhelm us. Another valuable lesson offered
by the movie, is that power can be blinding.
Here are 22 The Lion King quotes filled with powerful life lessons:
Believe in yourself and there will come a day when others will have no choice but to believe with you.

Look beyond what you see.
Rafiki
It’s times like this my buddy Timon here says: you got to put your behind in your past.
Pumba
There’s more to being a king than getting your way all the time.
Mufasa
Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it.
Rafiki
I laugh in the face of danger.
Simba
When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. And so, we are all connected in the great Circle of Life…
Mufasa
Truth? But, truth is in the eye of the beholder.
Scar
Remember who you are.
Mufasa
They can have the word. We’ll create our own.

Hakuna Matata.
