Inspiration

For sure there are many movies in the history that has touched your soul and left an artistic fingerprint in your heart. You remember these unique masterpieces that you kept frozen in your memories, untouched from the time, while there are others which disappear from your memory like footsteps on the sand, washed from the waves. But now I will pay attention on the first ones. 

There are these certain phrases from these masterpieces which imprinted themselves in my mind and which resonate with my own vision and understanding about the world. The stories, quotes and ideas represented in these movies are universal for all of us and all the different situations in life. There the people can find their own selves and experiences and to compare their story with the one on screen and see the reactions of the characters. At the beginning I was thinking that the list will have only ten quotations, then they increased to fifteen and at the end I chose the number twenty-five because I really didn't want to reduce to minimum these amazing words which inspired me. Here you will find my favourite movie quotes and some of them represent very simple epigrams about life. Their simplicity grabbed me exactly because they represent a pure and honest vision about the world. We are are human beings after all and we share similar feelings, disappointments and joys. 

Some of the other quotes you are going to read touched me with their deep impact which means that it will make you search in the closet of your consciousness and understand what is the real meaning that the script-writer implemented. 

But it does not matter if they are long or short, complicated and deep or very simple, these truths of life coming to us from the big screen, definitely left a print in my mind. So, see, check them and think:
