DIVERGENT Quotes


As far as I remember, I had never watched any movie twice in the cinema. But I just did it for Divergent! It’s not merely because I like everything about the movie, but also because working for hours for my presentation got me so bored today.  Oh I am  defintely not an Erudite, aren’t I?

So as shown in the movie that in the future we’ll live in groups/factions. Each faction values one virtue above everything else. The first faction, Dauntless, think bravery is keen. The second faction, Erudite, loves knowledge. The third faction, Abnegation, is pro-self-sacrifice. The fourth faction, Amity, values friendship. The fifth faction, Candor, is into honesty. 

I took a aptitude quiz that I happened to find on Facebook about the faction I belong in the movie. And see, I am DIVERGENT. My result depicts high scores for 3 factions: Abnegation, Amity, and Erudite. That aslo explains that my character falls into slefless, kind, and intelligent. To check yours, you may click here:
  


Like my previous post about any movie previously, here I share some quotes from the movie that in my conviction is really strong and into our daily life:

“We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.”


“Sometimes crying or laughing are the only options left, and laughing feels better right now.”

“A brave man acknowledges the strength of others.”

“Fear doesn't shut you down; it wakes you up” 

“It must require bravery to be honest all the time” 

“Sometimes, the best way to help someone is just to be near them”

“I don't want to be just one thing. I can't be. I want to be brave, and I want to be selfless, intelligent, and honest and kind”

“The future belongs to those who know where they belong”

“Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it”

“We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another”

“Everyone’s afraid of something”

“Your mind works in a million different ways”

“We’re like the factionless now. We’ve left everything behind, but we found ourselves and each other”


Quotes from The Lego Movie



I have never been a buff of animated movie. I always reject to watch if any offer to watch with friends. But not for this one, The Lego Movie. Since vast positive feedback is heard everywhere about this movie, I succumbed to the temptation and watched the movie.



Apart from the funny characters in the movie, The Lego Movie presented so many inspiring quotes that I was enjoying when I sat in the cinema. This 3D computer animated story is more than an ordinary and rules-following Emmet – a master builder who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the one who will save the world. The movie is filled with a plethora of metaphors that can be applied to our life endeavor.

These are some inspiring quotes which are worth to read: 

#1 The only thing anyone needs to be special is to believe that they’re special (Vitruvius)


#2 All of you have the ability to be a ground breaker (WyldStyle)


#3 We didn’t get a trophy for just showing up


#4 You don’t have to be the bad guy.  You are the most talented, most interesting, most special guy in the universe.  You are the Special.  And so am I.


#5 The prophecy’s made up.  But it’s also true.  You can still change everything (Vitruvius)


#6 An idea so dumb and pointless that no one would ever think it could possibly be useful (Vitruvius)


#7 Don’t worry about what the others are doing.  You must embrace what is special about you (Vitruvius)


#8 We’re about to crash into the sun! Yeah, but it’ll look really cool (Emmett & Batman) 


#9 If the man upstairs chose him to be the special, there must be a reason 
  

Based on my observation, Vitruvius is the most rousing character in the movie, so prudent. He mentions many good quotes that are very interesting and positive. However, above all, my lesson learned from the movie is believing ourselves that we are special. Sometimes we will be drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to solve a problem unpreparedly. Yet as long as we have faith that we are special, our team is special, and everything is awesome as the song of The Lego Movie.
