16 Important Friendship, Life And Love Lessons From PIXAR Movies

Life can be challenging, and next time you're going through a hard time, just remember Dory's words of wisdom: "Just keep swimming."

Because a scuba diver will catch you and put you in a tank.

Even the craziest families are important. Even if you're not a team of superheroes, they are the ones you can lean on when you need it the most.

It doesn't matter when the acquaintances in your life come and go because the true friends will stay forever.

No one understands annoying moms more than teenage girls, but in the end they are just trying to do the best they can to make you the best woman you can be.

You only understand that when you hit your mid-20s. Call your mom and apologize for being an assh*le in high school.

Sometimes a witch will give you a spell to change your mom, but don't test it out. She might turn into a bear.

Fate and destiny can only go so far. Merida taught us that it's up to you to change things — you just have to be brave enough to try.

Life really is a highway. It will take you all over the place, and sometimes you just have to sit back and enjoy the ride.

There's nothing more real than the true love that Carl and Ellie had, and it lasts forever.

You can't just shut down when your true love passes away. Life keeps going whether you're ready for it or not. It might take a friend to get you through it.

Sully and Mike Wazowski are the most unlikely of friends, but complete each other. You never know which friends are the best ones worth having if you don't give people a chance.

If you're a rat who wants to be a chef, do it. You can be whatever you want and you can't let people tell you otherwise. In fact, people putting you down should be a higher motivator to prove them wrong.

Even the littlest guys can be heroes.

We can't end up useless like the humans in Wall-E, so stop talking online and go say hello to someone to their face.

And walking would get humans out of those flying chairs, so we should probably start walking around and get that exercise going.

If there's one theme every single Pixar film accomplishes, its overarching theme teaches you that the best thing to be is yourself. Stand up for what you believe in, whether it's love or friendship or family, and make things happen.
