This quote by Master Oogway (Randall Duk Kim) is said to Po (Jack Black) when he doubts his selection as the Dragon Warrior. Oogway reminds Po not to worry about anything but the present. It’s an inspirational message about mindfulness and taking stock of life when anxieties threaten to overwhelm. There is no way to know what tomorrow brings; the past is in the past; but the present is here, and it’s where one’s focus should be. Oogway’s case for mindfulness is a relevant and inspiring one.

When the Soothsayer reminds Po that he doesn’t have to let his difficult past determine his future, she also implies that everyone can determine who they want to be. The story is theirs to tell, not anyone else’s. It can be hard to let go of the past and plenty of people live their entire lives desperately holding on to it out of fear of forgetting it. Sometimes it’s good to forget the bad parts of the past, and not let those shape one’s future. It’s an inspirational message for anyone who is struggling to determine their own path forward.
13 If You Only Do What You Can Do, You’ll Never Be Better Than What You Are.
Shifu (Kung Fu Panda 3)
This is an inspirational quote for anyone who has given up on dreams or future successes. Shifu (Dustin Hoffman) says it to Po after Po questions him about giving Po a task that Shifu knew he would struggle with. By telling Po that he is more capable than he believes, Po realizes that his father and the pandas are also more capable than they give themselves credit for. It’s an inspiring moment that shows Shifu is never ashamed of Po for failing, he just wants to see him push himself. If he fails trying, then he’s not failing.

12 Every Step Leaves A Footprint, No Matter How Small.
Zhen (Kung Fu Panda 4)
Zhen (Awkwafina) yells this out as a warning to Po in Kung Fu Panda 4 when she’s captured. While it’s first thrown out as a threat, it comes to mean a lot more by the end of Kung Fu Panda 4. Zhen is small, both physically and how she sees herself in the world, particularly when compared to the legendary Po the Panda. By the end of Kung Fu Panda 4, however, it’s the tiny Zhen, forgotten about by everyone and disregarded, who becomes the most important. It’s something everyone should remember when they’re feeling small.
11 Nope. I Figured It out. Skidoosh.
Po (Kung Fu Panda)

Po rarely gets one of the “cool” kung fu moments he dreams about, so when he finally gets the action line at the end of Kung Fu Panda, the wait makes it all the more epic. The Wuxi Finger Hold is known by only a few martial arts masters, and even Tai Lung (Ian McShane) doesn’t know it. Po has become the ultimate student, learning from everyone around him, and becoming the Dragon Warrior as he was always intended to be. However, he still has tricks up his sleeve, some of which he managed to teach himself.

Shifu enjoys messing with Po, so in Kung Fu Panda 2, when Po visits him during his training, Shifu doesn’t miss the chance to tease his protégé. In his mystical water garden, Shifu practices channeling his inner peace and makes sure to remind Po that the panda was once his greatest source of frustration. Now, he understands the flow of the universe. It’s an inspirational message that helps Po understand how he can get past the sadness of his childhood to defeat Lord Shen (Gary Oldman), the architect of his trauma.
9 I Stayed, Because Every Time You Threw A Brick At My Head, Or Said I Smelled, It Hurt; But It Could Never Hurt More Than Every Day Of My Life Just Being Me! I Stayed Because I Thought, If Anyone Can Change Me, Can Make Me… Not Me, It Was You!
Po (Kung Fu Panda)
After Po gives up, with plenty of encouragement from Shifu, Shifu realizes his mistake and goes back to ask Po to train with him. Though Po seems lost, Shifu asks to know why he didn’t give up before, leading to this quote. It’s a quote that gives insight into the real character of Po. If he wants to be something, like a Dragon Warrior, he’s willing to do what it takes. It’s an inspirational lesson on commitment and faith, and though he wavers, Shifu recognizes Po’s strength and also realizes maybe he doesn’t need to change the panda.

8 Sometimes We Do The Wrong Things For The Right Reasons.
Mr. Ping (Kung Fu Panda 3)
In Kung Fu Panda 3, Mr. Ping (James Hong) and Li Shan (Bryan Cranston) both realize they’ve made some mistakes handling their unique relationship as Po’s fathers. Mr. Ping has some words of wisdom, absolving Li of some of the pain he holds for lying to his son. Kung Fu Panda is not a black-and-white world and even most of the villains in the franchise have a good reason for their anger. Mr. Ping knows that sometimes people can make mistakes while trying to do good, but that doesn’t make them a bad person or panda.

After the impressively staged training montage between Po and Shifu in Kung Fu Panda, Shifu finally allows Po to have a dumpling. After he succeeds in his final course, instead of eating the dumpling, Po throws it back. The meaning is clear, Po no longer needs to be driven by some outside force to be the Dragon Warrior, it was inside him all along. It’s a theme that comes back at the end of the movie and also serves as an inspirational lesson about dedication and willpower.

When Shifu comes to Oogway to complain about his choice for the Dragon Warrior, Oogway compares Po to a peach tree seed, reminding Shifu that no matter what he does, that seed will always grow into a peach tree. If Shifu wants to train Po, he will have to work with what he has. Shifu needed this lesson to help him realize that he could rage as much as he’d like about Po, but at the end of the day, he needed to utilize Po’s strengths to train him, not try and force him to be something different.
5 Sometimes The Greatest Dishes Come From The Most Unlikely Ingredients
Po (Kung Fu Panda 4)
Po has learned a lot from Mr. Ping over the years, primarily in regard to noodle soup. However, time and time again, those lessons prove crucial and reveal some of Po’s wisdom. Zhen does not believe she can be a good person or fight in the battle against The Chameleon (Viola Davis). Po reminds her that a hero can come from anywhere, an inspiring message for anyone who has felt trivialized or that their life doesn’t hold much value. It’s this belief in Zhen that inspires her to fight against The Chameleon at the end of the film.

4 There Are No Accidents.
Shifu (Kung Fu Panda)
Oogway first tells Shifu, “There are no accidents,” early in Kung Fu Panda, but Shifu waves this lesson off. It isn’t until he finds Po stealing Monkey’s (Jackie Chan) cookies that he realizes what the wise turtle really meant. There are no accidents and everything happens for a reason. That reason may not be clear right away, but if one looks hard enough, one will begin to see it. It takes time for Shifu to find out why Po wasn’t an accident, but when he does see it, he recognizes the value of Oogway’s teachings.

The information hidden in the Dragon Scroll is what every martial artist seeks in Kung Fu Panda. However, when Po finally reads it, he finds that there’s nothing there, just a shiny glossy metal. It takes his father to unlock the hidden meaning of the scroll, and Po comes to understand that there is no special “ingredient” that makes someone a hero, it’s just their belief in themself, an idea manifested in the mirror-like quality of the scroll. Po realizes that he always had the capacity to be great, as does anyone.
1 Change Doesn’t Have To Always Be A Bad Thing. Why Do You Think I Always Change The Menu At The Restaurant? Because If Things Stay The Same Forever, Sooner Or Later, They Would Lose Their Flavor.

It’s a hard lesson to understand but one of the most inspirational quotes in the Kung Fu Panda franchise. The quote acknowledges that change can be scary, but it also signals a reason to keep on living.
