What’s Your Favorite Zelda Quote?

The Legend of Zelda series has so many famous, classic, comedic, epic and inspirational quotes. From the comedy of Linebeck, to the inspiration of Sheik, to the philosophy of Majora’s Mask’s children on the moon, there are so many one-liners, mottos for life and just about every other variety of quote there is.

Phantom Hourglass is known for being more comedic than any other Zelda game, and with suss-lines such as “Some things in this world were meant to be pulled”, it’s no doubt. Then there’s Orca’s classic “keep thrusting” in The Wind Waker. Laughs aside, read on for my favorite Zelda quotes, and to share your own.

These would have to be some of my favorite quotes in all of Zelda:

“The rising sun will eventually set, A newborn’s life will fade. From sun to moon, moon to sun… Give peaceful rest to the living dead. Restless souls wander where they don’t belong, bring them calm with the Sun’s Song.”

“Haven’t you begun to understand? The kingdom being ruined and us left in this state… Isn’t it petty, little battles like this that have caused it? Believing in your friends and embracing that belief by forgiving failure… These feelings have vanished from our hearts.”

“I want you to live for the future. There may be nothing left for you… But despite that, you must look forward and walk a path of hope, trusting that it will sustain you when darkness comes.”

“A sword wields no strength unless the hand that holds it has courage.”

Then there is all of Sheik’s famous lines:

“The flow of time is always cruel… Its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it… A thing that doesn’t change with time is a memory of younger days…”

“It is something that grows over time… a true friendship. A feeling in the heart that becomes stronger over time… The passion of friendship will soon blossom into a righteous power and through it, you will know which way to go…”

“Time passes, people move…. Like a river’s flow, it never ends… A childish mind will turn to noble ambition… Young love will become deep affection… The clear water’s surface reflects growth…”

“This is the melody that will draw you into the infinite darkness that absorbs even time…”

And how could we ever forget some of the classics like “I AM ERROR” and “It’s Dangerous to Go Alone! Take This”. There are so many fabulous quotes, and so many more favorites of mine that I didn’t list. So what are your favorites? Let us know in the comments below.
