In November of 2019, the Walt Disney Company unveiled its very own streaming service — Disney+. Suddenly, everyone was talking about the new shows and movies that premiered on it. But I was thrilled to rewatch all my childhood favorites — even the ones I had forgotten about. Months have passed, but I’m still speaking almost exclusively in Disney movie quotes!

Sadly, not everyone has the time and patience to go on such a long stroll down memory lane. Still, you can get a similar thrill by simply reading through some of the most memorable lines from Disney movies!
