Mufasa: You deliberately disobeyed me. Young Simba: I know. Mufasa: You could have been killed. And what's worse, you put Nala in danger. Do you understand what's at stake? You jeopardized the future of our pride. Young Simba: [holding back tears] I just wanted to show you I could do it. That I…
Everything the light touches...is our kingdom. But a king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun. One day, the sun will set on my time here, and will rise with you as the new king.
Believe in yourself and there will come a day when others will have no choice but to believe with you.
As king I was proud of one thing, you as my son. That alone. No, that is forever.
Young Simba: Wait, Dad, let me come, I can help. Mufasa: No son, you must stay with the other cubs.
You must take your place...in the circle of life.
Look at the stars, the great kings look down on us from those stars...and so will I.
Simba, you must remember who you are: the one true king.
Everything you see—exists together in a delicate balance. While others search for what they can take, a true king searches for what he can give.
Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope.
Everything the light touches is our kingdom. A king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun. One day, Simba, the sun will set on my time here, and will rise with you as the new king.
There's more to being a king than getting your way all the time.
Sarabi: Your son's awake. Mufasa: Before sunrise, he's your son.
Whenever you feel alone, just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you. And so will I.
You have forgotten who you are and so have forgotten me. Look inside yourself Simba. You are more than what you have become. You must take your place in the Circle of life.
Look inside yourself Simba. You are more than what you have become.
Look at the stars. The great kings of the past look down on us from those stars. Whenever you feel alone, just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you. And so will I.
You have forgotten who you are and so have forgotten me. Look inside yourself Simba. You are more than what you have become.
When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. And so we are all connected in the great Circle of Life.
