Knowing this will surely save your heart... Short quotes to remember when times are tough (31–40)
No one is born with a strong heart.Ken Watanabe
Here is a quote by Ken Watanabe, an actor active on the international stage.
Famous people—whether entertainers or athletes—weren’t strong from the start.
They went through periods of setbacks and anxiety, and strengthened their minds through effort and experience.
When you feel troubled or pressured in everyday life, try to remember these words.
You may feel that you, too, can work to fortify your own heart.
Mental strength is something anyone can develop, and we should move forward believing we possess that power.
The only people who never make mistakes are those who do nothing.Theodore Roosevelt
Roosevelt, who consistently ranks among the top in popularity polls of U.S.
presidents throughout history, was a figure so charismatic that his name invariably appears in any book on leadership.
We learned about the New Deal in school history classes—an initiative that was groundbreaking for its time.
Here are some of his bold words that might even be called headlong and fearless.
Hearing them gives you courage and confidence, reassuring you that a few mistakes are okay.
If Roosevelt were alive today, how would he change this chaotic world? I’m utterly fascinated to imagine it!
While there is life, there is hope.Miguel de Cervantes
Let me share a famous quote by the renowned Spanish writer Miguel de Cervantes.
In everyday life, everyone experiences failure at times.
When that happens, try to remember these words.
They remind us of the importance of holding on to hope even in the hardest times.
By overcoming failure and trying again, you may find a chance to grow.
New challenges can brighten your future.
No matter the situation, let’s find hope and keep moving forward without stopping.
It’s sheer folly to force yourself to fit into an uncomfortable environment.Kazlaser
This saying is a striking quote that incisively addresses a struggle many people face.
We tend to conform to others’ expectations and values, but that only adds to our mental and physical burden and forces us to suppress our true selves.
This saying encourages us to let go of the assumption that “the environment can’t be changed,” and teaches the importance of having the courage to choose places and relationships that suit us.
Rather than treating forced adaptation as a virtue, adopting a perspective that reassesses our environment is the first step to living comfortably in modern society.
Precisely because it is so candid, this maxim has the power to push many people forward.
Being alive itself is, by nature, happiness.Kazlaser
In this age overflowing with information on social media, seeing someone else’s seemingly fun life can make you feel like you have nothing, or leave you discouraged by comparison.
But if you think about it, simply getting through today safely, or enjoying a good meal—those small joys and learnings, accumulated day by day, are valuable in their own right.
What matters is not comparing yourself to others, but paying attention to what kind of day you had today, what you felt, and what you did.
By doing so, your heart will gradually become calmer, and you’ll be able to appreciate the very fact of being alive and notice the small happinesses in your life.

Humans will end up happy anyway.Kazlaser
There are movies that don’t end with a happy ending, right? How many can you name? I dislike stories that don’t end happily—I simply won’t read, watch, or listen to them.
Depending on how you take it, I think Kazlaser’s words here can sound quite cruel, because there are people who, no matter what, can’t feel happy.
But try prefacing it with “Even so,” and then read the line: “Humans are bound to end up happy anyway.” Doesn’t it even bring Kaz’s smile to mind? It’s something I want you to remember when you feel like you’re about to lose heart.
There’s no such thing as a person who’s liked by everyone in this world. After all, there will always be people who dislike those who are liked by everyone.Keiko Hanamori
These words convey a truth that applies to society as a whole and sharply capture the realities of human relationships.
People naturally seek recognition from others, but it is impossible to be liked by everyone, and it is only natural that some will feel jealousy or resentment toward someone loved by all.
By accepting this harsh reality, Keiko Hanamori shows that we can live without being swayed by others’ evaluations.
Rather than striving for perfection, we should value those who support us and emphasize the importance of being ourselves.
It is a quote that lightens life in a society where human relationships can be difficult.
