It’s okay, it’s okay—someday the day will come when we’ll get out of here.Banana Yoshimoto
These are words that encourage your heart when you’ve hit rock bottom and can’t see what lies ahead.
Banana Yoshimoto, a novelist known for many works such as “Kitchen” and “Miton to Fubin,” wrote them.
This line is from her novel “Moonlight Shadow.” When you’re in complete darkness, it’s easy to feel despair, as if this situation will go on forever.
In those moments, remember these words.
You may begin to sense that there is an end to your sorrow and suffering that will come someday.
It’s just a bad day, not a bad life.Johnny Depp
When you have a day that feels incredibly unlucky, you might end up thinking in extremes, as if your whole life is bad.
But this quote tells us there’s no need to be pessimistic about your entire life just because you happened to have an unlucky day.
These are the words of Johnny Depp, who has appeared in many popular works such as the Pirates of the Caribbean series and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
People tend to feel overly damaged by bad things more than they feel joy from good things.
Still, it reminds us that it’s important to take things more lightly and think, “Today just happened to be one of those days.”
Don’t push yourself—take a rest. Recovering your energy is part of the job, too.Hiromu Arakawa
Hiromu Arakawa is a manga artist who has released numerous popular works such as Fullmetal Alchemist and Daemons of the Shadow Realm.
In Silver Spoon, the series she serialized from 2011 to 2019, the heroine Aki Mikage’s mother says the following.
Working hard is important, and it’s necessary.
However, if you push yourself too far and your performance suffers—or in the worst case, you collapse—then it’s all for nothing.
She teaches us that in order to work hard, it’s also important to take proper breaks at times and recharge.
Those who cannot cry from the bottom of their heart cannot truly laugh from the bottom of their heart either.Golda Meir
When your heart feels cold, it can seem like you show less emotion in everyday life.
These are the words of Golda Meir, who was active as a politician in Israel, conveying the importance of letting your emotions move powerfully—even negative ones—and how that movement can turn into happiness.
Focusing on the act of truly crying, which is often seen as something painful, she tells us that if we can’t let our emotions swing deeply in a negative direction, our smiles won’t grow large either.
By cherishing the emotions within us, perhaps we can live each day with more vitality.
Open your heart and try saying “Yes.” When you start affirming everything, you’ll find the answer.John Lennon
John Lennon, who also found fame as a member of the Beatles, used music to share his words with the world.
Among the words of this great musician, these speak to the importance of opening your heart and accepting things.
He tells us that what matters first is to accept without denying; by mustering that courage, we may discover something new.
The word “yes” is important too—it feels as though he repeated it to himself to keep his spirits facing forward, doesn’t it?
There is no one in this world whose life has no value. Anyone can help lighten someone else’s burden.Charles Dickens
Many people move out of their parents’ homes to live alone when they go on to higher education or start working.
When you’re feeling homesick or life isn’t going smoothly, you may suddenly feel a little down and think, “Ah, I’m all by myself…” Here’s a phrase I recommend for times like that.
It’s not a line from a pop song, but it will make you feel that people live for someone and are kept alive by someone.
These words were left by the British writer Charles Dickens, who produced many works that satirized society from the perspective of the vulnerable.

Always keep your face toward the sun, and you will never notice the shadows.Helen Keller
Here is a quote from Helen Keller, an American who, despite losing her sight and hearing, achieved great success as a writer and activist.
This quote teaches us the importance of living positively.
She shows that by turning toward the sun, we can feel hope and brightness.
When we face difficult situations, it’s important for us to focus on the positive and on what we can be grateful for.
By turning our gaze toward light and happiness, we nurture a heart filled with them.
When you’re feeling down, try looking for the bright things around you.
A moment will surely come when you, too, feel the sunlight.
