->''There’s too many men, too many people\\
Making too many problems\\
And not much love to go ‘round\\
Can’t you see this is a land of confusion?\\
This is the world we live in! (Oh-oh!)\\
And these are the hands we’re given! (Woah-oh!)\\
[[DareToBeBadass Use them, and let’s start trying!]] (Oh-oh!)\\
To make it a place worth living in!''

->''"[Adam] Pearson talks at length about [[Creator/JonathanGlazer [Jonathan] Glazer]]'s generosity and enduring friendship ("I've been to his house for a barbecue"), painting a picture of a man who is affable and friendly...and who just happens to make deeply disquieting cinema about monsters and madness. That said, his films aren't entirely cold or cynical, either, despite their rich sense of dislocation. Glazer doesn't seem to be an optimist -- he's too smart for that -- but all of his movies do feel tinged with hope. That love can prevail over violence. That someone isn't necessarily gone when they die. That the coldest of creatures can be won over by our art and our compassion.''

->''And while Film/TheZoneOfInterest is set during [[UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust a horrifying real-world atrocity]] -- and Mica Levi's electronic score drones and boils hellishly over the top of it -- one of the most enduring images is of a Polish teenager covertly delivering apples to the camp at nighttime. We follow her under thermal imaging cameras, lending her the appearance of a nocturnal animal we're not meant to see. It's a reminder that for all of Glazer's chilly auteurism, he is fundamentally compelled by humanity, desire, and the pursuit of love."''

'''Kalin:''' Still, [[AllLovingHero Yusei]] tried to save you. He still wants to save you to this day. But I'm not Yusei. I can't save you. I'm not the type of person who gives people hope. However... I'm willing to face you. And all of your baggage. Even someone like me can help Yusei a little. \\
'''Z-one:''' You're going to sacrifice yourself for Yusei? \\
'''Kalin:''' How is it a sacrifice when I'm going to win? Let's see if both of us can find it in our hearts to keep on living!

->'''Frodo:''' [[ItSucksToBeTheChosenOne I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.]]
->'''Gandalf:''' So do all who live to see such times; but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.
-->-- ''Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheFellowshipOfTheRing''

->'''Frodo:''' I can't do this, Sam.
->'''Sam:''' I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo; the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end... because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was, when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you, that meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
->'''Frodo:''' What are we holding on to, Sam?
->'''Sam:''' That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for.

Ambiguous Disorder is not a trope anymore, but a redirect to a YMMV entry.


->''I get it. [[AmbiguousDisorder This]] won't stop until I die. But when I die, I want it to hurt. When my friends leave, when I have to let go, [[DyingTown when this entire town is wiped off the map]], I want it to hurt. Bad. I want to lose. I want to get beaten up. I want to hold on until I'm thrown off and everything ends. And you know what? Until that happens, I want to hope again. And I want it to hurt. Because that means it meant something. [[TheAntiNihilist It means I am something, at least]] ...pretty amazing to be something, at least...''
