One of my favorite authors once said that Fantasy is really reality placed in another form.  Instead of wars with nuclear weapons, there are wars with powerful magics.  Instead of guns and tanks, there is a dragon.  If that is true, then we can learn a lot about life just by reading Fantasy.  Here are a bunch of my favorite fantasy quotes from books, anime, or wherever that I've acquired over the years.  Don't be surprised to find one or more of these in my posted stories.  Maybe you can be inspired by them too.  And remember, Fantasy is more real than you think.
