{{quote|''[[The Wizard of Oz (film)|The Wizard of Oz]]'' is a true story?|''[[The Wizard of Oz (film)|The Wizard of Oz]]'' is the '''truest''' story of them all.}}
* From the [[Fridge Brilliance]] page
{{quote| What's the point in living life to the fullest when life has so many ways to turn so very wrong? What's the point in commending the few decent folks when most people seem to be such selfish assholes? Why bother focusing on the nice stuff people are capable of when they're capable of doing such horrible stuff too? Then I realized that that's what makes those things so special. Being nice and happy where everything is all great and dandy? Okay. Finding the strength to be nice and happy despite all the surrounding horribleness? Simply amazing.}}
** Another one from the Literature section
{{quote| In Guards! Guards!, it is stated that L space connects all universes. Usually when Terry says that, it refers to something that happens in ours as well. I then thought of the possibility of traveling to Discworld through my local library. Only several weeks later did I realize that's exactly what I was doing.}}
* [[Anvils That Needed to Be Dropped]].
* There are quite a few good tropers who can describe examples on the [[Tear Jerker]] or [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]] pages so sweetly.
** Description of the USS Arizona - USS Missouri Memorial in Pearl Harbor
{{quote| Oil still leaks from the ''Arizona's'' hull even after sixty years, as though the ship is still crying for the hundreds of sailors who died aboard her. Meanwhile the ''Missouri'' is standing watch over the ''Arizona's'' grave, as though telling the fallen sailors: "Rest easy. We ''won''."}}
** On the British Royal Guards playing ''Star Spangled Banner'' in Buckingham Palace after 9/11
{{quote| If nations are people and anthems are their lullabies, then here was Mother England singing to her grieving American child. }}
*** This [[Unknown Troper]], who wrote both of the entries above, will forever have his heart warmed by the appreciation shown on this page. Thank you. You all made the effort worth it.
** Fred Rogers is the major reason to research immortality. Let our descendants from the 24th and one half Century watch Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, and they will feel the same thing.
** About the Unknown Child from the ''Titanic'', where the body of a boy was recovered and scientists in the early 2000s were able to identify him.
{{quote| He lived for but a few months. He waited for over ninety years. But thanks to the love of strangers one boy finally has a name. }}
* Does anyone else find the picture and caption on [[Earn Your Happy Ending]] utterly heartwarming? Quoth the troper:
{{quote| ''If [[The Quest]] to find your lost love involves getting the wind to carry you over the sea - that's what it takes.''}}
* The [[Real Life]] section for [[You Are Not Alone]] makes me love every single one of you. Yes, that includes '''YOU.'''
** Thank you! This troper has been having a really bad day, and reading that made her so happy that she actually cried. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Line 42:
** BTW, all 11 of the [[Heartwarming Moments]] troper tale pages are now on the new wiki. Why not go check them out if you're having a bad day?
* From [[You Are Better Than You Think You Are]] (Real Life):
{{quote|You're better than you think you are. Keep your chin up, and your back straight!<br />
But I have scoliosis. I can't keep my back straight.|Then let your words stand so straight that others always remember your back as being straight regardless of the physical facts.}}
* The ending of [[Driven to Suicide]].
