My soul should dream no further, but it does, and I do
Taken from the piece Dear No One by Tosha, who has as much talent for poetry as she does with singing. You can find more of her work at Everything I Never Told You.

But they don’t stand a chance because
When I’m with you, when I’m with you
I’m standing with an army
Taken from the song Army by Ellie Goulding, from her third studio album Delirium (2015). Though not as successful in the charts as her previous efforts, the single is an affectionate tribute to best friends and the affect they have on us.You can also find another example of her songs here.
There should be no boundaries to human endeavour. We are all different. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there’s life, there is hope.
Stephen Hawking (Eddie Redmayne) in the 2015 biopic The Theory of Everything.
The Iron Giant: You die?
Hogarth Hughes: Well, yes, someday.
The Iron Giant: I die?
Hogarth Hughes: I don’t know. You’re made of metal, but you have feelings, and you think about things, and that means you have a soul. And souls don’t die.
The Iron Giant: Soul?
Hogarth Hughes: Mom says it’s something inside of all good things, and that it goes on forever and ever.
Eli Marienthal and Vin Diesel in ‘The Iron Giant’ (1999)
