- "Sweet Princess... If through this wicked witch's trick, a spindle should your finger prick, a ray of hope there may be in this, the gift I give to thee. Not in death, but just in sleep, this fateful prophecy will keep. And from this slumber you shall wake, when true love's kiss, the spell shall break."
- ― Merryweather (Disney's Sleeping Beauty)
- "True Love's Kiss. Works every time."
- ― Evie (Disney's Descendants)
- "That’s the thing about True Love, It can slip through your fingers. It’s the most powerful magic in the world, The only magic powerful enough to break any curse, It must be protected at all costs!"

In rare cases, True Love's kiss neither has to be on the lips or between lovers (like between a parent and child).
