15 Inspiring 'Cobra Kai' Quotes to Bring Out Your Inner Karate Kid
“Never mind your past mistakes; don’t let them determine your future.”
Cobra Kai fans have so many reasons to love Netflix's spinoff of The Karate Kid. Between the reintroduction of some of The Karate Kid's most legendary characters (that includes heroes and villains), the fun filming locations, and the action-packed plot—the series is a huge hit for obvious reasons. And let's not forget about Cobra Kai's many inspiring quotes.
The show has given us so many iconic lines throughout its five-year run. Somehow, the Cobra Kai characters always seem to know exactly what to say, even during the most intense moments. Whether it's a heated conversation between frenemies Johnny (William Zabka) and Danny (Ralph Macchio), or some funny banter between Miguel (Xolo Maridueña) and Robby, you know it's going to be good. And the best part is we have five seasons' worth of quotes—and counting!
As we prepare for Cobra Kai season 6 (and undoubtably some more great quotes!), we thought it would be a good idea to lay out some of the best lines from every season so far. Read on for the most unforgettable Cobra Kai quotes, and let us know in the comments section which ones are your favorites!
