“That’s all it is, Miles. A leap of faith.”

From: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

Who said it?: Stan LeePeter B. Parker

The story behind the quote: This week’s quote was submitted by Hassan Sarosh. Thank you for your submission!

Today’s quote comes from the 2018 animated film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The film takes place in a different “universe” and follows Miles Morales, a young pre-teen who is bitten by a genetically modified spider and gains spider-like powers. This universe’s Peter Parker/Spider-Man dies attempting to prevent the multiverse’s destruction and the cataclysm accidentally brings in different Spider-themed heroes into Miles’ universe.

The quote is can be heard twice in the film. The first time it’s said is by Peter B. Parker (voiced by Jake Johnson), a Spider-Man from a different universe from Miles Morales. He delivers the quote when, while training the youth, Miles asks when he’ll know he’s ready. The second time is during a flashback when Miles Morales, despite being told he would be in danger while the rest of the team goes after Kingpin, he still joins the fight, remembering Peter’s words.

Geek wisdom: We won’t always have a clear signal or sign when to do something. We have to set our own path, realize our strengths and weaknesses and do our best. It can be a risk but, if we don’t take that leap of faith, we will never really know if we were ready or not.

“It always fits… eventually.”

The quote comes right after Spider-man’s/Peter Parker’s death. Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) buys a Spider-Man costume in tribute to the hero. He asks the store owner, who just so happens to be Stan Lee, if he can return it if the size is wrong. This is when Stan Lee delivers the quote.

Geek wisdom: Being great isn’t always instantaneous. You generally have to work on it.

The quote is said a couple of times during the film. The first time this happens is when Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) meets and captures Peter B. Parker (voiced by Jake Johnson), a Spider-Man from a different universe. This Peter Parker distracts Miles by talking to him long enough to get free. This is when he delivers the quote.

The second time it’s said is near the climax of the film. Peter B. Parker says he’ll stay behind to stop the device as he has the item needed to deactivate it. It turns out Miles manages to pickpocket him and steal the item. This is when Miles says the quote to Peter B. Parker.

Geek wisdom: Always look at the entire picture and don’t get too distracted by the other things around us. Try to focus on the important things around you.
