I always love Forrest Gump


MOMMA ALWAYS SAID:


"Theres an awful lot you can tell 'bout a person by their shoes" --- "Where they goin' , Where they been" "I've worn lots of shoes"
"There is only so much fortune a man really needs - and the rest is for showin' off"
"Life is like a box of chocolates, Forrest. You never know what you're gonna get"



OTHER QUOTES :


[Repeated lines] "Stupid is as stupid does" "We were like peas and carrots, Jenny and I"


[Forrest's repeated phrase at the end of recollections of particularly sensitive incidents] "That's all I have to say about that"


[Forrest remembers Jenny's father] "Was some kind of a farmer. He was a very loving man - he was always kissing and touching her and her sisters"


[After hitting Jenny's boyfriend] "Sorry I had a fight in the middle of your Black Panther party"


[Forrest remembers Lt. Dan Taylor] "He was from a long great military tradition - somebody in his family had fought and DIED in every single American - war" "I guess you could say he had a lot to LIVE up to"


[Forrest on his being shot in the buttocks] "They said it was a million dollar wound. But, the army must keep that money, cause I still ain't seen a nickle of that million dollars"


[Miscelaneous] "I'm sorry for ruining your party, Lieutenant Dan. She tasted of cigarettes"
"Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was ever going somewhere, I was run-ning!!"
"Now for some reason I fit in the Army like one of them round pegs"
"They sending me to Vietnam - it's this whole other country"




(So touchy movie)
