Forrest Gump (1994) by Robert Zemeckis

I'm not a smart man... but I know what love is.

Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.

You have to do the best with what God gave you.

Mama always said, dying was a part of life.

You died on a Saturday morning. And I had you placed here under our tree.

I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze, but I, I think maybe it's both. Maybe both is happening at the same time.

Lieutenant Daniel Taylor: Have you found Jesus yet, Gump?

Forrest Gump: I didn't know I was supposed to be looking for him, sir.

Dear God, make me a bird. So I could fly far. Far far away from here.

Stupid is as stupid does.

You know it's funny what a young man recollects? 'Cause I don't remember bein' born. I don't recall what I got for my first Christmas and I don't know when I went on my first outdoor picnic. But I do remember the first time I heard the sweetest voice in the wide world.

Sometimes, I guess there just aren't enough rocks.

Oh, yes sir. Bit me right in the buttocks. They said it was a million dollar wound, but the army must keep that money 'cause I still haven't seen a nickel of that million dollars.

I'm sorry I ruined your New Year's Eve party, Lieutenant Dan. She tasted like cigarettes.

Nobody gives a hunky shit who you are, pus ball. You're not even a low-life, scum-sucking maggot.

My Mama always said you've got to put the past behind you before you can move on.

Jenny Curran: Were you scared in Vietnam?

Forrest Gump: Yes. Well, I-I don't know. Sometimes it would stop raining long enough for the stars to come out... and then it was nice. It was like just before the sun goes to bed down on the bayou. There was always a million sparkles on the water... like that mountain lake. It was so clear, Jenny, it looked like there were two skies one on top of the other. And then in the desert, when the sun comes up, I couldn't tell where heaven stopped and the earth began. It's so beautiful.

Jenny Curran: I wish I could've been there with you.

Forrest Gump: You were.

Forrest Gump: I just wanted to tell you I love you.

Forrest Gump Jr.: [smiles] I love you too, Dad.

Forrest Gump: You could come home with me, to my house in Greenbow, Jenny. You and little Forrest. I'll take care of you if you're sick.

Jenny Curran: Will you marry me, Forrest?

Forrest Gump: [long pause] Okay.

Me and Jenny goes together like peas and carrots.
