That day, for no particular reason,
I decided to go for a little run.
So I ran to the First Blood.
And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the Second Blood.
And that's what I did. For no particular reason I just kept on going.
My name's Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump.
Run, Forrest! Run!
My momma said "You have to do the best with what God gave you".
I got legs and a pair of shoes. Mama says they was magic shoes.
They could take me anywhere.
My momma always said, "Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're
gonna get."
Do you want a chocolate?
Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Hey, Indian woman! Are you my mom?
And who are you to teach me? Are you my dad?
By the way, Momma, where is my dad? On vacation?
What is vacation?
Vacation's when you go somewhere... and you never come back.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Run, Forrest! Run!
Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them.
Do you ever dream, Forrest, about who you're gonna be?
Who I'm gonna be? Aren't-aren't I going to be me?
Run, Forrest! Run!
Congratulations, how do you feel? I gotta pee.
Don't look at me, mom, like that!
Mama always said, dying was a part of life.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Run, Forrest! Run!
Have you found Jesus yet, Gump? I didn't know I was supposed to be looking
for him, sir.
I got him, sir.
Have you ever been with a girl, Forrest? [nervously] I sit next to them in my Home
Economics class all the time.
Gump! What's your sole purpose in this army? To do whatever you tell me, drill sergeant!
God damn it, Gump! You're a god damn genius! You must have a *** I.Q. of 160.
You are *** gifted, Private Gump.
What's my destiny, Mama? You're gonna have to figure that out for yourself.
Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them.
Do you want a chocolate now?
Mama, don't look at me like that...
Stupid is as stupid does.
Listen, Forrest, you promise me something, OK?
Just if you're ever in trouble, don't be brave. You just run, OK?
Just run away.
I could run like the wind blows. From that day on,
if I was going somewhere, I was running!
Mama: You can't keep trying to rescue me all the time.
Forest: They was trying to grab you. Mama: A lot of people try to grab me.
When I got tired, I slept. When I got hungry, I ate.
When I had to go, you know, I went.
Dear God, make me a bird. So I could fly far.
Far far away from here.
I have been killed many times. I have been stunned 13 times.
I'm pretty tired... I think I'll go home now.
