Quotes from Tom Hanks's Characters

    1. Forrest Gump: Hello. My name is Forrest. Forrest Gump.
    From Forrest Gump. Submitted by Jean R (3 days ago)
    1. Jimmy Dugan: Shit, Dottie, if you want to go back to Oregon and make a hundred babies, great, I'm in no position to tell anyone how to live. But sneaking out like this, quitting, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. Baseball is what gets inside you. It's what lights you up, you can't deny that.
    2. Dottie Hinson: It just got too hard.
    3. Jimmy Dugan: It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great.
