35 Unforgettable Forrest Gump Quotes

I believe that each of us has a special place somewhere in the world, where he or she makes the most contribution.

The story Forrest Gump tells is the story of a man who is capable of doing the impossible.

What I can believe is that the trailer for this film has been online for quite some time already, at least since early 2011.

It’s a hard story to translate to movie-language, so we didn’t try. It’s a shame, because the whole thing is really touching and well-written.

I have a friend who is a scientist. He doesn’t think life happens every day. He believes that things only happen by accident. I disagree. I think life is a miracle.

The rain was so hard and thick it seemed to fly horizontally – like it came straight up from the ground and hit the top of the clouds. It was hard to see through the rain and so it seemed like it was after dark. It rained so hard that the wind began to blow hard and was whipping the water around. At times the wind seemed to come straight up from underneath and then again like it was flying horizontally. It also began to rain at night.

People who live together like me and Jenny get along great.

In short, paraphrase gives an accurate statement of the original, while paraphrasing gives a different way of saying the same thing. In the example below, in paraphrasing, the first and last sentences are different, but what they’re saying is still the same.

There’s no one better at talking about their own life and experiences, regardless of how outlandish they may seem. It’s no wonder Gump has become so well-known over the years.

This is how I feel about the way the world is going.

First time I heard the sweetest voice in the wide world was on the playground in 3rd grade when I saw a little girl with brown hair and big brown eyes.

You may not know exactly what you are doing at this point, but you are doing it for some reason and there is a purpose in what you are doing. This is a very exciting adventure that you are on. It may not be clear right now, but it is clear how things will turn out. You have been put here to accomplish something.

The quote is not from Forrest Gump, but it’s easy for me to relate.

Mama says that he had magic shoes that could take him anywhere.

“Hi, my name is Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump. I can’t remember where I was born, but I know I was born in a town called Greenbow, Alabama.”

The above examples show simple, syntactic paraphrasing using only ‘s’ and ‘c’ to make the examples more readable and understandable.

Don’t ever listen to anybody tell you they’re smarter than you.

I thought it was a bunch of BS until I realized I had to live my life in the past. If you’re still in the past, nothing changes. You can’t move forward.

I’m not entirely sure which author this quote comes from. It is one of the more disturbing (to me) ones. I could have chosen to paraphrase it much more innocuously, but I chose not to do so, thinking some of you would enjoy it.

`Nana Mimi`s magic shoes could take my little family anywhere. `Nana Mimi`s feet could bring me to `Ewa beach and she could take me to `Iolani Palace. `Nana Mimi`s feet could even take us to China. I believe `Nana Mimi`s feet were magic.
