“You died on a Saturday morning. And I had you placed here under our tree. And I had that house of your father’s bulldozed to the ground. Mama always said dyin’ was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn’t. Little Forrest, he’s doing just fine. About to start school again soon. I make his breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. I make sure he combs his hair and brushes his teeth every day. Teaching him how to play ping-pong. He’s really good. We fish a lot. And every night, we read a book. He’s so smart, Jenny. You’d be so proud of him. I am. He, uh, wrote a letter, and he says I can’t read it. I’m not supposed to, so I’ll just leave it here for you. Jenny, I don’t know if Mama was right or if, if it’s Lieutenant Dan. 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. I miss you, Jenny. If there’s anything you need, I won’t be far away.”  Forrest Gump (1994) dir. Robert Zemeckis

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. It’s simple. That’s what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, get all tangled up, just tango on.

Scent of a Woman (1992) dir. Martin Brest

People only ask questions when they’re ready to hear the answers.

It´s natural to want someone you love to do what you want, or what you think would be good for them, but you have to let everything happen to them. You can’t interfere with people you love any more than you’re supposed to interfere with people you don’t even know. And that’s hard, …, because you often feel like interfering - you want to be the one who makes the plans.

How we love to love things for other people; how we love to have other people love things through our eyes.

The Cider House Rules (1999)

Director - Lasse Hallström, Cinematography - Oliver Stapleton

“To do nothing. It’s a great idea, really. Maybe if I just wait and see long enough, then I won’t have to do anything or decide anything, you know? I mean, maybe if I’m lucky enough, someone else will decide and choose and do things for me.”

“The emblematic scene of the film is the embrace of the four sons and Sofia with Cleo, among the waves of the Gulf of Mexico. More than a hug is a tree of arms, a sacramental tree. It’s the tree of the Mexican family.” — Alfonso Cuarón
