Hello. My name‟s Forrest. ForrestGump. Do you want a chocolate? I could eat about amillion and a half of these. My mama always said “Life was like a box of choc olates. You neverknow what you‟re going to get.” Those must be comfortable shoes. I bet♥ you could walk all day inshoes like that and not feel a thing. I wish I had shoes l ike that.Woman: My feet hurt.Forrest:Mama always said “There‟s an awful lot♥ you can tell about a person by their s hoes.“Wherethey‟re going. Where they‟ve been.”I‟ve worn lots of shoes. I bet if I think ab out it real hard I couldremember my first pair of shoes. Mama said they would take m e anywhere. She said they was mymagic shoes.Doctor:Alright, Forrest. Open your eyes now. Let‟s take a little walk around. How do th ose feel? Hislegs are strong, Mrs. Gump, as strong as I‟ve ever seen. But his back is a s crooked♥ as apolitician. But we‟re going to straighten him right up now, aren‟t we, Forrest?Mrs.Gump:Forrest!Forrest:Now when I was a baby, Mama named me after♥ the great Civil War hero, General Nathan Bedford Forrest. She said we was related to him in some way and what he did was, he started up t his club calledthe Ku Klux Klan♥. They‟d all dress up in their robes and their bed sheets and act li ke a bunch of ghostsor spooks♥ or something. They‟d even put bed sheets on their horses and ride around. Anyway, that‟show I got my name,ForrestGump. Mama said the Forrest part was to remind me that sometimes we all do thingsthat, well, just don‟t make no sense.Mrs.Gump:What are y‟all starin‟ at? Haven‟t you ever seen a little boy with braces on his le gs before?Don‟t ever let anybody tell you that they‟re better than you, Forrest. If God intended everybody tobe the same, he‟d have given us all braces on our legs. Forrest:Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them. We liv ed about aquarter mile off Route 17, about a half mile from the town of Greenbow, Al abama. That‟s in thecountry of Greenbow. Our house had been in mama‟s family sinc e her grandpa‟s grandpa‟s grandpahad come across the ocean about a thousand years a go, something like that. Since it was just meand mama and we had all these empty roo ms, mama decided to let those rooms out♥, mostly topeople passin‟ through like, oh, from Mobile, Montgomery, places like that. That‟s how me andmama got money. Ma ma was a real smart Lady.Mrs.Gump:Remember what I told you Forrest. You‟re no different than anybody else is. Di d you hearwhat I said, Forrest? You are the same as everybody else. You are no differ ent .Mr.Hillcock:Your boy‟s different, Mrs.Gump. His I.Q♥. is 75. Mrs.Gump: Well, we‟re all di fferent,Mr.Hillcock.Forrest:She wanted me to have the finest education so she took me to theGreenbowCoun tyCentralSchool. I met the principal and all.Mr.Hillcock:I want to show you something, Mrs.Gump. Now this is normal. Forrest is right here. Thestate requires a minimum I.Q. of 80 to attend public school, Mrs.Gump.

But we didn’t mind. Our housewas never empty. There was always folks coming and going. Sometimes we had so many peoplestaying with us that every room was filled with travelers. You know, folks livin’ out of their suitcasesand hat cases, and sample cases.
