How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Forrest Gump.
Quote #7
WESLEY: Who's the baby killer?
JENNY: This is my friend I told you about.
Big words from a guy who's two seconds away from hitting Jenny in the face. Forrest may be wearing the uniform of a baby killer, but Wesley is the violent one—and again, we see just how bad Jenny is at judging character. With friends like Wesley, who needs enemies?
Quote #8
LENORE: Is your friend stupid or something?
LT. DAN: What did you say?
Lt. Dan isn't Forrest's number-one fan, but he's not going to let anyone else talk smack about him. (Kind of like how it's fine for you to roll your eyes at your parents, but no one else better look at them sideways.) Lt. Dan might not know how to show it yet, but we're getting the sense that he's recognizing Forrest as a true friend.
