Stand by Me Quote
Gordie : Fuck writing, I don't want to be a writer. It's stupid. It's a stupid waste of time.
Chris : That's your dad talking.
Gordie : Bullshit.
Chris : Bull true.
Chris : I know how your dad feels about you. He doesn't give a shit about you. Denny was the one. He cared about and don't try to tell me different. You're just a kid, Gordie.
Gordie : Oh, gee! Thanks, Dad.
Chris : Wish the hell I was your dad. You wouldn't be goin' around talkin' about takin' these stupid shop courses if I was. It's like God gave you something, man, all those stories you can make up. And He said, "This is what we got for ya, kid. Try not to lose it." Kids lose everything unless there's someone there to look out for them. And if your parents are too fucked up to do it, then maybe I should.
