Doctor：All right, Forest, you can open your eyes now. Lets take a little walk around. (Forrest walks around the room with braces on his leg.) How do those feel? His legs are strong, Mrs. Gump. As strong as I’ve ever seen. But his back is as crooked as a politician. But we’re gonna straighten him right up now, won’t we, Forrest? 医生：好了。福，现在你可以睁开你的眼睛。我们走走看。（福两腿上绑着矫形夹在房内走动。）感觉怎么样？甘太太，他的腿和我从前见过的一样强键，但是他的背像政客一样弯。不过我们会矫正他的。是吧，福勒斯特？ Mrs.Gump：Forrest! ： Forrest：(Now when I was a baby, my mom named me after the great Civil War hero, General Nathan Bedford Forrest.

Don’t ever let anybody tell you they’re better than you, Forrest. If God intended everybody to be the same, he’d have given us all braces on our legs. 甘普太太：你盯着看什么？没见过小男孩带矫正夹吗？福，别让别人说他比你强。如果上帝要人人都一样的话，他会给我们每个人都带上矫正夹的。 Forrest：We lived about a quarter mile off Route 17, about half a mile from the town of Greenbough, Alabama. That’s in the county of Greenbough. Out house had been in Momma’s family since her grandpa’s grandpa’s grandpa had come across the ocean about a thousand years ago, or something like that. Since it was just me and Momma, and we had all these empty rooms, Momma decided to let those rooms out. Mostly to people passing through from, oh, Mob
