Well, the one thing I've thought about is having dad give me away. You know when he takes your hand and he puts it in the hand of the person you marry? That's the only part I've ever wanted.

About This Quote

In the movie, Forrest Gump, a young Forrest has a conversation with his father. His father tells him that he wants to give him away at the wedding. Forrest says, “Well, the one thing I've thought about is having dad give me away. You know when he takes your hand and he puts it in the hand of the person you marry? That's the only part I've ever wanted.” This is a great example of how our lives are controlled by other people’s decisions. In this case, his father wanted to give him away at a wedding and he never wanted to have that experience.
