"Remember, a heart is measured not by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others."

I've always liked that line. But the one that makes me cry is when the Tin Woodsman says, when Dorothy says goodbye: "Now I know I have a heart. Because it's breaking."

He's my favorite character because he's so sweet. I know guys aren't supposed to talk like that. But it's true.

I think guys should talk like that. What makes any man compelling is his heart and his willingness to open it.
