It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning's done!"

God says no!" I was watching the movie with my GF and her crazy mother, and we were both just roaring with laughter, both having had a crazy mother and probably having asked the same thing at some point in our childhoods. Her mom was just staring at us in total bewilderment because she couldn't figure out what we thought was so funny.
