Memorable quotes from "Big Fish"

Norther Winslow: I've been working on this poem for 12 years.
Young Ed Bloom: Really?
Norther Winslow: There's a lot of expectation. I don't wanna disappoint my fans.
Young Ed Bloom: May I?
Young Ed Bloom: [Edward reeds the poem on the notebook ] The grass so green Skies so blue. Spectra is really great!
Young Ed Bloom: It's only three lines long.
Norther Winslow: This is why you should never show a work in progress.

Leaves fall for good


I don't remember the last time I experienced summer this way. Though it was hot but not like this summer. Not only me but my friends will agree with that too. It's different than just the change of seasons than I have seen in previous years. Leaves are falling. Yes they are. At least we were aware of this fall long time back.


But, Leaves fall for good.
