Famous quotes by Tom Hanks:

"My favorite traditional Christmas movie that I like to watch is All Quiet on the Western Front. It's just not December without that movie in my house."

"The year I was born, 1956, was the peak year for babies being born, and there are more people essentially our age than anybody else. We could crush these new generations if we decided too."

"If you have to have a job in this world, a high-priced movie star is a pretty good gig."

"My work is magnified by the fact that the streets of heaven are too crowded with angels / we know their names, they number a thousand for each red ribbon we wear here tonight."

"[referring to Apple Computer]"

"From now on we live in a world where man has walked on the Moon. It's not a miracle; we just decided to go."

"I don't know. People always think that there has got to be a dark side to everyone, a closet with skeletons, demons under the bed. People think all kinds of things about one another. They feel compelled to make up fears and false assumptions about th"

"There's a difference between solitude and loneliness. I can understand the concept of being a monk for a while."

"Life is like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get."

"If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. It's the hard that makes it great."

"Truth is, I'll never know all there is to know about you just as you will never know all there is to know about me. Humans are by nature too complicated to be understood fully. So, we can choose either to approach our fellow human beings with suspicion or to approach them with an open mind, a dash of optimism and a great deal of candour."

"I understand the concept of optimism. But I think with me what you get is a lack of cynicism."

"I love what I do for a living, it's the greatest job in the world, but you have to survive an awful lot of attention that you don't truly deserve and you have to live up to your professional responsibilities and I'm always trying to balance that with what is really important."

"E-mail is far more convenient than the telephone, as far as I'm concerned. I would throw my phone away if I could get away with it."

"At the end of the day it's got to be a good movie, it's got to be a funny movie, and it's got to make people think, 'Hey, I couldn't have spent my time any better.'"

"If you look at romantic comedies as pieces of commerce, the audience is looking for wish fulfillment."

"Human beings do things for a reason, even if sometimes it's the wrong reason."

"I would not want to live in a country that would have me as a leader in any sort of political bent."

"But look, I was born in 1956, the peak year for births in US history. I think I'm very representative of many of the thought processes my generation have been through and, by and large, people of my age have had their imprint planted on the consciousness of western society for a long time."
