Jerry: She literally said, "life is like a box of chocolates"?
George: Yes, she said, "you never know what you're gonna get."
Jerry: "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get"?
George: Word for word.
Jerry: They have a card in them...
George: They have a menu.
Jerry: Right, the little menu card! So you know exactly what you're getting.
George: I told her that.
Jerry: So what did you do?
George: I took that box of chocolates and I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across the Upper West Side. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I'd just run across Manhattan. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Manhattan. For no particular reason I just kept on going.
