1. When Bubba tells Forrest about all the types of shrimp.

2. "Life is like a box of chocolates."

3. Forrest's journey when he keeps running.

6. When Forrest discovered his love of ping pong.

7. When Forrest found out he had a son.

8. Forrest and Jenny's childhood friendship.

9. When Forrest realized his purpose in the Vietnam War, which ended up making him a hero.
