hitch

the movie 'hitch' has become one of my favorite movies. the storyline of a 'date doctor' who himself doesn't believe in the product he pitches (love) somehow runs parallel to a story of someone i knew... hahaha!

the movie, although funny and witty, brings to forth the one truth that has always been under the noses of both men and women... the truth that in life and love, there are no basic principles, we just have to live and experience it.

this movie also has a lot of notable quotes that caught my attention, to wit:

you know what it's like getting up every morning? feeling hopeless, feeling like the love of your life is waking up with the wrong man. but, at the same time hoping that she still finds happiness, even if it's never going to be with you.

this quote started like sounding pathetic but ended with a flourish. yes, we may feel hopeless that the person we love maybe in love with somebody else. but then again, being in love also means wishing and wanting happiness for the other person, even when you might not be the one she shares it with.

life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away.

this one i already heard of as a text message from last year but its message is truly wonderful. it sort of points us to the direction of living our lives to the fullest, enjoying every second of it.

people who are guarded are afraid other people might see through them... so they hide behind layers of secrecy and humor.

one of my favorites. people who have gone through some tough and hurtful instances in life have the tendency to put up a wall between them and the world. they keep every important thing to themselves, content that somehow the the time will come when all the hurt would just magically disappear. they do allow people in but usually, they force them out when the matters become serious. they usually do so even when the person that came into their life might be the one person that could bring the wall down. its a sad thing, but is true...

i'm a guy. since when do we get anything right the first time?

the funniest of the most notable quotes in this movie. its basically admitting that we men usually don't have a clue with regards to women. since women are mistifying and at the same time wonderful, they become puzzles that men love to complete but are having a hard time doing it. little that most of us know that women do not need to be figured out, they just need to be understood and accepted.

because that's what people do. they leap, and hope to God they can fly, because otherwise you just drop like a rock, wondering the whole way down, why in the *hell* did I jump? but here I am, Sarah, falling, and the only one that makes me feel like I can fly... is you.

sounds cheesy i know but consider the thought, the feelings. if you have been in love, you will know the feeling of seemingly like flying while walking. every step has this certain bounce, every smile has this certain glow, every word the comes out are fruits of inspiration. being in love with someone can indeed make you fly!


hitch is one great movie for me! i know others see it the same way.
