Favorite Movie Quotes: Secondhand Lions

"If you want to believe in something, believe in it. Just because something isn't true that's no reason you can't believe in it. There's a long speech I give to young men, sounds you need to hear a piece of it. Just a piece. Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things that a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love-- true love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in. Got that?"
