  “… maybe it was McCain’s role as ‘movie-teller’ that he cherishes most– the man who used to narrate the plots of films to his fellow PoWs in the compound. ‘I must have told a hundred movies,’ says McCain. ‘Of course I don’t know a hundred movies– I made them up.’” – The Guardian Memorable Quotes  Lieutenant Daniel Taylor: Where the Hell is this God of yours?   Forrest Gump: [narrating] It’s funny Lieutenant Dan said that, ’cause right then, God showed up.
