I've just watched Marley & me for about the 10th time and it still makes me cry even though I know most of the dialogue by now! It got me thinking about how certain films and lines stay close to your heart for different reasons... this films always reminds me of my childhood dog who we had for 12 years, his name was Shep and we loved him dearly... everyday there he would be waiting for us when we got off the school bus wagging his tail to greet us, even when he got old and weary we could rely on him to be there waiting in his usual place in rain, hail or snow! He really was a part of the family. Anyway my favourite lines from this film are "A dog has no use for fancy cars, big homes, or designer clothes. A water log stick will do just fine. A dog doesn't care if you're rich or poor, clever or dull, smart or dumb. Give him your heart and he'll give you his".

Nina: I love you.

Jamie: I love you.

Nina: I really love you.

Jamie: I really, truly love you.

Nina: I really, truly, madly love you.

Jamie: I really, truly, madly, deeply love you.

Nina: I really, truly, madly, deeply, passionately love you.

Jamie: I really, truly, madly, deeply, passionately, remarkably love you.

Nina: I really, truly, madly, deeply, passionately, remarkably, umm... deliciously love you.

Jamie: I really, truly, madly, passionately, remarkably, deliciously... juicily love you.

Nina: Deeply! Deeply! You passed on deeply, which was your word, which means you couldn't have meant it! So you're a fraud, that's it!

[Jaime playfully pushes Nina away, then pulls her back towards him]

Nina: You're probably a figment of my imagination...

[pauses]

Nina: Juicily?
