Secondhand Lions came on again today...

Hub's speech:

"Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good. That honour, 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! Remember that boy...remember that. Doesn't matter if it is true or not, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in......got that?"

Hub in the bar to the hoods, on who he is:

I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a dozen fortunes, killed many men and loved only one woman with a passion a flea like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. Now, go home, boy!"

Secondhand Lions wasn't saying that the truth didn't matter...I think essentially Hub was just saying: 'all those things that are good, think on those things.' (Phil 4:8).

watch the movie!!!
