I know we all think that we're immortal. We are supposed to feel that way, we are graduating. But, like our brief four years in high school, what makes life valuable is that it does't last forever. What makes it precious is that it ends.
And I know that now more than ever. And I say it, today of all days, to remind us that time is luck. So don't waste living someone else's life, make yours count for something. Fight for what matters for you. No matter what. But even if it fall short, what better way is there to live?
It's esay to feel hopeful on a beautiful day like today. But there will be dark days ahead of us too. There will be days where you feel all alone, and that's when hope is needed most. No matter how buried it gets or how lost you feel, but you must promise one that you will hold on to hope, keep it alive. We have to be greater than what we suffer. My wish for you, is to become hope. People need that. And even if we fail , what better way is there to live?
As we look around here today, at all of the people who helped make us who we are. I know it feels like we are going to say goodbye. But we will carry a piece of each other into everything that we do next to remind us of who we are and of what we are meant to be.
I've had a great four years with you, I will miss you very much.

    The whole film can be summarized into 6 thesis titles: On the rap consequences of being faithful to the animation setting On the rise of the Spider-Man system after de-Disney, on the refresh frequency of the big screen ads on the streets of Jiannanchun on the streets of New York Discuss the importance and loss of having a girlfriend Discussion on the possibility of sad boys and boys (take DiCaprio x Brad Pitt = DeHaan as an example). Summary of the forgetful nature of the lone star of the god of evil

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 quotes

  • Gwen Stacy: There was an accident in the genomics lab, and they're covering it up. And I found out. That guy from Times Square last night? I met him. He was an electrical engineer in the building. And he loved Spider-Man, by the way. He was, like, a fanatic.

    Peter Parker: I didn't get love vibes. I got more of a "want to kill me with his electricity" vibe.

    Gwen Stacy: That's actually kind of what it's like to love you.

  • Peter Parker: This is the maintenance closet, Gwen. This is most cliched hiding place you could've chosen. This is the stupidest hiding place.

    Gwen Stacy: I'm sorry, I didn't take us to the Bahamas of hiding places.
