How Happy is the blameless vessels lot
The world forgetting by the world forgot
Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind
Each prayer excepted and each wish resigned

There are people who seriously watch movies over and over and over again for words they say in movies?

You bet! I do it all the time just to memorize Jim's one liners so i can use them when i talk to people.
Nothing says funny or interesting like reciting lines from one of Jim's films.
Scary thing is i 've seen Dumb and Dumber so many times that i can say every line in the movie and describe the scene as well.

It's actually a poem by Alexander Pope that was quoted in the film...

Actually it is:
How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot
the world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind
Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned.

Come on, vessel and vestal, gotta get your words straight.
Besides, it looks better with accurate punctuation and grammar.
And no offense to you, trishroberts.

I judge poetry on how it sounds rather than how it looks on paper. . . but to each their own.
