For anyone who’s ever faced a personal challenge, it doesn’t get much better than the 'Six Minutes' speech in VISION QUEST. This scene wasn’t in the 1979 novel by Terry Davis. Elmo's monologue was written specifically for the film by screenwriter Darryl Ponicsan (THE LAST DETAIL, TAPS). Actor J. C. Quinn absolutely knocks it out of the park here.
If you’d like to support the @FMJDiary project, you can bid on an original poster below. I signed and inscribed it with Elmo’s iconic line: “It ain't the six minutes... it's what happens in that six minutes.”

The moment when you tell your kids that tomorrow will be a device free day. And your oldest son decides to make the world dumbest comment "well that will last 20 minutes." All right, bet 😉
Stop waiting to get lucky. Stop waiting for a big break. Instead, be thankful, truly thankful for what you do have. And go out there and fight and battle and brawl to make your own luck.
