About this quote

"Don't ever let somebody tell you you can't do something. Not even me. You got a dream, you gotta protect it." is preserved here as a credited line from Chris Gardner in The Pursuit of Happyness (2006), not as an anonymous standalone saying. The combination of drama and biography storytelling and Will Smith's performance is part of what gives the line its staying power, which is why this detail page keeps the movie, character, and actor together in the same context.

This quote is grouped with Dreams & Hope and Motivation & Success and tags such as dreams, determination, and parenting so readers can move into connected lines without losing the original source. Use the page when you want a properly attributed caption, a share-ready quote image, or a path into more dialogue from The Pursuit of Happyness and similar films.
