Brooke
I brought you back your house keys. It's a very nice house -- big rooms, no parents. I used to have one of those.
Brooke
Someone once said: it's the good girls who keep diaries. The bad girls never have the time. Me... I just wanna live a life I'm gonna remember. Even if I don't write it down.
Haley
Whatever. The point is at the end of the day, all your bluster and BS don't mean anything to math because math don't care. And neither do I.
Jimmy Edwards
So you wanna know what things were like fifty years ago? Well, the truth is there's not a single person in this place worth remembering in fifty years.
Lucas
Happiness comes in many forms -- in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be.
Lucas
Have you ever wondered what marks our time here? If one life can really make an impact on the world? Or if the choices we make matter? I believe they do. And I believe that one man can change many lives... for better or worse!
Nathan
What's my problem? My problem's on the other side of that wall. And in 5 minutes, if I'm not perfect, they're going to eat me alive. That's my problem.
Nathan
Well you can go on tour but if you do we're over.
Nathan
You know, just when I think things can't get any weirder around here, Mom takes over Karen's cafe. I think I'm going to invite Lucas over to spend the night.
Peyton
I feel like you're always rescuing me. Also, like there's a giant elephant standing on my head.
Whitey
There's no shame in being afraid. Hell, we're all afraid. What you gotta do is figure out what you're afraid of, because when you put a face on it you can beat it. Better yet, you can use it. Looking back on what I said all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I've come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way you wanted them to is a measure of a successful life, then some would say I'm a failure.
Lucas Scott Quotes
• But I can't do it. And even worse, I don't know why I can't do it. You know, it's like, no matter how confusing or screwed up life got, the game always made sense. It was mine, you know. And in a lot of ways it's who I am. But I can't be that person in their gym, or in their uniforms, or... in their world.
• Did you ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? It makes you wonder how many people have pictures of you.
• Ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it four years, like high school? One year? An eight-week walking tour? Can your life change in a month, or a week, or a single day? We're always in a hurry to grow up, to go places, to get ahead... but when you're young, one hour can change everything.
• I was there but not to kill you. I saved your life but I should have let you burn.
• Katherine Anne Porter once said: There seems to be a kind of order in the universe... in the movement of the stars and the turning of the Earth and the changing of the seasons. But human life is almost pure chaos. Everyone takes his stance, asserts his own right and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and his own.
• Many people die with music still in them. Why is that so? Too often it's because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time's run out.
• Most of our life is a series of images. They pass us by like towns on the highway. But sometimes, a moment stuns us as it happens. And we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment... every part of it... will live on forever.
• They're afraid people might find out who they are before they find it out themselves.
• So I'm confused. You want to be anonymous and you let the world watch you on a web cam.
• What are you Keith? An angel? A bad dream?
Brooke
I wanted you to fight for me! I wanted you to say there is no one else that you could ever be with and that you would rather be alone than without me. I wanted the Lucas Scott from the beach that night; telling the world that he's the one for me.
Karen
I know you're searching for things, Lucas. And I hope with all my heart that you find the answers to your questions. But the answers that you're looking for are closer than you think. They're in your heart. And in the hearts of those who love you.
Lucas
I loved it and I was good at it. I mean, you ever have something that you knew that you were better at than almost anybody else?
Peyton
At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just not facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world, six billion souls. And sometimes... all you need is one.
Peyton
Don't laugh... but anytime I have a dream about my mom or Ellie, I like to think it's their way of contacting me from the other side. Like dreams are e-mails for ghosts, and it's their way of sending me a message.
Peyton
I am in a hurry to find out if my dad is dead. It's kind of surreal.
Peyton
I read a poem once... about a girl who had a crush on a guy who died. She imagined him up in heaven with all the beautiful angels... and she was jealous. Ellie is gone. I imagine her with all the badass angels now. Hanging out with them in their black leather jackets -- causing trouble. But I'm not jealous. I just... miss her.
Peyton
Imagine a future moment in your life where all your dreams come true. You know it's the greatest moment of your life and you get to experience it with one person. Who's standing next to you?
Peyton
Losing your heart's desire is tragic, but gaining your heart's desire is all you can wish for. So if that's tragic, then give me tragedy!
Rachel
Okay, let me get this straight. You don't have feelings for Lucas anymore, Peyton does, but she's willing to hide those feelings if you asked her to. Sounds like a pretty great friend to me.
Brooke
What are you laughing about? Your "I love yous" send people to their grave.
Derek
I guess I'm supposed to tell you have too much makeup on, your skirt is too short, and the boys are after only one thing. But you look beautiful.
Haley
Why is it that it's so much easier to forgive a stranger than someone you love?
Haley
Oh, come on! Tortured artist meets tortured athlete? Talk about your obvious attraction.
Haley
You keep going to that bridge. I never thought I'd be jealous of a river.
Lucas
You told me to fight for you and I did. But you never fought for me.
Mouth
How could I pass up an invitation to my own break-up?
Mr. James
You can drive at 16, go to war at 18, drink at 21, and retire at 65. So who can say what age you have to be to find your true love?
Nathan
I need to be tutored; I think I'm failing marriage.
Peyton
I asked him once who he wanted next to him when his dreams came true. He said you
Anna
Don't be too fat, or too thin, or too dark, or too light; don't be too sexual, or too chaste, or too smart, or too dumb. Be yourself. But make sure you fit in.
Cooper
Listen to me, no matter what happened on that bridge, it was still my fault. I knew how old Rachel was, and I didn't walk away. That's not very heroic is it? Anyways, I wouldn't even be alive to say anything if it wasn't for you.
Karen
In your life you're going to go to some great places, and you're going to do some wonderful things. But no matter where you go or who you become, this place will always be with you. There is only one Tree Hill. And it's your home.
Keith
All right just to recap on the "reasons to stay" side we got: Dan's an ass, you were an ass, my new teaching job, we both get a fresh start, your mother annihilated my heart, and this apartment has a killer view.
Keith
Most people are stronger than they know. They just forget to believe in it sometimes.
Lucas
She makes me laugh. She's honest. She's not afraid to be herself. Plus, she's not covered head to toe in issues.
Max
I kind of always thought you were looking for a little faith. Most days, I think you still are. Then again, I'm 32. I live with my parents. What the hell do I know?
Nathan
As Haley James would say: You already know the answer.
Peyton
My pen is the barrel of a gun. Remind me which side you should be on.
Peyton
Replaying the shot you missed. The shot that ended our season. The shot you probably, what, made a 1,000 times?
Whitey
The important thing is not to be bitter over life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past, and recognize that every day won't be sunny. And when you find yourself lost in the darkness of despair, remember, it's only in the black of night that you see the stars, and those stars lead you back home.
Nathan Scott
So you want me to tell you something about myself? I don't have anything to say. Even if I did you'd be wrong to believe me. Trust is a lie. Nobody ever knows any more.
Haley Scott
You should've thought of that last night. You know I keep... I keep putting myself out there and you keep blowing it and it's probably a good thing because at this point there is nothing that you can say or do that's gonna surprise me!
Haley Scott
Be careful with his heart. It's more fragile than you think.
Peyton Sawyer
I want to draw something that means something to someone. Like when you go see a really great band live for the first time and no one is saying it but everyone's thinking it... I want to draw that feeling, but I can't.
Brooke Davis
[to Haley] Sometimes people play hard to get to know that the other person's feelings are real.
Brooke Davis
The "Hey, let's hook up after the game" nod. You wanna know what I think? I think Nathan likes tutor girl, tutor girl likes Lucas, and I know I like Lucas, and I have no idea who the hell you like any more so this has been turned into one big love... rectangle plus one... whatever that is!
Brooke Davis
Okay, guy in need of a clue. Here's one. Women send signals. That was a brush off. Before you dip into your shallow pool of wit let me paint us a picture and save us both the trouble. Here's your evening. You are going to slink back off to your buddies, laugh this off, get wasted, go home, and make nice with yourself. But don't be thinking of me, because even your fantasy of me, isn't interested in you.
Brooke Davis
Lucas was my gangrene-infected, amputated limb.
I brought you back your house keys. It's a very nice house -- big rooms, no parents. I used to have one of those.
Brooke
