But happiness is a mood and it’s a condition, not a destination; it’s like being tired or hungry, it’s not permanent.

Nathan Scott: “You ever heard the expression, “The best things in life are free?” Well that expression is true. Every once in a while, people step up, they rise above themselves. Sometimes they surprise you and sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard, but if you look close enough, you can find hope in the words of children, in the bars of the song and in the eyes of someone you love. And, if you’re lucky… if you’re the luckiest person on this entire planet… the person you love decides to love you back.”

When did we lose our way… consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness?”
Lucas Scott: “Sometimes people have to cry out all their tears to make room for a heart full of smiles.”

Haley: “Did you ever wonder what it would be like if you weren’t you anymore? If you were suddenly gone… how would your world react? Whatever you imagined is wrong. There’s nothing romantic about death. Grief is like an ocean – it’s deep and dark and bigger than all of us, and pain is a thief in the night – quiet, persistent, unfair. Diminished by time and faith and love.”
Brooke Davies: “I am who am. No excuses.”
Whitey Durham: “Most of the time, the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you’ll get everything you wished for.

Because I wouldn’t give it back for the world.”

Lucas Scott: “At the end of the day, it’s the choices you make that count.”
Nathan: “You know it’s been said that we just don’t recognize the significant moments of our lives while they’re happening. We grow complacent with ideas, or things, or people and we take them for granted, and it’s usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you’ve realized how much you need it – how much you loved it.”

But that feeling is a lie, and if you hold on… just find the courage to face it all for another day… someone or something will find the way and make it all okay.

How many moments of other people’s lives have we been in? Were we a part of someone’s life when their dreams came true… or were we there when their dreams died? Did we keep trying to get in, as if we were somehow destined to be there, or did the shot take us by surprise? Just think… you could be a big part of someone else’s life and not even know it.”

Or to give someone a second chance.Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream.Because it’s only when you’re tested that you truly discover who you are.And it’s only when you’re tested that you discover who you can be.The person you want to be does exist, somewhere on the other side of hard work and faith and belief…And beyond the heartache and the fear of what lies ahead.”

Lucas Scott: “There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment, you must choose your direction. Will you fight to stay on path? Will others tell you who you are, or will you label yourself? Will you be haunted by your choice or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or simply give up. There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment who will you be? Will you let down your defenses and find solace in someone unexpected? Will you reach out? Will you face your greatest fear bravely and move forward with faith? Or, will you succumb to the darkness in your soul?”

Lucas Scott: “Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small – like when we do a bad thing for a good reason. Some are bigger – like when you let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain of regret by making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret because we’re looking forward to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past, and sometimes we bury our regret by promising to change our own ways. But – our biggest regrets are not for the things we did, but for the things we didn’t do. Things we didn’t say that could’ve saved someone that we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that’s headed their way.”
Lucas Scott: “Sometimes, it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who’s struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. That feeling is a lie.”
Lucas Scott: “Do 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 rock 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. And when you’re young, one hour can change everything.”
Peyton Sawyer: “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?”
Nathan Scott: “It’s hard missing someone, but if you miss someone that means you’re lucky; it means you had someone special in your life, someone worth missing.”
Dan: “It’s been said that the saddest thing a man will ever face is ‘what might have been.’But what of the man who’s faced with what was, or what may have been? Or what may never be? Or what can no longer be?Choosing the right path is never easy.It’s a decision we make with only our hearts to guide us. But sometimes we find our way to something better.Sometimes we fight through the regret and remorse of our mistakes, our malice and our jealousy and the shame we feel for not being the people we were meant to be.And that’s when we find our way to something better, or something better finds its way to us”

To find your perfect match – the one that completes you. But as you get older, you realize it’s not always that easy. It’s not until the end of your life that you realize how the plans you made were simply plans. At the end, when you’re looking back instead of forward, you want to believe that you made the most of what life gave you. You want to believe that you’re leaving something good behind. You want it all to have mattered.”
