One Tree Hill: Other Characters

Erica Marsh: It's funny. You're scared of what's in here, I'm scared of what's out there.

Jimmy Edwards: You really think I am the only one. Then ask yourself this. Have you ever treated someone like crap in this school or left anyone out? Have you ever broken up with someone in the time it takes to pass a note and disappear? Or talk trash behind their back? Or maybe you just ignored it all? You know why you worry about the big game or the prom or the bake sale for the pep club. You ask yourself that and then you tell me if there is anyone else out there.

Tim Smith: Awe. He's 86'd yo.
Ellie: Don't be afraid, Peyton. Every song has a coda, a final movement. Whether it fades out or crashes away, every song ends. Is that any reason not to enjoy the music?

Ellie: You got the surviving part down. I want you to focus more on the living.

Ellie: I don't buy that for one second. And if you keep this up, hiding in your art and your sadness, you're really gonna miss out. Because the truth is: there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just life.

Abby Brown: What's wrong with you? He's just a kid. We're all just kids and we just have this life and the things you say and do, we feel that. How can you have so much hate in your heart? How can you act like it doesn't matter? It does matter. What happened to us? We're just kids. We can't be like this. It's not possible.

Jimmy Edwards: You know they're going to remember me as a monster but I wonder how they'll remember you?

Ellie: First rule of a rock tour: Nobody knows what anyone else is doing.

Haley's Parents: In-laws are like the FBI. They have a system.

'Clean Teen' Shelly: I want you to join our club. Virgins for Life.
Rachel: Virgins for life?
'Clean Teen' Shelly: Well maybe not for life but Virgins until Marriage didn't sound as good.

Rachel: What exactly does a 'Clean Teen' do?
'Clean Teen' Shelly: Everything you guys do. Except we abstain from sex.
Rachel: You're completely celebant.
'Clean Teen' Shelly: Pretty much.
Brooke: What does 'Pretty much' mean?
'Clean Teen' Shelly: Well we Brooke ourselves.
Rachel: I'll join.

'Clean Teen' Shelly: So you're decisions are your own then.

'Clean Teen' Shelly: Complicated as in you don't want to get too fat to fit into your prom dress.

'Clean Teen' Shelly: Why would a guy buy a cow when he can get the milk for free?

'Clean Teen' Shelly: It's about keeping our bodies pure. Have you ever had gonorrhea or chlamydia. Not fun

'Clean Teen' Shelly: At least I'm not a baby killer.

Stalker Derek: I guess I'm supposed to tell you, you have too much make up on, the skirt is too short, and the boys are only out for one thing. But you look beautiful.

Glenda: Yeah Shelly was like the biggest slut at church camp last summer.

'Clean Teen' Shelly: You don't think about it. You meet a cute boy and you're having fun. I couldn't tell my parents, I mean you don't get pregnant at church camp.

'Clean Teen' Shelly: You can't take it back. You think it's going to make everything better but it doesn't. You can't take it back.

Stalker Derek: Do you want to kill the messenger?
Peyton: No, God knows if we did that in this town every time someone got pregnant there wouldn't be nobody left.
Stalker Derek: Don't take it too hard about Brooke, there is a guy out there for you Peyton.

Real Derek: Fear is like a disease, if you don't treat it, it will eat you up.

Ellie: At the time I got pregnant I liked drugs more than I liked you.

Real Derek: The first step in learning how to not be scared, is learning to defend yourself.

Nick Chavez: You like to be the center of attention. Get a rise out of people. That's the Hallmark of insecurity.

Real Derek: What I want is for you to admit you have a problem so we can deal with it, instead of hiding and admitting everything is fine. Every day people all over the world get beat down. They lose their families, they lose their friends, and everyday those people fight like hell to put their lives back together. They don't curl into a ball and give up.

Real Derek: The world backs off Peyton, when you make it back off.

Gigi: He's 92% from the line and 100% hot.

Courtney Smith (inmate): Which time? I’ve always had my suspicions. I didn’t find out for sure until I walked in on him having sex with my neighbor. And even then he tried to deny it. The only think men do more than cheat, is lie.

David: So I guess I was wrong. There was something you could do to make me give up hope.

Sarah: Well what do you know? Character changes everything, doesn't it?

Sarah: If you let someone in, you'll erase me. You can't.

Sarah: You can't erase who we were or what we had. No one can. We burn so bright together. You won't lose that.

Sarah: Probably healthier than all the women you’ve had in your pool.

Sarah: But skipping a guys’ weekend to spend time with your dead wife probably no so healthy.

Sarah: Life is never fair. But you feeling miserable, is never going to change that.

Felix: First impressions are important, Anna, and yours says “Abierto all night."

Felix: Half the kids in this town were conceived on the first date.

Felix: I didn't break your window, baby, just your heart.

Felix: Just tell me if you can show me your heart. Because if you do, I'll guard it with my life.

Jules: A thief breaks in to steal. I break in with treats.

Jules: One of the reasons I fell for you was your independence. You made your own way in the world.

Lydia: It's moments like these that we're supposed to remember.

Josh: Did you see Brooke Davis's mom. I would totally hit that. I'm not even kidding. Right now today. I would hit that.

Lauren: You're the one that broke up with her. So if you still have feelings for her, just tell her, because it might not be over for you.

Lydia: Cancer doesn’t care much for promises.

Lydia: Men need to be hit over the head with things. Sometimes frying pans, mostly love. Don’t be afraid to do it.

Lydia: Give your head permission to follow your heart.

Lauren: I wasn’t worried about being your rebound Mouth. I was worried you’d be mine.

Lindsay: I remember the first time I read it. I was a junior editor, just out of college, missing my friends. I took two dozen manuscripts home for the weekend, just like I did every weekend, hoping that this time something would speak to me. And it did. It was a great first novel Luke. It brought you to me. But a writer’s career is about a body of work. It’s about the second book and the third and the fourth. It’s been two years and that wouldn’t scare me if I thought you were writing, but you’re not. So what am I supposed to do Luke?

Instant Star: Season One

Jamie: on the plus side, people already think we're dorks.

Jude: I wrote my first song when I was six. Got my first acoustic when I was ten and it has barely left my hands since. Everything I am, everything I've worked for has brought me to this stage tonight. Sometimes if you listen really hard you can almost hear it, the moment your life changes... forever.

Tommy: Do you want to stop because you're hurting my ears?!

Georgia: I believe that your songs can move minutes, but also believe that they can move people.

Jamie: So then I said, you're not changing her sound Timberlake so why don't you back off before I kick your quasi ass.

Kat: my point is you should talk to Jude before you start picking out china.

Jude: Kat they're playing my song with tubas.

Jamie: i haven't seen anything this dorky since the chess club's strawberry social.

Tommy: do you want to get it right or get it right now.

Tommy: the chords you want are in the guitar but they're hiding.

Kat: the man is like an Orlando bloom sundae smothered in johnny depp sauce.

Jude: you're everything i hate about music.

Tommy: Couldn't stay away, could ya? I mean look at her! She was born for this!
Jamie: Back when you were shaking your butt in your little boy band, Jude and I were locked in her bedroom, listening to Sonic Youth, writing songs that could change the world. So, save it!
Tommy: Does that look like her bedroom out there?

Jude: solid magazine is the rolling stone of the new millennium. landing a cover means that you've arrived and they want me. too bad i don't look anything like me.

Jude: i look like I've lost my way to the stripper pole.

Jude: Sadie's used to being the center of attention. me? not so much. the wierd thing is, i could get used to this.

EJ: When i'm cranky, ppl get injured.

jude: meatless meatloaf. isnt that just like loaf?

eden: some of us are a little realer than others.

eden: dont get me wrong, this whole sad girl with a guitar routine. it's a great marketing angle, steallar. i totally understand why you won over me. but under that discount fashion and bad attitude, you're just a one hit wonder waiting to happen. and everyone knows it jude.

porsia: some people can only feel big by making other people feel small.

tommy: jude is not a kid. not when it comes to music.

sadie: hey malibu barbie. you owe jude an apology. my sister can sing your butt off, which from the looks of it, is kinda fat.

porsia: fame is a lot like high school that way, except with better clothes

tommy: she is nothing but a mature artist

jude: thanks for sticking up for me today. in your own highly disfunctional way, it was kinda cool.

jude: creating a new song isnt that different from going to school, you have to put in hours of hard work and put yourself at the mercy of your teachers. and all you really want to know is, if you passed the test.

sadie: look, if you guys are going to have different rules f or jude and me, maybe you should write them down so i can keep up.

mom: do you remember when they were too young to talk back, i miss those days

jamie: you're supposed to be in the background not the spotlight. you jumped the line, big time.

jamie: the song, jude, it's gimmicky corporate crap.

jamie: its not your fault that the song is lame. the label made you go for a commercial cheesy song.

jude: if the song's lame, then so am i.

tommy: tommy q invades school girl's bathroom.

jude: she has an addiction to winning.

sadie: you cant change human nature. take every man in this world, genetically modify them, they're still dogs

sadie: are you diseased?

jude: he's not goign to go for some mall rat. tommy has taste.

kat: and i'm supposed to trust you now, mr. i can't read a map?

jamie: jude isnt my crush. she's my sky. she's my moom, my star, my everything.

sadie: this is such a classic jude moment. daddy's little favorite. can't stant not being the center of attention huh?

jude: what? me, oh please. sadie you want to the center of attention, the edges, the whole deal. at least i dont walk around trying to control people.

tommy: look i'm not stupid. i know what's going on. not that i dont mind being fought over, but you two have some serious issues, no doubt. you might want to work on them before you tear your whole family apart.

jude: you're just another trophy for her. there isnt one thing that she hasnt ever wanted that she didn't get.

jude: once upon a time there was a punk princess who rocked a musical kingdom. and she kinda dug its blue eyed prince. and then the emperor of hip hop entered and took the one thing that she wanted. the princess wanted back what was rightfully hers, the palace, the protools, and her prince. but the princess realized this wasnt fantasy, this was reality, and the princess realized it bites.

jude: cant believe you're catering to the whims of a boy diva.

jude: some beat box that needs a stylist to lay out his jammies.

jude: this coming from a guy that doesnt even write his own songs. i bet you cant even write out a grocery list without darius holding his hand.

jamie: forget the children, we need to feed these women.

jude: the joke is that i'm being ordered to apologize for telling the truth.

jude: the big shay is macking on me. you are macking on me right?

shay: jude, did you ever meet someone that makes you want to be better and that your music had everything?

kat: read my lips oblivio. i like your dorky haircut.

tommy: i guess i was holding you back.

jude: hes not an idea, he's a person.

shay: you're shockingly immuned to my smooth self.

jude: i can't believe the lengths i will go to satisfy my label. they want me to dance on my very first video. and this with my very first boyfriend. well he is my boyfriend, kinda, sorta, i think. i'm starting to get it though. dating is a lot like dancing, problem is i have no idea who is leading. if dating is like dancing, i need help.

jude: in front of camera room full of strangers kiss.

jamie: every kiss means something.

jude: since when are there booty girls in my video?

dad: no matter how famous you become i'm always going to be your number one fan.

sadie: you know what would have helped, not sleeping with him in the first place.

jude: and laast time i checked, it was my body. so his hands go where i say they go.

yvette: i'm not a bad perosn. i just fell for the wrong guy.

sadie: i dont want to know you. i need to hate you.

jude: how do you kiss someone who's just dumped you?

tommy: a real kiss isnt in the lips, it's in the hearts. and if this one isn't in this one with shay they it doesnt count.

jamie: you cant go around kissing people and telling poeple it doesnt count. that's like lip abuse.

kat: get over yourself. clearly you felt nothing but you felt the world moved for me. let me tell you something andrews, i felt nothing. zip. zero. zilch.

darius: a girlfriend is bad for his image. he has to look like he's living a dream.

jude: i thought the right guy was worth waiting for. i wanted it to mean soemthing. i wanted it to be with you.

jude: lately my life is like a really cool puzzle. school, home, the album, tommy, and now, shay. all these different pieces that i have to keep together, problem is that some of the pieces just refuse to fit.

shay's bodyguard: rule number one of the road, no attachments.

kat: there is not angle petey paranoia

shay: its funny in this business, how quickly we pass our prime.

tommy: he may be your boyfriend but you're not his girlfriend.

tommy: i'll take you to paris.

jamie: we came, we drank punch, we felt pains of alienation i think its time to go.

kat: jamie you cant come to a dance and not dance.

shay: why be normal when you can be exceptional together.

shay: rules are meant to be broken.

jude: they say the way you spend your birthday sets the tone for the entire year. i'd say i'm off to a great start.

georgia: it's like part-video launch party, part-birthday party, part-debutante ball.

kat: which 'us'? the one that you won't admit exists?

kat: hello? i was lying! Do you not speak 'girl' at all?!

jude: there's not one thing i would change about you.

quest: you let jude pilot your ride and i can barely scam shot gun.

tommy: the coolest chick i know, the girl that gets me is sixteen. she's out of bounds and i'm not that guy.

jude: i am an emotional adultress.

quest: pick up your jaw, man.

jude: it was a mistake, right. just a pity kiss. you dont feel the same way i do because i'm just a kid. just say it. just lie to me.

jude: getting dumped by a first boyfriend, always hurts. having the moment captured by tv cameras, feels a thousand times worst. sometimes being in the public eye means theres no safe place to hide. thats the thing about love. everytime you give a guy your heart, theres a chance he'll hand it back to you in pieces.

dad: you can't play hooky from your life.

dad: i wish i could protect you from this stuff. guys can be jerks.

dad:just bc your mother's away doesnt mean the rule went with her.

sadie: funny, bc i thought mom's rules were meant to be broken.

sadie: maybe if you werent so wrapped up in your own life, you'd already know.

Ej: never underestimate the power of pity.

georgia: you can write a song and tell the jerk that broke your heart exactly what you feel about it.

kat: okay, okay? or 'faking it thru the worst heartbreak of my life' okay?

jamie: speak of the copper tone devil.

jude: um, what part of 'i hate you right now' don't you understnad?

jude: i had a really great day tommy. a really great, great day. where people didnt hurt me everytime they opened their mouths.

georgia: she just had her hand handed to her on a stick. give her a break.

georgia: men. can't live with them. can't stuff them in your trunk.

mom: if shay was cheating on you, you're better off without him.

jude: but like his music he lacks staying power.

jude: picking a back up band to tour with is kinda like shopping for new best friends. you share the same kind of groove. you should look just a bit cooler when youre around them. and you should always want them close, but not that close. basically what you want in a band is what you want in your best friends: fun, dependability, and no surprises. did i say something about no surprises?

kat: you're clearly not fluent in 'girl speak'.

tommy: its classic female behavior. girls want what they cant have.

tommy: supposed to? you gotta want to be.

kat: look, i went into this knowing that i was number two. but i thought that maybe someday i could become number one. but i was wrong and that hurts, so much.

jude: it's a dirty little fact of life. we all have enemies. no matter who you are, there's someone out there who doesnt like you. i figure there are three basic types of enemies: those who were once your friend, those who will never be your friend, and those who come back to haunt you.

jamie: yeah well you wouldnt stick me with a shiv in the cafeteria line. kat, i'm not so sure about.

kat: jude, let me give you a bit of advice. friend to friend. go to hell.

jamie: easy there little lady, i assure you there was no hookage.

jude: thank you, you cradle robbin' boyfriend stealer.

tommy: its the same story. boy meets band. boy becomes big star in band. band wants to kill boy in his sleep.

tommy: thats the thing with feuds, jude. the longer you let them go, the worst they get.

jude: man, girls can hold grudges.

eden: if my music can save the world, i'm glad to help.

jude: i think i just threw up in my mouth.

tommy: the kids can help themselves. i'm going to kill chaz alot.

tommy: jude harrison. classic boyz-attacker.

eden: i'm sorry you're a played out rock cliche, and i'm really sorry about shay. i guess he likes his women to be well, women.

eden: you dated shay for like two months. i've had longer colds. geto ver it.

jude: the last days of recording an album are like the last days of summer camp. everyone's high on a dangerous cocktail of loopiness and exhaustion. the counselors are restless, everyone's sick of the food, more than a little smelly, and generally way past ready to get on the bus home. then you realize leaving camp means saying good bye and some people you cant imagine saying goodbye to... ever.

jude: but be warned quincy, you cant get rid of me that easy

kat: Dorky McBreak-my-heart. Jerky McAssface.

kat: speak of the dork.

darius: unlike your album, roses dont come in platinum.

tommy: you made me do taco commericals. you're not going to do the same thing to her.

quest: hey darius and charity are two words that dont go together.

kat: unless lame apologies are part of my physics paper, not interested.

quest: who are you? houdini?

jamie: i'm still the guy that went frog catching in grade four. glued your hands together in grade five.

kat: broke my heart in grade ten.

jamie: kat, knowing that you hate me breaks my heart, more than knowing that i broke yours.

darius: you walk out on that girl, you're making a big mistake.

darius: you got some beef with your past, you gotta let it go.

Jude: the last six months have been the strangest and best in my life. i got a chance to start living a dream. i fell in love twice. then got my heart broken twice. and then i learned that parents aren't perfect, that sisters can be your enemy and your friend, and that some friends can be your whole world. with people this great in your life you hold on tight and pray they'll never leave you, but sometimes you're the one that has to leave them. they say that life is a journey, the real questions isnt where you're going, it's who's coming with you.

mom: oh guess i'm not at the going rate for guit.

kat: it's time to carpe judem.

kat: i love you but shes going to break your heart, if you're lucky i might be there to put it back together.

jude: were you oign to tell me you're doing my sister?

sadie: what? you tripped and fell on my sister's lips? if i cant trust you, then i can't be with you.

jude: you dont get to tell me what to do right now, tommy. these past few weeks i let myself fall for you again. i thought you were falling back.

jamie: im not the boy next door anymore. i'm a man. i'm the man next door.

jamie: i need you to miss me. its the only way to make you figure out really what i mean to you. and its going to be good for us, because i may not know much but i know this.

jude: thats the thing about journeys. sometimes the only road to choose is your own.

Tommy: Look, working on a song... it's like falling in love. At first it's a rush, but then it gets painful and sometimes you gotta walk away. But sometimes you come out with something beautiful, like that song. I mean, change can be good, Jude. You want proof? Just listen. Don't quit. Cause you're it, girl. You're the real thing. You're even better.

Jamie: It's like we died and woke up in a Snoop Dogg video.

Jude: Tommy, what do the words “uniquely familiar” mean to you?
Tommy: They mean I’m a deliberately obscure sixteen year old music nerd.

Jamie: They’re not just evil, they’re accessorized!

Stuart: Well, that was the kiddy version. I don’t have to edit that stuff anymore, you’re eighteen years old. It’s time for you to go out in the world and have your own adventure.

Tommy: Tommy Q Invades School Girl’s Bathroom. Gonna read about that one tomorrow. You’re on in ten. You know at Christina Aguilera’s prom, the whole dance floor emptied when they played her song.
Jude: Great, I have to worry about my prom now?
Tommy: I’m just saying. I’ve played empty rooms before, every artist has.
Jude: This is not just another empty room Tommy, this is my school auditorium! I’m in front of my friends and cameras.
Tommy: I hate to break it to you Jude, but you are gonna face worse.
Jude: Ugh.
Tommy: Bad reviews, empty stadiums, canceled tours! I need to know that you can handle that.
Jude: Okay, tell me how do I not care what people think?
Tommy: By caring more about what you think! Don’t you ever ask anyone’s permission to like your own music, you understand? Do you love that song?

Tommy: Don’t you ever let your friends, or the crowd, tell you if it rocks. You go out there, and you tell them. I believe in you.

Jude: Georgia says even stars have to do this, demo their songs for radio programmers. Kinda like an amateur night competition with insanely high stakes. Sounds funny coming from the winner of a talent search but I hate competing. And that's what I hate most about competing, the part where you lose.

Jude: So tired for falling for guys who don't fall back. It hurts. You all say the nicest things. You're so great, you're so nice. But none of you want to date me. So you wanna help me Tommy, tell me what I do wrong. Tell me why I'm so easy to give up then maybe I can fix it.
