Macaroni and cheese is the food of the gods.
Sometimes people write the things they can't say.
Nathan, couples don't get married in high school. Its just, it's not normal.
I gave you my heart. That's all that I can give. And if that's not enough for you, then I'm not enough for you.
Nathan, it's hard enough for me to compete with all the girls at school. What, now I have to be a porn star?
They haven't invented words for how much I love you.
No, actually it's the 'my best friend is an idiot' issue and there you are!
I believe in true love. I believe in love at first sight. I believe love conquers all. And that doesn't mean there's not gonna be hard days or difficult things to deal with, because there will be. But finding that person who does it for you and knowing that person loves you back it just makes everything so much easier. "Peyton Sawyer will become Peyton Scott." That was the dream. And here we are 10 years later and we all get to witness today a dream come true.
Because this is a literature class. When archaeologists uncover lost civilizations and they unearth their worlds that have long been since been destroyed, you know what they find most often? They find stories, ancient languages, words, inscriptions from people who have been gone for thousand of years, because chances are, like you, they wanted to know, "Whats the point?" And they wanted us to know that they were here, you know? Like they told their stories, and they tried to make sense of their lives and their worlds and their tragedies. So that's what we are gonna do. So I want you to write something, anything at all, about Quentin Fields. If you knew him, write a favorite memory. If you didn't know him, write what you think the point is of all this for yourself and your life and your time here. This is a literature class and that's what writers do. We put pen to paper in times of devastating tragedy. And we try and make sense of it. Maybe we will find some clarity in some of those words. Maybe we will find peace.
You know what? Um... you guys asked me what the point was to all of this, school, literature... life. And, uh I said there was no point. And that's not true. What I should have said was, "I don't know". Because the truth is, not long ago, I sat where you are and wondered exactly the same things. When something that's tragic and evil and unexplainable happens, like losing someone forever... I still wonder, just like you do. Alright, everybody, get out a piece of paper and pen.
You know that romantic notion that all the garbage and the pain is really healing and beautiful and sort of poetic? It's not. It's just garbage and it's pain. You know what's better? Love. The day that you start thinking that love is overrated is the day that you're wrong. The only thing wrong with love and faith and belief is not having it.
Yeah, like you know maybe tonight we don't have to be married and pregnant. We can just be teenagers.
Oh, but we're not alone in my bedroom. We have the forefathers with us.
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.
You should buy 'em in bulk if you're gonna hand apologies out that often.
You know, for an hour you almost got me to believe that you're not a son of a bitch but, God, you fooled me again.
Yeah, this is my house. Um... we're staying here while we renovate the mansion.
The last time I was trapped in the school was the shooting. You know why Lindsay and I got so close? She was editing Lucas' book, and I still wasn't sure about her, 'cause I was rooting for Lucas to be with my friend Peyton, or maybe even Brooke. Anyway, she was working on the chapter about the shooting, and she said to me "I want this to be Lucas's best writing. The best he has in him, because Peyton deserves it. Jimmy and Keith deserve it, and that day deserves it." We've been friends ever since.
I think I'm realizing that I can't help everybody, and still somehow feel responsible. I don't know why I keep trying.
Are you going to say anything or are you just gonna sit there like you have for the past four months? You gonna get drunk, maybe pout, a little cry?
The rest of your life is a long time and whether you know it or not it's being shaped right now. You can choose to blame your circumstances on fate or bad luck or bad choices or you can fight back. Things aren't always going to be fair in the real world, that's just the way it is but for the most part you get what you give. Let me ask you all a question. What's worse: not getting everything you wished for or getting it but finding out it's not enough? The rest of your life is being shaped right now with the dreams you chase, the choices you make and the person you decide to be. The rest of your life is a long time and the rest of your life starts right now.
My best friend recently reminded me of a quote, by William Shakespeare,that seems appropriate. "There is a tide in the affairs of men, which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound up in sorrows and in miseries. On such a full sea, are we now afloat, and we must take the current when it serves or lose our ventures." I think that what that quote means is that life is short and, opportunities are rare, and we have to be vigilant in protecting them. And, not only the opportunities to succeed but, the opportunity to laugh, to see the enchantment in the world, and...to live, because life doesn't owe us anything. As a matter of fact, I think we owe something to the world. And, if we can just believe.. I'm sorry, I have more, I just, think I'm having my baby.
Honey, YOU'RE lucky that I'm pregnant!! I think its time you get your insecure, cheating, skank ass out of this house RIGHT NOW!
Don't play dumb ass with me girlie you stole those test, and I wanna know how you did it. Did you steal my keys while I was in the hospital. Yeah I bet you did, didn't you. You know I could have spent my time tutoring someone that actually needed it, but now I'm not gonna have that opportunity again thanks to you.
Your "Thank You's" send people to the free clinic.
Why is it that it's so much easier to forgive a stranger than someone you love?
Okay I'll go first. Hi my name's Rachel and I'm a dumb ass who's failing calculus and really likes to hit on married guys.
If you're looking for a black eye, it's in my fist.
Please, your thank you's send people to the free clinic.
Don't say I never gave you anything.
It is not possible to be this in love ...
But God help you if you don't change.
What'd you say to Hooter girl when she made her topless debut?
OK. You know the moment that I left the tour?...We were playing this club in Illinois... and Chris decides to do a cover of an eighties song called, um, 'Missing You'... and everybody starts singing along, the crowds loving it and they turn the house lights up pause and I could see every face out there... and I... fell apart. On stage, in front of three thousand people; I lost it. I couldn't sing, I couldn't hear the music. Nothing. Because... that was the moment that I knew... that none of it could ever be enough without you. All of the celebrity and all of the applause and all the pretty melodies... couldn't fill your void in my heart. So... yeah, I guess you're right; it's not the life I would've had... 'cuz ever since I met you, it has been so much more.
Never expected the cheerleading squad to have more drama than the drama club.
Yeah, if okay's, like, heels that are killing me and underwear that's digging into my ribcage and I'm about five minutes from going home and binging on cookie dough.
I'm usually one of those people who likes the fist day of school. You know, new pens; new book; new backpack.
Nathan, there wasn't a moment that my heart wasn't in Tree Hill.
This year I got everything I wanted and everything I wished for. But in a way, I lost even more.
The big deal is that, first of all, you did not thank me for helping you with the CDs, second of all, you had sex in my bed, and third, you ate all the brownies.
Well you know I said tonight was educational. Well, Honey, you're gonna love the homework.
Alright. I'm off. All the important numbers are by the phone... police, fire, pimps.
Yeah, but if you keep yelling, the freaking zombies are gonna get us.
If your tongue comes anywhere near my mouth, I'm just never speaking to you again, though.
Let's find out. Knowledge is power.
I think you're really brave to reconsider building who you are. I don't know if I could do that.
If my parents come home, I'm going to act like I have amnesia, so don't freak out if I pretend not to know you.
So ... support me! When I'm tutoring someone, and they get it, and that light goes on, I feel good! I feel worthy. The same way that you feel when you play basketball. Besides, having things gotten better for you? The team's left you alone, the hazings stopped? Yeah. So, that's worth the risk for me. What's not worth the risk is us. We're friends, and that is important to me.
She doesn't want to go. She doesn't want to see her high school sweetheart slash your brother Dan slash the jerk who abandoned Lucas slash the father of Nathan, the team's star player slash my wrists if I hear this story again. Let's go.
My mom sat me down a long time ago and asked me if I was more afraid of getting Herpes or pregnant.
I said "I haven't even kissed a boy, I'm only seven"
Just promise me this time, you'll be here when I get back.
Yeah, at least now the whole world knows all the nice things you said about me to go along all the crappy things Nathan said about me.
Loving it again, of you seeing me love it again. I just, I'm afraid your going to think that it somehow means that I love you less.
You should have told me that having sex turns you into an ass.
Your future as a basketball player is totally secure, your future as my husband, not so much.
Nathan, it's been said that there's one word that will free us from the weight and the pain of life, and that word is love, and I believe that. That doesn't mean that it hasn't been hard, or that it won't be. It just means that, I found a stillness and bravery in myself with you. You make me brave, and I will love you until the end of time. This I vow today.
You ruined everything. You caused a huge scene at the reception. You stole the limo. And now everybody's life is worse because of you. Doesn't it even matter to you, a little bit? Are you going to change a single thing because of it? Nathan doesn't need your thanks and neither do I. So why don't you stay the hell away from us. All of us!
I need you on this planet. You are not invincible.
For all I care you can go to hell but you cannot take Nathan with you.
Who are you kidding Deb? Junkies don't save pills.
What? What is this? The number of men who fathered your baby?
Pot! I have to go throw up.
Now they said they represent the lollipop guild. Do you think that’s a trade union and if it is, why did they unionize it? Did they need shorter hours or longer sticks or different flavors? Look at their little suits, it crack me up.
It’s your turn to be the girl that gets the baby and the boy.
He is the healthiest looking dying man I have ever seen.
Do you think there’s such a thing as a sugar hangover?
When archaeologists uncover lost civilizations and they unearth these worlds that have long since been destroyed, you know what they find most often? They find stories: ancient languages, words, inscriptions from people who have been gone for thousands of years. Because chances are they, like you, they wanted to know, what's the point? And they wanted us to know that they were here, you know? They told their stories and they tried to make sense out of their lives and their worlds and their tragedies. So that's what we're gonna do. I want you to write something - anything at all - about Quentin Fields. If you knew him, write a favorite memory. If you didn't know him, write what you think the point is of all this for yourself and your life and your time here. This is a literature class, and that's what writers do. We put pen to paper in times of devastating tragedy, we just try to make sense of it. Maybe we'll find clarity in some of those words. Maybe we'll find peace.
Don't wait. Life’s too short to play games. If you love someone and want to be with them then go get them. Deal with the mess later. You don't know what tomorrow will bring.
The next time you want to lie to me about something, you should make sure your mom is in on it.

One Tree Hill: Nathan Scott
And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But losing your reason for the journey... is a fate more cruel.
There's going to be lot of times in your life when you are afraid. Being afraid is okay, but if you don't work through that fear, you might miss out on some pretty great things.
Stepping up. It's a simple concept. It basically means to rise above yourself. To do a little more. To show you something special. Something like this...Life's funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard, like when you fall in love with someone and they forget to fall in love back. Like when your best friend and your boyfriend leave you alone. Like when you pull the trigger or light the flame and you can't take it back. Like I said, in sports they call this stepping up. In life I call it pushing back.
It’s been said that we just don’t recognize the significant moments of our lives while they’re happening. We grow up replacing them with ideas or people and we take them for granted. And it’s usually no until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you realize how wrong you’ve been, that you realize how much you really need it, how much you love it. God I love this game.
Have 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 about themselves. Sometimes they surprise you. Sometime they fall short. Life is funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard. But if you look close enough you find hope. And in the words of children, in the bars of a 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.
I scored 35 points that night and each basket was like my own personal version of a Haley James pick-up line.
When I was a Junior, in High school I took some stuff to help me with my game, drugs and it was a stupid thing to do. I ended up collapsing on the court and my Dad was all about covering it up for the scouts. Anyway when I left the hospital I went to see Haley because I needed to know if she could forgive me, I wanted to see if I still had the chance to be great in her eyes, and when she did, when she forgave me- that was the moment that everything changed for me. That was the moment that I fell in love with her. This girl who could see past all the mistakes I have made. Now, I guess maybe sometimes I screw up because I want to feel that again. I suppose that sounds pretty broken...
I'm not good with being vulnerable, in fact this is probably the closest I've come to it, or the second closest.
Give me the bottle Luke, or Dan wont be the only Scott who shot his brother.
Do you have a wife, Principal Turner? Isn't she the best part of you? Would you want her to pay for your mistakes? We all make mistakes. And, believe me, I'm paying for mine, but - Haley is a good person. She's worked for four years to be valedictorian. She deserves to be recognized.
I need to be tutored, I think I'm failing marriage.
I just got that feeling. The stillness I used to feel before dawn. The feeling that the world could be perfect.
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 find hope in the words of children, in the bars of a song and in the eyes of someone you love. And if you're lucky, and if you're the luckiest person on this entire planet, the person you love decides to love you back.
You can't prove love with a test. I mean, this is just a score on a sheet of paper. Sure, Haley and I have our differences, but this test doesn't show how hard we've worked to keep this relationship together, or that I can't stand it when we're apart, or that every time I look at her I know that I'm gonna be with her for the rest of my life. We love each other father, no test is going to show that.
You call this breaking even?! You just got me attacked by a munchkin and a transvestite.
It's hard to get back into the ring, especially with the one who knocked you out in the first place.
Besides, what's the difference, you turn the lights out, it's all the same darkness.
We should have a Scott family discount.
Unlike you I'm leaving and taking my heart with me.
And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But losing your reason for the journey...is a fate more cruel.
As far as I concerned, Shaw was a punk. 'Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No, I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure your still alive. Because you are. And that pain you feel? That's life. The confusion and fear? That's there to remind you, that somewhere out there is something better, and that something is worth fighting for.
Douglas Adams once wrote, he felt that his whole life was some kind of dream, and he sometimes wondered who's it was, and whether they were enjoying it.
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 anyone.
If more teachers dressed like sluts, attendance in this place would skyrocket.
Don't cry rockstar. It'll ruin your makeup.
You see, you do have a problem with me; a big problem! You could smile and act cool if you want to but the fact is, man: I used to destroy guys like you. Daily. It'd be a shame if something happened to this hand; you couldn't play that little guitar anymore huh? Just like it'd be a shame if you were taking advantage of Haley. Don't cry rock star.. ruin your make-up.
I can't believe that I'm wearing a skirt!
Good evening Mr. or Mrs. Tree Hill resident. We are selling these delicious cookies to raise money for Lady Leprechauns, an organization that empowers us girls to be strong, beautiful women of tomorrow.
You know, my pride says, "Yeah. that's it. Just leave here knowing Haley is obviously intimidated by a sexual relationship." But my heart says, "Forget about your pride, you idiot. You love this girl. And even if you catch pneumonia, your ass is gonna stay out here in the rain until you convince her to come back" So come on, Hales. Just meet me halfway here?
Haley, you got a tattoo for God's sake. Obviously, this whole thing with us means a lot to you. I just don't want to do anything to pressure you or drive you away. Even though sometimes I can't help it. Just like I can't help that I fell in love with you. 'Cause I did. I love you, Haley. And it scares me a little bit, but there it is.
It's like the worse things get with my parents, the better things get with you.
I wanna be somebody who's good enough to be seen with you.
I'll call you when you're not so PMS.
Whatever choice you make today is going to affect the rest of your life.
So don't come home, because I don't want you to.
Help from you comes with strings attached.
History is on my side.
Sometimes what you call "everything," I call "nothing."
You know for most of my life I would have gone through this alone, but then I met you. And I finally found someone I could depend on like I've got this. So I guess I called you 'cause I wanted to know if that was still there.
Consider that me hitting you, without the hitting.
You kissed my wife, you lost all my money, you lied to me about a poker game and you got me attacked by a munchkin and a transvestite...
The best pick you made all night.
When I fell to the floor tonight, I was so scared, I was so terrified. Then I saw you, and I promised myself that if I could just get up, I'd walk over to you... I'd tell you how much I need you and how much I want you... and how nothing else matters.
I wanna be somebody who's good enough to be seen with you.
Trust me, you're better off anyways. Love sucks.
I remember the ugly-ass poncho that you wore.
It's not so easy getting back in the ring. Especially with the one who knocked you out in the first place.
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.
Evening officer, buy us some beer?
[from the time capsule] People think that if you love somebody hard enough then everything is just gonna work out. People are wrong. 50 years from now, I hope you got what you wanted Haley, but getting married to you was the worst mistake of my life. Here's a little advice, never get married. In the end, you're only be miserable.
Over the past year I've learned so much about life and love. And even if I could, I wouldn't take back all the bad stuff that's happened between us, 'cause it brought us here, this moment, this river. Marry me, Haley. Marry me again in front of all our friends and our family.
You ever heard the expression 'The best things in live 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.
Last year we were sitting on the beach and I told you how much I love you, and how I would always, always protect you. And that day you made me believe that this would work. But I don't think anybody understood the love that I have for you, because if they did then they would have never doubted us. So I wanted to marry you all over again in front of most of our world, because today when I look into your eyes, my love for you only grows. It's even stronger now. And our love will never waver. This I vow to you, today and always, and forever.
I am the kid, Hales and I'm sick of dealing with my parents' problems. If it's not my dad with a restraining order, it's my mom with a glock. They're unbelievable. My one saving grace. My one way out is if I play halfway decent in these playoffs, I can get a scholarship and I can get the hell away from both of these lunatics. Should my mom have a gun? No! But am I going to let her stupidity or anything else stand in the way of my dreams? Not a chance.
I'm warning you. It's either the pills or me.
I don't like kids. But I'll like our kid.
Well there's probably worse things than hitting a pregnant woman. Good slap though.
You made a fortune capitalizing on the murder of your own brother. You save your help for people who don’t know you and stay the hell away from me and my family.
Really? From of the looks of it this morning, you were on something else.
Is this the support group for husbands of James girls?
As mush as it killed me, I let her go, but I never gave up hope.
You know I don’t want to kill the messenger Mouth, but every time I see you that leads to bad news.
It’s amazing. The economy is crumbling and the truth keeps getting more expensive.
I lost my virginity to my sister in law. Don’t you think that makes Thanksgiving a little awkward.
I guess evil does the body good.
Interesting choice for the poster of redemption and clean living.
I’m kinda thinking you should cancel your plane ride to ask Lucas, too.
You know, there’s never going to be a golden ticket back into my life. I’ll tolerate you, for Jamie. But you’re dead to me. The moment Keith died, you died.
I’m not really sure Grandma Rachel was friends with anyone.
When you and dad retire my high school class I’m sure I could rummage through my middle school class.
Give me that bottle right now or Dan's not going to be the only Scott to kill his brother.
I've always wondered about it. We all do, right. What happens when it's gone? But see I've never really seen anybody lose it, like really lose it, until now.
There's more to life than sports, trust me.
Nathan: My father’s in prison, so am I.
Haley: Well, you can walk out.
I scored 35 points that night and each basket was like my own personal version of a Haley James pick-up line.
You're responsible for changing my whole like. Thank you for saying yes, Lydia. Don't ever forget that.
Hey man, I never touched you. And if I’ve had hit you, you’d be out cold right now.
There's going to be lot of times in your life when you are afraid. Being afraid is okay, but if you don't work through that fear, you might miss out on some pretty great things.

So don't come home, because I don't want you to.
Help from you comes with strings attached.
History is on my side.
Sometimes what you call "everything," I call "nothing."
You know for most of my life I would have gone through this alone, but then I met you. And I finally found someone I could depend on like I've got this. So I guess I called you 'cause I wanted to know if that was still there.
Consider that me hitting you, without the hitting.
You kissed my wife, you lost all my money, you lied to me about a poker game and you got me attacked by a munchkin and a transvestite...
The best pick you made all night.
When I fell to the floor tonight, I was so scared, I was so terrified. Then I saw you, and I promised myself that if I could just get up, I'd walk over to you... I'd tell you how much I need you and how much I want you... and how nothing else matters.
I wanna be somebody who's good enough to be seen with you.
Trust me, you're better off anyways. Love sucks.
I remember the ugly-ass poncho that you wore.
It's not so easy getting back in the ring. Especially with the one who knocked you out in the first place.
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.
Evening officer, buy us some beer?
[from the time capsule] People think that if you love somebody hard enough then everything is just gonna work out. People are wrong. 50 years from now, I hope you got what you wanted Haley, but getting married to you was the worst mistake of my life. Here's a little advice, never get married. In the end, you're only be miserable.
Over the past year I've learned so much about life and love. And even if I could, I wouldn't take back all the bad stuff that's happened between us, 'cause it brought us here, this moment, this river. Marry me, Haley. Marry me again in front of all our friends and our family.
You ever heard the expression 'The best things in live 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.
Last year we were sitting on the beach and I told you how much I love you, and how I would always, always protect you. And that day you made me believe that this would work. But I don't think anybody understood the love that I have for you, because if they did then they would have never doubted us. So I wanted to marry you all over again in front of most of our world, because today when I look into your eyes, my love for you only grows. It's even stronger now. And our love will never waver. This I vow to you, today and always, and forever.
I am the kid, Hales and I'm sick of dealing with my parents' problems. If it's not my dad with a restraining order, it's my mom with a glock. They're unbelievable. My one saving grace. My one way out is if I play halfway decent in these playoffs, I can get a scholarship and I can get the hell away from both of these lunatics. Should my mom have a gun? No! But am I going to let her stupidity or anything else stand in the way of my dreams? Not a chance.
I'm warning you. It's either the pills or me.
I don't like kids. But I'll like our kid.
Well there's probably worse things than hitting a pregnant woman. Good slap though.
You made a fortune capitalizing on the murder of your own brother. You save your help for people who don’t know you and stay the hell away from me and my family.
Really? From of the looks of it this morning, you were on something else.
Is this the support group for husbands of James girls?
As mush as it killed me, I let her go, but I never gave up hope.
You know I don’t want to kill the messenger Mouth, but every time I see you that leads to bad news.
It’s amazing. The economy is crumbling and the truth keeps getting more expensive.
I lost my virginity to my sister in law. Don’t you think that makes Thanksgiving a little awkward.
I guess evil does the body good.
Interesting choice for the poster of redemption and clean living.
I’m kinda thinking you should cancel your plane ride to ask Lucas, too.
You know, there’s never going to be a golden ticket back into my life. I’ll tolerate you, for Jamie. But you’re dead to me. The moment Keith died, you died.
I’m not really sure Grandma Rachel was friends with anyone.
When you and dad retire my high school class I’m sure I could rummage through my middle school class.
Give me that bottle right now or Dan's not going to be the only Scott to kill his brother.
I've always wondered about it. We all do, right. What happens when it's gone? But see I've never really seen anybody lose it, like really lose it, until now.
There's more to life than sports, trust me.
Nathan: My father’s in prison, so am I.
Haley: Well, you can walk out.
I scored 35 points that night and each basket was like my own personal version of a Haley James pick-up line.
You're responsible for changing my whole like. Thank you for saying yes, Lydia. Don't ever forget that.
Hey man, I never touched you. And if I’ve had hit you, you’d be out cold right now.
One Tree Hill: Lucas Scott
Lucas's wedding toast
Remember tonight for it is the beginning of always. A promise. A belief in each other and a possibility of love. A decision to ignore and rise simply about the past. A covenant that binds two souls together. A celebration of the chance taken and of what lies ahead. But two will always be stronger than one. Tonight is, more formally, promises made long go in the safety of our hearts.
[voiceover] You ever take a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background. It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other people's lives have you 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 it? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. And think, you could be a big part of someone else's life, and not ever know it.
You're destined for greatness and it starts tomorrow morning.
When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me. It's you. It's you Peyton.
The darkness doesn't have any answers.
[voiceover] There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days.
[voiceover] As happens sometimes a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. And then the moment was gone.
[voiceover] Ida Scott Taylor once wrote: Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering.
[voiceover] Joseph Conrad once wrote: Who knows what true happiness is? Not the conventional word, but the naked terror. To the lonely themselves, it wears a mask. The most miserable outcast hugs some memory. Or some illusion.
[voiceover] Sometimes when you look back at your life certain moments stand out: the day you graduated high school, your wedding day, the day you found out you were going to be a father. Most of the time they happen in that order. Most of the time.
Most of the time, love doesn't really need words.
[voiceover] Sometimes when you're young you think nothing can hurt you. It's like being invincible. Your whole life is ahead of you and you have big plans. Big Plans. To find your perfect match, the one who 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 where simply plans. Because at the end when you're looking back instead of forward you want to believe you made the most of what life gave you. You want to believe you're leaving something good behind. You want it all to have mattered.
[voiceover] Albert Camus once wrote "Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken." But I wonder if there's no breaking then there's no healing, and if there's no healing then there's no learning. And if there's no learning then there's no struggle. But struggle is a part of life. So must all hearts be broken?
My father abandoned my mother when she was pregnant with me. He left us to struggle on our own, even though he was a man of means. Growing up, I only had one person to look after me, Keith Scott. And this man killed him. His own brother, in cold blood at point-blank range. Next week, I'm getting married. Keith would have been my best man. But he's not gonna be there, just like he didn't see my state championship or see my first novel published. Dan took all that. And he did it with malice and premeditation. Dan is an educated man and if he is nothing, he's very persuasive. Do not let him fool you. He has a very dark and ugly heart. And he should never be allowed to walk the streets a free man.
[voiceover] Suddenly it was as if the roar of the crowd, the echo of the final buzzers, the cheers of my teammates were all sounding from 1,000 miles away, and what remained in that bizarre, muffled silence was only Peyton. The girl whose art, passion, and beauty had changed my life. In that moment, my triumph was not a state championship, but simple clarity. The realization that we had always been meant for each other and every instinct to the contrary had simply been a denial of the following truth - I was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer.
[voiceover] Much as some of us fight it, our parents have a mystical hold over us, the power to affect our thoughts and emotions the way only they can. It's a bond that changes over time, but doesn't diminish, even if they're half a world away, or in another world entirely. It's a power we never fully understand. We're left only to wonder that when our time comes, what kind of hold will we have on our children?
MAYBE YOU SHOULD TELL THE TRUTH WHEN I HAVE A GUN POINTED AT YOUR HEAD!
[voiceover] Truth is still absolute. Believe that. Even when that truth is hard and cold, and more painful than you've ever imagined. And even when truth is more cruel than any lie.
[voiceover] Sometimes I wonder if anything's absolute anymore. Is There Still right and wrong? Good and bad? Truth and lies? Or is everything negotiable, left to interpretation, grey. Sometimes we're forced to bend the truth, transform it, cause we're faced with things that are not of our own making. And sometimes things simply catch up to us.
[voiceover] William Blake once wrote: "There are things that are known and things that are unknown. And in between, there are doors".
[voiceover] If you could go back and just change one thing about your life, would you? And if you did, would that change make your life better? Or would that change ultimately break your heart? Or break the heart of another? Would you choose an entirely different path? Or would you change just one thing? Just one moment. One moment that you've always wanted back.
I think everybody feels that way sometimes. You know like people don't see them for who they really are. It's not just you.
[voiceover] Have you ever had a dream that seemed so real when you woke up you didn't know what to believe? What would you do if what you thought was true wasn't, and what you thought wasn't true was. Would you retreat into your dreams with the hope of finding a more perfect reality? Sometimes life is stranger than a dream, and the only way to wake up is to face what lies are hidden in your soul. And you can only hope that in those moments of dark reflection, that you are not alone.
You mean when you didn't kiss me on the quad or when you said dreams are e-mails from ghosts.
[voiceover] 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.
[voiceover] 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 we let down a friend. Some of us escape the pains 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 ways. But our biggest regrets are not for the things we did... but the things we didn't do. The things we didn't say that could save someone we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that's headed their way.
'Cause it's who I am - and you need to be who you are.
[voiceover] When life comes at you out of the darkness, who will you choose to face it with? Will they be wise? Will their love for you help them to lead you to the light, or will they lose their way in the darkness? Will they make noble choices, or will that person be someone untested, someone new? Life comes rushing at you from out of the darkness. And when it does, is there someone you can depend on when it does?
[voiceover] 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 fears bravely or move forward with faith? Or will you succumb to the darkness in your soul?
[voiceover] 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 the path while others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be honored by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or to simply give up.
You told me to fight for you and I did. But, you never fought for me.
What leg were you shot in when you kissed Chris Keller?
[voiceover] 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 that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the HEARTACHE and fear of what life has.
[voiceover] But once in a while people push on to something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. Or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quite persistence of a dream.
[voiceover] There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a road map. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.
voiceover] My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. I play basketball -- at least I used to. I have a girlfriend -- at least I used to. And I have a best friend. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world, maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their place. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling's a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes. Someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won't always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you.
[voiceover] Peyton Sawyer is a good friend. Brooke Davis is my girlfriend. At least, for now she is.
[voiceover] Things that take 14 minutes - boiling an ostrich egg, Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video. It also takes 14 minutes to get from the Melina bridge to Tree Hill hospital.
[voiceover] My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world. Maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Or someone like my best friend, Haley. If you're married, a senior in high school, and not sure if your husband is still alive, then I'd say your world is a lot like Haley's. Today was supposed to be the best day of her life. But it's amazing how things can change in the blink of an eye. Or, in this case, in 29 minutes.
I need you to trust me and believe me when I tell you that my heart is with you. Part of me feels like ever since we got back together you've been waiting, waiting to push me away.
[voiceover] Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred. How did it find us? Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us? That we now send our children out into the world like we send young men to war, hoping for their safe return but knowing that some will be lost along the way. When did we lose our way? Consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness. Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?
[voiceover] Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a 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.
Because, you kink your eyebrow when you're trying to be cute. Because you quote Camus even though I've never actually seen you read. Because you miss your parents, but you'll never admit that! And because I've given exactly two of these embarrassing speeches in my life, and they've both been with you. I mean, that's gotta mean something right?! And because we're both gonna get pneumonia, but if you need to hear why I love you, I can go on all night.
If you're always looking for reasons not to be with somebody, well you'll always find them, and I guess at some point you should let go and give your heart what it deserves.
[voiceover] H.L. Mencken wrote, "Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit upon his hands,hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."
[voiceover] Scott Taylor Idus once wrote: Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone. And do not trouble about the future for it is yet to come. Live in the present and make it so beautiful, that it will be worth remembering.
[voiceover] Robert Louis Stevenson once said, "You cannot run away from a weakness; you must sometimes fight it out or perish. And if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?"
[voiceover] Blaise Pascal once said: "The heart has reasons that reason cannot know."
You know if I ever met the devil, I figured she be hot and holding a basketball.
[voiceover] Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeoning of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
- Invictus, William Ernest Henley
[voiceover] Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote, 'There is no privacy that cannot be penetrated. No secret can be kept in the civilized world. Society is a masked ball where everyone hides his real character, then reveals it by hiding.
[voiceover] Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote: "All are architects of fate... so look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again."
[voiceover] Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote: 'All are architects of fate... living in these walls of time.'
[voiceover] Henry David Thoreau once wrote, "Live each season as it passes. Breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, but resign yourself to the influences of each."
[voiceover] Tennessee Williams once wrote: We all live in a house of fire. No fire department to call. No way out. Just the upstairs window to look out of while the fire burns down the house...with us trapped, locked in it.
[voiceover] Shaw was right. As we strain to gasp the things we desire the things we think will make our lives better: money, popularity, fame... we ignore what truly matters ... the simple things... like friendship, family, love. The things we probably already had.
[voiceover] And Hansel said to Gretel: Let us drop these bread crumbs so that together we can find our way home. Because losing our way would be the most cruel of things. This year I lost my way.
[voiceover] Stephen King once wrote: Time takes it all. Whether you want it to or not. Time takes it all, time bears it away, and in the end, there is only darkness. Sometimes we find others in that darkness. And sometimes we lose them there again.
[voiceover] Charles Bukowski once wrote: There will always be something to ruin our lives. It all depends on what or which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.
[voiceover] Khalil Gibran once wrote: Your reason and your passion are the rudder and sails of your seafaring soul. If either be broken, you can but toss and drift or else be held at a standstill in mid-seas. For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining. And passion, unattended is a flame that burns to its own destruction.
[time capsule] My best friend, Haley, left town recently. And it's.. been hard. You know, until this year, it's... it's always been us against the world. We pretty much grew up together and.. now she's just gone. You know, I.. I understand the leaving part. Trust me, I just wish she woulda called me; before she left. I wish.. I coulda talked to her about it. I mean, not to change her mind.. or to tell her what to do, but.. just to say I love you... and I miss you. Just to say goodbye. My brother's been going through a tough time lately. I wish there was more I could do to help him. I mean, just getting along is kinda new to us. But I guess that's how brothers are. Better to each other and worse to each other than anybody else. I also wish I could make things easier for my mom. I mean, even though it's been a tough year for us, I want her to be happy more than anything. But that doesn't change the fact that I need to get closer to my father because if I can get closer to him, maybe I can find a way to beat him. Once and for all - set the people that I love free. I just hope I have the strength to tear him down for good.
[voiceover] Octavio Paz once wrote: Solitude is the profoundest fact of the human condition. Man is the only being who knows he is alone.
[voiceover] Tennessee Williams once wrote: When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.
[voiceover] Nathaniel Hawthorne once wrote: No man, for any considerable period can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true.
[voiceover] Oliver Wendell Holmes once said: Many people die with their music still in them. Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.
[voiceover] Katherine Anne Porter once said: There seems to be a kind of order in the universe in the movement of the stars and in 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 rights and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and his own.
Yeah. You see, then a funny thing happened; Haley. She showed me that you can find the good in everybody, if you just give them a chance. The benefit of the doubt. Sometimes, people disappoint you. Sometimes they surprise you. But you never really get to know them ... until you listen for what's in their hearts and that's what Haley did with Nathan. That's what we should do for them. So for you skeptics out there, prepare to be surprised. So this is to my ... brother and my little sis in-law, and in love.
[voiceover] T.H. White said: Perhaps we all give the best of our hearts uncritically to those who hardly think about us in return.
[voiceover] Some people believe that ravens guide travelers to their destinations. Others believe that the sight of a solitary raven is considered good luck while more than one raven together predicts trouble ahead.
[voiceover] What a frightening thing the human is, a mass of gauges and dials and registers, and we can read only a few and those perhaps not accurately.
[voiceover] As happens sometimes, a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. Then gradually time awakened again and moved sluggishly on.
Hey. So I saw Nathan in the shower. Yeah, no wonder you broke up with him.
Uh ... beware of crazy ladies who talk to dresses?
[voiceover] John Steinbeck once wrote "It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live for our death brings no pleasure on the world."
[voiceover] E.E. Cummings once wrote; To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. It is yours.
Your art matters. That's what got me here.
[voiceover] There is a tide in the affairs of men, which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune but omitted, and the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat and we must take the current when it serves or lose the ventures before us. -Julius Caeser
You ever have something that you knew that you were better at than... almost anybody else?
Why are you a cheerleader? I mean, no offense or anything, but you're about the least cheery person I know. ... Come on, let me give you a ride. I'll let you insult me.
Is that the 'why do i hang out with these people?' issue, because you're on the cover of that, right?
No foul, basket counts. Besides, you won't score again.
And the way I see it, Skills would be a better father than Dan ever was.
It's funny, you know all these years we called him Skills, I always thought it had something to do with basketball.
Peyton, I hate you. I wish you'd never came back. You ruined my life.
Yeah. You ever wake up from a really good dream, and try to get back to sleep? Or you got the flu, and you promise yourself you will appreciate normal so much more, if you can just get back to it? That's the way I feel. I just want things to go back to the way they were.
[voice-over] Do not let your fire go out... spark by irreplaceable spark... in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish... in lonley frustration for the life you deserved... but never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists, it is real. It is possible. It is yours.
[Ayn Rand]
I didn't want to be like him and I was afraid that I'd become him if I played. In the gym, I felt like he had a piece of me. I never felt like that on the playground.
Don't live your life alone. Let us in.
Brooke, seeing you like this makes, "the sun go down in my heart."
[voiceover] William Shakespeare wrote; 'Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds. It is an ever fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken. Love alters not with time's brief hours and weeks, but bears it out even to the edge of doom’.
The last time I gave a speech about Nathan and Haley was, well at their first reception. I remember saying, 'Prepare to be surprised.' Well, I have to say even I was surprised; because, you see they do something that's very rare to see in someone our age. Actually, it's very rare to see in anybody; they give their hearts to each other, unconditionally. And, that's what true love really is. It's not this fairytale life that never knows pain, but it's two souls facing it together and diminishing it with unconditional love. To Nathan and Haley Scott.
[voiceover] At this moment there are six billion, five hundred and two million, eight hundred and sixty seven thousand, one hundred and twenty people in the world, give or take a few and sometimes all you need is one. For better or for worse.
[voiceover] Dan Scott is many things: the mayor of Tree Hill, the once great height school basketball player and Nathan's father. He's also my father, but he never claimed me. Believe it or not, I got the better end of the deal. I was instead raised by my mom with the help of my Uncle Keith, until Keith's life was taken.
[Thinking] I guess I should've said something... anything... I mean, for a guy who wants to be a writer, it suddenly seemed like no words had ever been written. But when someone tells you that they somehow stopped missing you, you're pretty much screwed, no matter what you say.
But to have it halfway is harder than not having it at all.
My confession is that I’m sometimes selfish. I don’t always give back as much as I get.
Clearly a rookie, mom. Next time, try sneaking through the window.
Whatever you think... I really do care about you, Peyton.
Chapter three. Peyton Sawyer is destined for greatness. Actually she’s already great. Because Peyton has a thing called integrity. And nothing or no one is ever going to change that. I remember the first time I met her.
Remember tonight for it is the beginning of always. A promise. A belief in each other and a possibility of love. A decision to ignore and rise simply about the past. A covenant that binds two souls together. A celebration of the chance taken and of what lies ahead. But two will always be stronger than one. Tonight is, more formally, promises made long go in the safety of our hearts.
[voiceover] You ever take a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background. It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other people's lives have you 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 it? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. And think, you could be a big part of someone else's life, and not ever know it.
You're destined for greatness and it starts tomorrow morning.
When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me. It's you. It's you Peyton.

Most of the time, love doesn't really need words.
[voiceover] Sometimes when you're young you think nothing can hurt you. It's like being invincible. Your whole life is ahead of you and you have big plans. Big Plans. To find your perfect match, the one who 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 where simply plans. Because at the end when you're looking back instead of forward you want to believe you made the most of what life gave you. You want to believe you're leaving something good behind. You want it all to have mattered.
[voiceover] Albert Camus once wrote "Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken." But I wonder if there's no breaking then there's no healing, and if there's no healing then there's no learning. And if there's no learning then there's no struggle. But struggle is a part of life. So must all hearts be broken?
My father abandoned my mother when she was pregnant with me. He left us to struggle on our own, even though he was a man of means. Growing up, I only had one person to look after me, Keith Scott. And this man killed him. His own brother, in cold blood at point-blank range. Next week, I'm getting married. Keith would have been my best man. But he's not gonna be there, just like he didn't see my state championship or see my first novel published. Dan took all that. And he did it with malice and premeditation. Dan is an educated man and if he is nothing, he's very persuasive. Do not let him fool you. He has a very dark and ugly heart. And he should never be allowed to walk the streets a free man.
[voiceover] Suddenly it was as if the roar of the crowd, the echo of the final buzzers, the cheers of my teammates were all sounding from 1,000 miles away, and what remained in that bizarre, muffled silence was only Peyton. The girl whose art, passion, and beauty had changed my life. In that moment, my triumph was not a state championship, but simple clarity. The realization that we had always been meant for each other and every instinct to the contrary had simply been a denial of the following truth - I was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer.
[voiceover] Much as some of us fight it, our parents have a mystical hold over us, the power to affect our thoughts and emotions the way only they can. It's a bond that changes over time, but doesn't diminish, even if they're half a world away, or in another world entirely. It's a power we never fully understand. We're left only to wonder that when our time comes, what kind of hold will we have on our children?
MAYBE YOU SHOULD TELL THE TRUTH WHEN I HAVE A GUN POINTED AT YOUR HEAD!
[voiceover] Truth is still absolute. Believe that. Even when that truth is hard and cold, and more painful than you've ever imagined. And even when truth is more cruel than any lie.
[voiceover] Sometimes I wonder if anything's absolute anymore. Is There Still right and wrong? Good and bad? Truth and lies? Or is everything negotiable, left to interpretation, grey. Sometimes we're forced to bend the truth, transform it, cause we're faced with things that are not of our own making. And sometimes things simply catch up to us.
[voiceover] William Blake once wrote: "There are things that are known and things that are unknown. And in between, there are doors".
[voiceover] If you could go back and just change one thing about your life, would you? And if you did, would that change make your life better? Or would that change ultimately break your heart? Or break the heart of another? Would you choose an entirely different path? Or would you change just one thing? Just one moment. One moment that you've always wanted back.
I think everybody feels that way sometimes. You know like people don't see them for who they really are. It's not just you.
[voiceover] Have you ever had a dream that seemed so real when you woke up you didn't know what to believe? What would you do if what you thought was true wasn't, and what you thought wasn't true was. Would you retreat into your dreams with the hope of finding a more perfect reality? Sometimes life is stranger than a dream, and the only way to wake up is to face what lies are hidden in your soul. And you can only hope that in those moments of dark reflection, that you are not alone.
You mean when you didn't kiss me on the quad or when you said dreams are e-mails from ghosts.
[voiceover] 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.
[voiceover] 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 we let down a friend. Some of us escape the pains 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 ways. But our biggest regrets are not for the things we did... but the things we didn't do. The things we didn't say that could save someone we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that's headed their way.
'Cause it's who I am - and you need to be who you are.
[voiceover] When life comes at you out of the darkness, who will you choose to face it with? Will they be wise? Will their love for you help them to lead you to the light, or will they lose their way in the darkness? Will they make noble choices, or will that person be someone untested, someone new? Life comes rushing at you from out of the darkness. And when it does, is there someone you can depend on when it does?
[voiceover] 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 fears bravely or move forward with faith? Or will you succumb to the darkness in your soul?
[voiceover] 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 the path while others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be honored by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or to simply give up.
You told me to fight for you and I did. But, you never fought for me.
What leg were you shot in when you kissed Chris Keller?
[voiceover] 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 that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the HEARTACHE and fear of what life has.
[voiceover] But once in a while people push on to something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. Or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quite persistence of a dream.
[voiceover] There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a road map. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.
voiceover] My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. I play basketball -- at least I used to. I have a girlfriend -- at least I used to. And I have a best friend. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world, maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their place. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling's a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes. Someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won't always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you.
[voiceover] Peyton Sawyer is a good friend. Brooke Davis is my girlfriend. At least, for now she is.
[voiceover] Things that take 14 minutes - boiling an ostrich egg, Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video. It also takes 14 minutes to get from the Melina bridge to Tree Hill hospital.
[voiceover] My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world. Maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Or someone like my best friend, Haley. If you're married, a senior in high school, and not sure if your husband is still alive, then I'd say your world is a lot like Haley's. Today was supposed to be the best day of her life. But it's amazing how things can change in the blink of an eye. Or, in this case, in 29 minutes.
I need you to trust me and believe me when I tell you that my heart is with you. Part of me feels like ever since we got back together you've been waiting, waiting to push me away.
[voiceover] Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred. How did it find us? Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us? That we now send our children out into the world like we send young men to war, hoping for their safe return but knowing that some will be lost along the way. When did we lose our way? Consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness. Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?
[voiceover] Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a 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.
Because, you kink your eyebrow when you're trying to be cute. Because you quote Camus even though I've never actually seen you read. Because you miss your parents, but you'll never admit that! And because I've given exactly two of these embarrassing speeches in my life, and they've both been with you. I mean, that's gotta mean something right?! And because we're both gonna get pneumonia, but if you need to hear why I love you, I can go on all night.
If you're always looking for reasons not to be with somebody, well you'll always find them, and I guess at some point you should let go and give your heart what it deserves.
[voiceover] H.L. Mencken wrote, "Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit upon his hands,hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."
[voiceover] Scott Taylor Idus once wrote: Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone. And do not trouble about the future for it is yet to come. Live in the present and make it so beautiful, that it will be worth remembering.
[voiceover] Robert Louis Stevenson once said, "You cannot run away from a weakness; you must sometimes fight it out or perish. And if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?"
[voiceover] Blaise Pascal once said: "The heart has reasons that reason cannot know."
You know if I ever met the devil, I figured she be hot and holding a basketball.
[voiceover] Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeoning of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
- Invictus, William Ernest Henley
[voiceover] Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote, 'There is no privacy that cannot be penetrated. No secret can be kept in the civilized world. Society is a masked ball where everyone hides his real character, then reveals it by hiding.
[voiceover] Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote: "All are architects of fate... so look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again."
[voiceover] Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote: 'All are architects of fate... living in these walls of time.'
[voiceover] Henry David Thoreau once wrote, "Live each season as it passes. Breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, but resign yourself to the influences of each."
[voiceover] Tennessee Williams once wrote: We all live in a house of fire. No fire department to call. No way out. Just the upstairs window to look out of while the fire burns down the house...with us trapped, locked in it.
[voiceover] Shaw was right. As we strain to gasp the things we desire the things we think will make our lives better: money, popularity, fame... we ignore what truly matters ... the simple things... like friendship, family, love. The things we probably already had.
[voiceover] And Hansel said to Gretel: Let us drop these bread crumbs so that together we can find our way home. Because losing our way would be the most cruel of things. This year I lost my way.
[voiceover] Stephen King once wrote: Time takes it all. Whether you want it to or not. Time takes it all, time bears it away, and in the end, there is only darkness. Sometimes we find others in that darkness. And sometimes we lose them there again.
[voiceover] Charles Bukowski once wrote: There will always be something to ruin our lives. It all depends on what or which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.
[voiceover] Khalil Gibran once wrote: Your reason and your passion are the rudder and sails of your seafaring soul. If either be broken, you can but toss and drift or else be held at a standstill in mid-seas. For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining. And passion, unattended is a flame that burns to its own destruction.
[time capsule] My best friend, Haley, left town recently. And it's.. been hard. You know, until this year, it's... it's always been us against the world. We pretty much grew up together and.. now she's just gone. You know, I.. I understand the leaving part. Trust me, I just wish she woulda called me; before she left. I wish.. I coulda talked to her about it. I mean, not to change her mind.. or to tell her what to do, but.. just to say I love you... and I miss you. Just to say goodbye. My brother's been going through a tough time lately. I wish there was more I could do to help him. I mean, just getting along is kinda new to us. But I guess that's how brothers are. Better to each other and worse to each other than anybody else. I also wish I could make things easier for my mom. I mean, even though it's been a tough year for us, I want her to be happy more than anything. But that doesn't change the fact that I need to get closer to my father because if I can get closer to him, maybe I can find a way to beat him. Once and for all - set the people that I love free. I just hope I have the strength to tear him down for good.
[voiceover] Octavio Paz once wrote: Solitude is the profoundest fact of the human condition. Man is the only being who knows he is alone.
[voiceover] Tennessee Williams once wrote: When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.
[voiceover] Nathaniel Hawthorne once wrote: No man, for any considerable period can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true.
[voiceover] Oliver Wendell Holmes once said: Many people die with their music still in them. Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.
[voiceover] Katherine Anne Porter once said: There seems to be a kind of order in the universe in the movement of the stars and in 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 rights and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and his own.
Yeah. You see, then a funny thing happened; Haley. She showed me that you can find the good in everybody, if you just give them a chance. The benefit of the doubt. Sometimes, people disappoint you. Sometimes they surprise you. But you never really get to know them ... until you listen for what's in their hearts and that's what Haley did with Nathan. That's what we should do for them. So for you skeptics out there, prepare to be surprised. So this is to my ... brother and my little sis in-law, and in love.
[voiceover] T.H. White said: Perhaps we all give the best of our hearts uncritically to those who hardly think about us in return.
[voiceover] Some people believe that ravens guide travelers to their destinations. Others believe that the sight of a solitary raven is considered good luck while more than one raven together predicts trouble ahead.
[voiceover] What a frightening thing the human is, a mass of gauges and dials and registers, and we can read only a few and those perhaps not accurately.
[voiceover] As happens sometimes, a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. Then gradually time awakened again and moved sluggishly on.
Hey. So I saw Nathan in the shower. Yeah, no wonder you broke up with him.
Uh ... beware of crazy ladies who talk to dresses?
[voiceover] John Steinbeck once wrote "It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live for our death brings no pleasure on the world."
[voiceover] E.E. Cummings once wrote; To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. It is yours.
Your art matters. That's what got me here.
[voiceover] There is a tide in the affairs of men, which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune but omitted, and the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat and we must take the current when it serves or lose the ventures before us. -Julius Caeser
You ever have something that you knew that you were better at than... almost anybody else?
Why are you a cheerleader? I mean, no offense or anything, but you're about the least cheery person I know. ... Come on, let me give you a ride. I'll let you insult me.
Is that the 'why do i hang out with these people?' issue, because you're on the cover of that, right?
No foul, basket counts. Besides, you won't score again.
And the way I see it, Skills would be a better father than Dan ever was.
It's funny, you know all these years we called him Skills, I always thought it had something to do with basketball.
Peyton, I hate you. I wish you'd never came back. You ruined my life.
Yeah. You ever wake up from a really good dream, and try to get back to sleep? Or you got the flu, and you promise yourself you will appreciate normal so much more, if you can just get back to it? That's the way I feel. I just want things to go back to the way they were.
[voice-over] Do not let your fire go out... spark by irreplaceable spark... in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish... in lonley frustration for the life you deserved... but never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists, it is real. It is possible. It is yours.
[Ayn Rand]
I didn't want to be like him and I was afraid that I'd become him if I played. In the gym, I felt like he had a piece of me. I never felt like that on the playground.
Don't live your life alone. Let us in.
Brooke, seeing you like this makes, "the sun go down in my heart."
[voiceover] William Shakespeare wrote; 'Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds. It is an ever fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken. Love alters not with time's brief hours and weeks, but bears it out even to the edge of doom’.
The last time I gave a speech about Nathan and Haley was, well at their first reception. I remember saying, 'Prepare to be surprised.' Well, I have to say even I was surprised; because, you see they do something that's very rare to see in someone our age. Actually, it's very rare to see in anybody; they give their hearts to each other, unconditionally. And, that's what true love really is. It's not this fairytale life that never knows pain, but it's two souls facing it together and diminishing it with unconditional love. To Nathan and Haley Scott.
[voiceover] At this moment there are six billion, five hundred and two million, eight hundred and sixty seven thousand, one hundred and twenty people in the world, give or take a few and sometimes all you need is one. For better or for worse.
[voiceover] Dan Scott is many things: the mayor of Tree Hill, the once great height school basketball player and Nathan's father. He's also my father, but he never claimed me. Believe it or not, I got the better end of the deal. I was instead raised by my mom with the help of my Uncle Keith, until Keith's life was taken.
[Thinking] I guess I should've said something... anything... I mean, for a guy who wants to be a writer, it suddenly seemed like no words had ever been written. But when someone tells you that they somehow stopped missing you, you're pretty much screwed, no matter what you say.
But to have it halfway is harder than not having it at all.
My confession is that I’m sometimes selfish. I don’t always give back as much as I get.
Clearly a rookie, mom. Next time, try sneaking through the window.
Whatever you think... I really do care about you, Peyton.
Chapter three. Peyton Sawyer is destined for greatness. Actually she’s already great. Because Peyton has a thing called integrity. And nothing or no one is ever going to change that. I remember the first time I met her.

Sweet Home Alabama
I'm not you wife. I'm just the first girl to climb in the back of your truck.
You look like sex on a stick in the Frederick Montana getup!
- Listen Bubba, why don't you just kiss my... ass! Oh my God!
Get in the truck, there, missy, 'cause I don't do that sort of thing on the street.
I can hardly afford me, much less some high maintenance babe.
Guess we all have our own little secrets.
- 'Course I read all about yours on the internet.
Oh I know all about the cocks in your hen house.
Honey, just because I talk slow don't mean that I'm stupid.
You have a baby... in the bar!
- This one is still on the tit so I can cart him everywhere.
Guys just grabbed a stick. Let's play some pool alright? And if you can't find one, just pull the cue from up her ass.
You can take the girl out of the honky-tonk but you can't take the honky-tonk out of the girl.
Let her think what she wants to. She made up her mind about me a long time ago.
- Some things never change.
- Like Eldon here, he never could get his balls in the right pocket.
I liked her better when she was crazy.
History's history. No reason to go sweepin' it under the rug.
People need a passport to come down here.
Well, then, I'm gonna buy you a drink.
- Well, you're really not my type, I mean...
It must be exhausting, living a lie.
Can't ride two horses with one ass, sugar bean.
I gave my heart away a long time ago. My whole heart. And I never really got it back.
You...In my entire life, I have never met anyone so manipulative, so deceitful! And I'm in politics!
You go after him you little bitch!
Oh, go back to your double wide and fry something.
Praise the Lord! The South has risen again!
Why do you want to marry to me?
- So I can kiss you anytime I want.
You look like sex on a stick in the Frederick Montana getup!
- Listen Bubba, why don't you just kiss my... ass! Oh my God!
Get in the truck, there, missy, 'cause I don't do that sort of thing on the street.
I can hardly afford me, much less some high maintenance babe.

Hitch
Never lie, steal, cheat or drink. But if you must lie... lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal... steal away from bad company. If you must cheat... cheat death. And if you must drink... drink in the moments that take your breath away!

Freaks and Geeks
Ken Miller: I have to get into a bar. Everything fun in life happens in bars.
Millie Kentner: You're high!

Millie Kentner: I know what high people look like. I went to a Seals and Crofts concert last summer.
Lindsay Weir: We're all unhappy. That's the thing about life.
Sam Weir: It's Cindy. She's kind of boring. It's weird hanging out with her friends. And, I mean, all she wants to do is make out and stuff.
Neal Schweiber: I'd kill to be that bored.
Bill Haverchuck: I heard my mom say to her girlfriend, "Any guy with feathered hair is *foxy*."

Jenna Zank: You know what punkers don't do? Call themselves punkers.

Harris Trinsky: You're not a loser 'cause you have sex, but if you weren't having sex, we could definitely debate the issue.
Alan White: Dr. Love, would you autograph my genitals?
Harold Weir: Everyone's a Democrat until they get a little money. Then they come to their senses!
Neal Schweiber: I'm Jewish. That's no cakewalk either. Last year, I was elected school treasurer. I didn't even run!
Nick Andopolis: Hey, I believe in god, man. I've seen him, I've felt his power! He plays drums for Led Zeppelin and his name is John Bonham, baby!
Kim Kelly: Are you calling me irrational? Because I'll tear your head off, Daniel. I'll tear it off and I'll throw it over that fence.
Discotheque DJ: Aren't you one of those guys who's always running in here yelling 'disco sucks?' What's the matter, cat got your bong, man? Is that how you learned to communicate? Running in here and yelling stuff? Is that what your precious "rock and roll" teaches you?
Ken Miller: No, it teaches me that DISCO SUCKS!
Daniel Desario: Will you knock it off, Blondie, you're gonna blow the speakers.
Kim Kelly: Oh I'm sorry Grandpa, I'll try not to blow anything of yours from now on.

Lindsay Weir: Wow, she sounds awesome.
Kim Kelly: Yeah, well, she's dead. She OD'd on coke.
Lindsay Weir: [while hitchhiking] We're so sheltered, you know? There's this whole other America out there. The person who picks us up could be an artist or a psychic or an escaped felon. This is so exciting!
Harold Weir: [holding up his thumb] You think I don't know what this means? I know, Lindsay! It means, "Hey, stranger! Please lock me in your car, drive me to God knows where and *murder me*!"
Harold Weir: That Kim Kelly is a bad banana.
Nick Andopolis: I'm gonna be a Deejay, man.
[beat]
Nick Andopolis: And maybe a lumberjack.
Kim Kelly: [watching the marching band practice] Check out the pizza-face dork with the trombone! Why doesn't he just pop those things?
Daniel Desario: I think if he did, he'd die of blood loss.
Ken Miller: Look! It's Tuba Girl!
Ken Miller: [about Tuba Girl] That's not playing an instrument! That's like blowing into a toilet!
Lindsay Weir: Sounds better than your singing!
Ken Miller: Lindsay, here's an idea - how 'bout you break up our band so you can go make out with Nick? Oh, wait, you already did that.
Kim Kelly: He made out with Wendy Franklin at the Laser Dome. And now he wants to go there with me?
Lindsay Weir: So... are you going?
Kim Kelly: Well, yeah. What else am I gonna do?
Daniel Desario: [to Ken] You're in love with Tuba Girl?
Lindsay Weir: [about Tuba Girl] Oh, my God, you really like her, don't you?
Ken Miller: I feel... odd.
Bill Haverchuck: You know what would be cool? To find a girl in a bottle, like "I Dream of Jeanie". I'd like to make out with her on that little couch.
Sam Weir: Yeah, Cindy would look good in those puffy pants.
Scott: My dad found my grow lights and ran over them with his car.
Scott: [about marijuana] It's hydrophonic.
Lindsay Weir: Like the lettuce?
Bill Haverchuck: I don't like jokes. I don't think they are funny.
Bill Haverchuck: This push-up is too hard to push up.
Daniel Desario: That designated driver's pretty hot. I'd like to get her drunk.
Neal Schweiber: Bill, Dallas sucks.
Bill Haverchuck: ...You suck. Dallas rules.
Sam Weir: What's non-alcoholic beer?
Bill Haverchuck: It's just like beer, it just doesn't have that ingredient that makes you drunk.
Neal Schweiber: ...Alcohol?
Bill Haverchuck: Yeah.
Neal Schweiber: Friday night, always a good night for some Sabbath.
[Lindsay looks at him]
Neal Schweiber: ... 'cause, you know, Friday? is the the Sabbath... for the Jews.
Sam Weir: What am I gonna say to Cindy?
Bill Haverchuck: Don't say anything. Be dominant. It's all, all about dominance. I saw this monkey show on PBS, if you talk to her first, it's a sign of weakness and she will not pick you to be her mate.
Sam Weir: Are you drunk?
Bill Haverchuck: I think so, yes I am.
Sam Weir: Aw, man, go into my room, lock the door, and don't drink any more.
Bill Haverchuck: [after Sam leaves] That's very dominant.
Jean Weir: [to Lindsay, about Nick] What are you going to tell him?
Lindsay Weir: I don't know, Mom!
Harold Weir: I know what to tell him - tell him he's a grease bucket and you deserve better.
Jean Weir: If my parents ever read my diary, I would have been furious. Such a violation.
Harold Weir: Spooning with a stranger in the back of a van, now that's a violation!
Harold Weir: These stamps - I heard kids put LSD underneath them.
Harold Weir: What the hell?
Jean Weir: Harold, it's a Cornish Game Hen with a plum wine sauce. They're fantastic.
Harold Weir: What did you do? Put poison in the bird feeder?
Sam Weir: We're not adults. We're kids until we turn 18.
Neal Schweiber: Maybe you are, but when I hit 13, I became a man.
Bill Haverchuck: That's only in your temple, Neil, not in the real world.
Neal Schweiber: [about his Halloween costume] Hm... looking for Chaplin, only seeing Hitler.
Bill Haverchuck: [about his fake breasts, as the Bionic Woman for Halloween] No, these are not bionic. These are all me.
Alan White: [on Halloween, Bill is in costume] Shut up, you little girl.
Bill Haverchuck: I'm not a little girl, I'm a bionic woman.
Harold Weir: I feel that there comes a point in a young man's life when he should start testing the waters.
Lindsay Weir: What about me testing the waters?
Harold Weir: You can test the waters, too - after you get married!
Gordon Crisp: I don't like Sci-Fi - I love, love, love it!
Jeff Rosso: How dumb do I look?
Ken Miller: Do you really want to know?
Lindsay Weir: [about Mr. Rosso] Have you ever looked at him? He's kinda good looking.
Kim Kelly: Yeah, if you're attracted to guys that look like Jesus.
Neal Schweiber: You are a dimwit. And an imbecile. I blow my nose in your general direction.
Coach Ben Fredricks: Hey, hey! That's not in there!
Neal Schweiber: It isn't?
Bill Haverchuck: You cut me off mid-funk!
Sam Weir: You look a little bit like my grandpa.
Bill Haverchuck: Oh, is your grandpa super cool?
Kevin Handleman: Beer here!
Millie Kentner: No thanks. I prefer to get high on life.
Jeff Rosso: I. Have. Herpes. It doesn't hurt that much, but believe me, you don't want it.
Lindsay Weir: Can I please go now?
Jeff Rosso: I just blew your mind, didn't I.
Sam Weir: Hey Harris, what kind of presents do you get Judith?
Harris Trinsky: Judith has very particular tastes. About the only thing she ever wants is scented oils and plenty of time with her man.
Nick Andopolis: Hey, I heard Kim got an "A" on her Western Civics exam.
[beat]
Nick Andopolis: Oh no, that was *my* girlfriend. Hmm, but did you know that Lindsay got detention for flipping off her gym teacher?
[beat]
Nick Andopolis: No, wait, that was *your* girlfriend! Hmm.
Daniel Desario: I heard that Kim hit you really hard in the chest.
[beat]
Daniel Desario: No wait. That was me.
Daniel Desario: [slams Nick in the chest and walks away]
Nick Andopolis: Wow, that was really hard.
Millie Kentner: You're high!
Lindsay Weir: How could you tell?
Millie Kentner: I know what high people look like. I went to a Seals and Crofts concert last summer.
Lindsay Weir: We're all unhappy. That's the thing about life.
Sam Weir: It's Cindy. She's kind of boring. It's weird hanging out with her friends. And, I mean, all she wants to do is make out and stuff.
Neal Schweiber: I'd kill to be that bored.
Bill Haverchuck: I heard my mom say to her girlfriend, "Any guy with feathered hair is *foxy*."
Sam Weir: Uh, dad, can I have an Atari from my birthday?
Harold Weir: An a-what-i?
Jean Weir: That's one of those expensive video games, isn't it?
Sam Weir: No, no! It's not expensive!
Harold Weir: Oh, well, the welfare lines are full of those video game players.
Bill Haverchuck: Fredericks, you're a turd... a stinky f-fat turd, go sniff a jock strap, you poop head. You love patting boys' butts... butt... you butt-patter! You're a perv and a loser and a stinky t-turd!
Neal Schweiber: My mom says women prefer guys with a good sense of humor.
Bill Haverchuck: But, uh, you're not funny.
Neal Schweiber: Screw you, I'm hilarious!
Bill Haverchuck: If I were Bionic Woman, what would I wear?
Jenna Zank: You know what punkers don't do? Call themselves punkers.
Daniel Desario: Am I a loser?
Harris Trinsky: You're not a loser 'cause you have sex, but if you weren't having sex, we could definitely debate the issue.
Alan White: Dr. Love, would you autograph my genitals?
Harold Weir: Everyone's a Democrat until they get a little money. Then they come to their senses!
Neal Schweiber: I'm Jewish. That's no cakewalk either. Last year, I was elected school treasurer. I didn't even run!
Nick Andopolis: Hey, I believe in god, man. I've seen him, I've felt his power! He plays drums for Led Zeppelin and his name is John Bonham, baby!
Kim Kelly: Are you calling me irrational? Because I'll tear your head off, Daniel. I'll tear it off and I'll throw it over that fence.
Discotheque DJ: Aren't you one of those guys who's always running in here yelling 'disco sucks?' What's the matter, cat got your bong, man? Is that how you learned to communicate? Running in here and yelling stuff? Is that what your precious "rock and roll" teaches you?
Ken Miller: No, it teaches me that DISCO SUCKS!
Daniel Desario: Will you knock it off, Blondie, you're gonna blow the speakers.
Kim Kelly: Oh I'm sorry Grandpa, I'll try not to blow anything of yours from now on.
Millie Kentner: You're on the pot!
Millie Kentner: She fornicates it!
Lindsay Weir: [to Nick] So... you wanna make out or something?
Ken Miller: I always say girl plus car equals dead animal.
Harris Trinsky: Love is like homework. You gotta study if you want to get an A.
Sam Weir: What am I supposed to do with a porno?
Neal Schweiber: You watch it. Over and over.
Kim Kelly: My aunt Cathy was so rad. She lived in L.A. She was on Kojak. She doinked Ryan O'Neal once at a party.
Lindsay Weir: Wow, she sounds awesome.
Kim Kelly: Yeah, well, she's dead. She OD'd on coke.
Lindsay Weir: [while hitchhiking] We're so sheltered, you know? There's this whole other America out there. The person who picks us up could be an artist or a psychic or an escaped felon. This is so exciting!
Harold Weir: [holding up his thumb] You think I don't know what this means? I know, Lindsay! It means, "Hey, stranger! Please lock me in your car, drive me to God knows where and *murder me*!"
Harold Weir: That Kim Kelly is a bad banana.
Nick Andopolis: I'm gonna be a Deejay, man.
[beat]
Nick Andopolis: And maybe a lumberjack.
Kim Kelly: [watching the marching band practice] Check out the pizza-face dork with the trombone! Why doesn't he just pop those things?
Daniel Desario: I think if he did, he'd die of blood loss.
Ken Miller: Look! It's Tuba Girl!
Ken Miller: [about Tuba Girl] That's not playing an instrument! That's like blowing into a toilet!
Lindsay Weir: Sounds better than your singing!
Ken Miller: Lindsay, here's an idea - how 'bout you break up our band so you can go make out with Nick? Oh, wait, you already did that.
Kim Kelly: He made out with Wendy Franklin at the Laser Dome. And now he wants to go there with me?
Lindsay Weir: So... are you going?
Kim Kelly: Well, yeah. What else am I gonna do?
Daniel Desario: [to Ken] You're in love with Tuba Girl?
Lindsay Weir: [about Tuba Girl] Oh, my God, you really like her, don't you?
Ken Miller: I feel... odd.
Bill Haverchuck: You know what would be cool? To find a girl in a bottle, like "I Dream of Jeanie". I'd like to make out with her on that little couch.
Sam Weir: Yeah, Cindy would look good in those puffy pants.
Scott: My dad found my grow lights and ran over them with his car.
Scott: [about marijuana] It's hydrophonic.
Lindsay Weir: Like the lettuce?
Bill Haverchuck: I don't like jokes. I don't think they are funny.
Bill Haverchuck: This push-up is too hard to push up.

Addams Family
Pugsley: We're not shy!
Wednesday: We're contagious.
(Gomez refers to the girl popping out of the cake at a bachelor party)
Was she in there before you baked it?
Gomez: Children, why do you hate the baby?
Pugsley: We don't hate him. We just wanna play with him.
Wednesday: Especially his head.
Little Girl: ...and then Mommy kissed Daddy, and the angel told the stork, and the stork flew down from heaven, and put the diamond in the cabbage patch, and the diamond turned into a baby!
Pugsley: Our parents are having a baby too.
Wednesday: They had sex.
Wednesday: We're contagious.
