Sometimes when you are young, you think nothing can hurt you.
It's like being invincible.

Your whole life is ahead of you when 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 were simply plans.

Because at the end when you're looking back instead of forward, you wanna believe that you made the most of what life gave you.

You wanna believe that you're leaving something good behind.
You wanted all to have mattered.

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 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 shadow swallowed whole by the darkness.
Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?

/One Tree Hill.


Dan: I've done some horrible things, unforgivable things.
Lucas didn't need a father. He had one.
He had a person who helped erase the shame of my cowardice.

Everything I've touched, I've diminished.
Deb's life. Nathan's talent. Keith.

[Karen: Look, you are not without redemption. I've seen it. I see it.]

Dan: That's not true. It's not true. I just wanna...
I wanna go back, you know?
I just wanna go back. I wanna take that little kid that I used to be
and just grab him and shake him and say: You stop! Stop! Just stop!

I wanna wake up from this nightmare, you know? I wanna breathe again.
I wanna... I wanna breathe again, Karen. Can you help me breathe?

Can you help me quiet these voices in my head that tell me I've lost you?
Because I know that I have.
If only I would've stayed with you.

/One Tree Hill / Dan Scott


Relationships don't work the way they do on television and in the movies: Will they, won't they, and then they finally do and they're happy forever -- gimme a break.

Nine out of ten of them end because they weren't right for each other to begin with, and half the ones that get married get divorced, anyway. And I'm telling you right now, through all this stuff, I have not become a cynic, I haven't. Yes, I do happen to believe that love is mainly about pushing chocolate-covered candies and, you know, in some cultures, a chicken.

You can call me a sucker, I don't care, 'cause I do... believe in it.

Bottom line is the couples that are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but, the big difference is, they don't let it take 'em down.

One of those two people will stand up and fight for that relationship every time, if it's right, and they're real lucky. One of them will say something.
