"Being together isn't about a honeymoon. It's about the real you and me. I want to wake up with you beside me in the mornings, I want to spend my evenings looking at you across the dinner table. I want to share every mundane detail of my day with you and hear every detail of yours. I want to laugh with you and fall asleep with you in my arms. Because you aren't just someone I loved back then. You were my best friend, my best self, and I can't imagine giving that up again... You might not understand but I gave you the best of me, and after you left nothing was ever the same.. I know you're afraid, and I'm afraid too. But if we let this go, if we pretend none of this ever happened, then I'm not sure we'll ever get another chance. We're still young. We still have time to make this right...We still have the rest of our lives."
“Don't take my advice. Or anyone's advice. Trust yourself. For good or for bad, happy or unhappy, it's your life, and what you do with it has always been entirely up to you.”
(THE BEST OF ME)
"I have faith that God will show you the answer. But you have to understand that sometimes it takes a while to be able to recognize what God wants you to do. That’s how it often is. God’s voice is usually nothing more than a whisper, and you have to listen very carefully to hear it. But other times, in those rarest of moments, the answer is obvious and rings as loud as a church bell."
(THE LAST SONG)
"But Love...is more than three words mumbled before bedtime. Love is sustained by action, a pattern of devotion in the things we do for each other every day."
"What I’m trying to say is that you are there, in everything I am … in everything I’ve ever done … and looking back, I know that I should have told you how much you’ve always meant to me."
(THE WEDDING)
"She embraced the idea that maturity meant thinking about risk long before you pondered the reward, and that success and happiness in life were as much about avoiding mistakes as making your mark in the world."
(TRUE BELIEVER)
"She wasn't exactly sure when it happened. Or even when it started. All she knew for sure was that right here and now, she was falling hard and she could only pray that he was feeling the same way."
(SAFE HAVEN)
“And when I came in with tears in my eyes, you always knew whether I needed you to hold me or just let me be. I don’t know how you knew, but you did, and you made it easier for me.”
"And I learned what is obvious to a child. That life is simply a collection of little lives, each lived one day at a time. That each day should be spent finding beauty in flowers and poetry and talking to animals. That a day spent with dreaming and sunsets and refreshing breezes cannot be bettered. But most of all, I learned that life is about sitting on benches next to ancient creeks with my hand on her knee and sometimes, on good days, for falling in love."
(THE NOTEBOOK)
"True love is rare, and it's the only thing that gives life real meaning."
"The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that's what you've given to me..."
"I have come to realize that destiny can hurt a person as much as it can bless them, and I find myself wondering why--out of all the people in all the world I could ever have loved--I had to fall in love with someone who was taken away from me."
(MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE)
“And when her lips met mine, I knew that I could live to be a hundred and visit every country in the world, but nothing would ever compare to that single moment when I first kissed the girl of my dreams and knew that my love would last forever.”
"I'll think about you everyday. Part of me is scared that there'll come a time when you don't feel the same way, that you'll somehow forget about what we shared, so this is what I want to do forever."
(DEAR JOHN)
“I held her close to me with my eyes closed, wondering if anything in my life had ever been this perfect and knowing at the same time that it hadn't. I was in love, and the feeling was even more wonderful than I ever imagined it could be.”
(A WALK TO REMEMBER)
"You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter."
"I don't want to lose you.' His voice almost a whisper. Seeing his haggard expression, she took his hand and squeezed it, then reluctantly let it go. She could feel the tears again, and she fought them back. 'But you don't want to keep me, either, do you?' To that, he had no response."
(THE RESCUE)
“I have no patience anymore. So many things make me angry. Little things, things that shouldn’t mean anything, but for some reason they do. And even though I try to push the anger back down, it sometimes comes out anyway. It hasn’t caused me any problems yet, but I wonder how long I can keep pushing it down before it gets away from me.”
(THE LUCKY ONE)
"If conversation was the lyrics, laughter was the music, making time spent together a melody that could be replayed over and over without getting stale."
"Lately, happiness seemed as distant and unattainable to him as space travel. He hadn't always felt this way. There had been a long period of time during which he remembered being very happy. But things change. People change. Change is one of the inevitable laws of nature, exacting its toll on people's lives."
(THE CHOICE)
"Everyone – you included – is on her best behavior in the beginning of a relationship. Sometimes little quirks turn out to be big ones, and the big advantage that women have – sometimes the only advantage – is their intuition."
(THE GUARDIAN)
"Nothing's going to happen," he said. "But I know what you mean."
She reached for his hand and kissed his fingers. "I love you, you know."
"Yeah," he said, "I know."
“You don't love me?”
“I love you more than there are fishes in the sea, and higher than the moon.” She looked at him curiously, and he shrugged. "That's what my mom used to say to us when we were little."
She kissed his fingers again. "Will you say that to Claire, too?"
"Every day."
(At First Sight)
One day when I've earned much money I swear the first thing I'd do is spending them on his books. And this is a damned effing promise!
-to be continued.. (well if u want it to)
