"You might not understand, but I gave you the best of me, and after you left, nothing was ever the same. -- Nicholas Sparks

Makes sense to me. Sometimes starting over is exactly what a person needs. And I think it's admirable. A lot of people don't have the courage it takes to do something like that. -- Nicholas Sparks
But most of all, what really attracted me to her was her manner. She laughed a lot, and it's easy to fall for someone who can find humor in any situation.

love you deeply, my husband. You are, and always have been, my

"I'm not tired then. I'm only tired in the mornings."

I'm writing a new love story, set in eastern North Carolina. Surprise, surprise, huh? -- Nicholas Sparks

Daddies ain't worth much if they don't worry just a little. -- Nicholas Sparks

You are in so much more trouble than I thought you were! -- Nicholas Sparks
I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough.. -- Nicholas Sparks
A woman shaking in fear from demons in her mind, and the old man who loves her more deeply than life itself, crying softly in the corner, his face in his hands. -- Nicholas Sparks

I am lost without you. I am soulless, a drifter without a home, a solitary bird in a flight to nowhere. I am all these things, and I am nothing at all. This, my darling, is my life without you. I long for you to show me how to live again. -- Nicholas Sparks

then don't let her go. -- Nicholas Sparks
Dawson, she knew, had saved Alan's life- but in the end, he'd saved Jared's as well. And for her that meant ... everything. 'I gave you the best of me,' he'd told her once, and with every beat of her son's heart, she knew he'd done exactly that. -- Nicholas Sparks

Now as he watched Katie toying with a ring that wasn't there, he felt his old investigative instincts kick in. There'd been a husband, he thought; her husband was the missing element. Either she was still married or she wasn't, but he had an undeniable hunch that Katie was still afraid of him. -- Nicholas Sparks

Why study or try to change the world on a Friday afternoon when you could be out enjoying the sun? -- Nicholas Sparks
That speaking the words, even if true, had little power to change the inevitable or even make him feel much better. -- Nicholas Sparks
People didn't change. they liked what they liked even if they didn't understand why. -- Nicholas Sparks
There's nothing you can tell me that will change how I feel about you. Nothing. Because that isn't you. It's never been you. You're the woman I've come to know. The woman I love. -- Nicholas Sparks

I don't know that love changes. People change. Circumstances change. -- Nicholas Sparks
The romantics would call this a love story, the cynics would call it a tragedy. In my mind it's a little bit of both, and no matter how you choose to view it in the end, it does not change the fact that it involves a great deal of my life and the path I've chosen to follow. -- Nicholas Sparks
Change isn't always for the best. -- Nicholas Sparks
If you'd rather not answer, you don't have to," Miles offered. "I'm sure it wouldn't change my impression of him, anyway."

"Because you don't like him."
"You're pretty perceptive. -- Nicholas Sparks
Is it possible, I wonder, for a man to truly change? Or do character and habit form the immovable boundaries of our lives? -- Nicholas Sparks
Everyone has a past, but that's just it
it's in the past. You can learn from it, but you can't change it. -- Nicholas Sparks
It's not such a bad thing. Change isn't always for the best. -- Nicholas Sparks

change is the inevitable laws of nature exacting its toll on lives. -- Nicholas Sparks

Memories are funny things. Sometimes they're real, but other times they change into what we want them to be, -- Nicholas Sparks
I've come to believe that in everyone's life, there's one undeniable moment of change, a set of circumstances that suddenly alters everything. -- Nicholas Sparks
It's funny, but have you ever noticed that the more special something is, the more people seem to take it for granted? It's like they think it won't ever change. Just like this house here. All it ever needed was a little attention, and it would never have ended up like this in the first place. -- Nicholas Sparks
The first time you fall in love, it will change your life forever. -- Nicholas Sparks
But a risk-free life wasn't much of a life, really, and if she was going to change, she might as well start now. -- Nicholas Sparks
Here's what else I've learned: Age doesn't guarantee wisdom, any more than age guarantees intelligence. -- Nicholas Sparks
When a man is that special, you know it sooner than you think possible. You recognize it instinctively, and you're certain that no matter what happens, there will never be another one like him. -- Nicholas Sparks
Do not worry about tomorrow until you have to. -- Nicholas Sparks
Staring at the stars was like staring backward in time, since some stars are so far away that their light takes millions of years just to reach us. That we see stars not as they look now, but as they were when dinosaurs roamed the earth. The whole concept just struck me as ... amazing somehow. -- Nicholas Sparks
You are staring at me like you were going to eat me up. -- Nicholas Sparks
I knew you loved me and that you'd do anything for me. And that was one of the reasons it hurt so much when you ended it, Dawson. Because I knew even then how rare that kind of love is. Only the luckiest people get to experience it at all. -- Nicholas Sparks

I'm sorry, I guess my company leaves a lot to be desired. -- Nicholas Sparks
In another place, in another time, she would have felt the majesty of the beauty around her, but as she stood on the beach, she realized that she didn't feel anything at all. In a way, she felt as if she weren't really here, as if the whole thing was nothing but a dream. -- Nicholas Sparks
Sometimes my grief is overwhelming, and even though I understand that we will never see each other again, there is a part of me that wants to hold on to you forever. -- Nicholas Sparks

After I got shot, you want to know the very first thing that entered my mind? The U.S. Mint. I am coin in the U.S. Army. Now, I have two small holes in me. I'm no longer perfectly culled. Do you want to know the very last thing that entered my mind, You. -- Nicholas Sparks
I'm not sure anyone's life turns out exactly the way they imagine. All we can do is to try to make the best of it. Even when it seems impossible. -- Nicholas Sparks
See me just as I see you. -- Nicholas Sparks
For there were times I caught them staring at me curiously. I never told them about my past or shared personal information. They knew nothing of Savannah or my dad or my friendship with Tony. Those memories were mine and mine alone, for I'd learned that some things are best kept secret. In -- Nicholas Sparks
If relationships were hard, mariage was even harder ... it seemed like most couples struggled. It went with the territory. What did Nana always say?

I didn't want to fall in love with anyone. I wasn't ready for that. I've been through that once, and afterwards I was a mess. -- Nicholas Sparks
If I tried to write long-hand, I suppose I'd never finish a novel. I edit too much as I write - the paper would be "white-out" and sharpie marks. Writing with a computer works for me, so I stick with it. -- Nicholas Sparks
with knowledge comes pain. -- Nicholas Sparks
I suppose more than anything, it's the way of life in this part of the country that influences my writing. In Eastern North Carolina, with the exception of Wilmington, most people live in small towns. -- Nicholas Sparks
I suppose [my life] has most resembled a blue chip stock: fairly stable, more ups than downs, and gradually trending upward over time. A good buy, a lucky buy, and I've learned that not everyone can say that about his life. -- Nicholas Sparks

In college, there aren't many guys like that, and why would there be? When girls just give it away for nothing? I mean, I can understand why you'd sleep with someone if you love them, but if you barely know them? What's the point? It just cheapens it. -- Nicholas Sparks
