One Tree Hill
[ Voiceover Done By: Lucas ] "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 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." -- William Shakespeare, "Julius Ceaser"
EPISODE #101 THE PLACES YOU HAVE COME TO FEAR THE MOST
[ Voiceover Done By: Lucas ] "Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps 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's yours." -- Ayn Rand, "Atlas Shrugged"
much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. And then the moment was gone." "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." -- John Steinbeck, "Of Mice And Men"
"Katherine Anne Porter once said; 'There seems to be a kind of order in the universein the movement of the stars and 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 right and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and his own.'"
BACK
"And Hansel said to Gretel, 'Let us drop these breadcrumbs... so that together we find our way home. Because losing our way would be the most cruel of things.' This year.. I lost my way." [ Voiceover Done By: Lucas ] "And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But, losing your reason for the journey... is a fate more cruel."[ Voiceover Done By: Nathan ] "The journey lasted eight months. Sometimes I traveled alone, sometimes, there were others who took the wheel -- and took my heart. But when the destination was reached, it wasnt me who arrived...it wasn't me at all." [ Voiceover Done By: Peyton ] "And once you lose yourself, you have two choices: find the person you used to be... or lose that person completely." [ Voiceover Done By: Brooke ] "Because, sometimes, you have to step outside of the person you've been. And remember the person you were meant to be. The person you wanted to be. The person you are." [ Voice Over Done By: Mouth ]
SEA
[ Voiceover Done By: Lucas ] "Henry David Thoreau once wrote: 'Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit and resign yourself to the influences of each.'"
EPISODE #316 WITH TIRED EYES, TIRED MINDS, TIRED SOULS, WE SLEPT
[ Voiceover Done By: Lucas ] "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 into 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?"
EPISODE #319 I SLEPT WITH SOMEONE FROM FALL OUT BOY AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS STUPID SONG WRITTEN ABOUT ME
[ Voiceover Done By: Lucas ] "George Eliot once wrote: 'There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our first great sorrow, when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and healed, to have despaired and have recovered hope.'"
"Once upon a time there was a Princess who lived in a kingdom far, far away; and in that kingdom there also lived a boy and the Princess loved that boy and, so the two decided to marry." "Now in this kingdom all was not well..." "So the princess and the boy were set to be wed and because she was a Princess, a call went out for a beautiful dress." "Now as the wedding day approached, the Princess worried about the evil King. Because, although he had not always been this way his heart had grown dark and his kingdom had grown to fear and despise him." "In the days before the wedding the king surprised the Princess and gave his blessing to the marriage. But, the Princess was still torn for even though she had found her true love it meant she would have to faithful handmaiden behind forever." "On the eve of the Princess's wedding a lavish feast was arranged. Friends and royalty were summoned from lands far away to join the happy couple for a night of laughter and magic." "As the night wore on a calm fell upon the land and all was right in the land, if only for a moment." "But the people had their struggles as all people do and they had grown to fear and despise the King, whose heart had grown dark." "But in the end the love between the Princess and the boy was undeniable and true. And, over time that love would see them through anything. Magical things happened to them, things they couldnt explain, much like love its self. And, like most fairy tales the Princess and the boy lived happily ever after... at least I hope they do."
Love alters not with times brief hours and weeks, but bears it out even to the edge of doom.'"
YOU
[ Voiceovers Done By: Lucas ] "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, 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 a blink of an eye, or in this case, in about 29 minutes." "The 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. In those 14 minutes, three lives hung in the balance. For the rest of us there was nothing to do but wait. I guess thats why they call in the waiting room." "'Someone should call Dan.' Dan Scott is many things: the mayor of Tree Hill, the once great high school baseball player, and Nathans 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 Keiths life was taken." "Peyton Sawyer is a good friend. Brooke Davis is my girlfriend, at least for now she is." "I guess I should have 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. See, but there had to be something, right? Something that no one had ever said in the history of the world, something that could change this. That wasn't it." [ During his breakup with Brooke ] "My name is Lucas Scott; I am 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 closely 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 its easy to feel like youre the only one in the world who's struggling, whos frustrated, or unsatisfied at barely getting by. But, that feeling is a lie and if you just hold on; just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find the way 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 wont always be this way. That someone is out there, and that someone will find you."
I FORGOT AT BIRTH
"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." "And, of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back." "There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads." "But, once in a while, people push onto 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 quiet persistence of a dream." "Because, it's only when youre 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 you want to be does exist; somewhere on the other side of hard work and faith and belief. And, beyond the heartache and fear of what lies ahead."
It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you, how many moments of other peoples lives have we been in, we're 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, as if we were somehow destined to be there, or did the shot take us by surprise. Just think, you could be a big part of someone else's life, and not even know it."
STARTED
[ Voiceovers Done By: Lucas ] "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 path? Will others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be haunted by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or simply give up." "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 fear bravely? And move forward with faith. Or will you succumb to the darkness in your soul?"
NIGHT?
[ Voiceovers Done By: Lucas ] "Life comes at us from out of the darkness. And at times we can struggle to find the courage to face it." "When life comes rushing at you from our of the darkness, who will you choose to face it with? Will it be someone you trust? Will they be wise? And will their love for you help them to guide 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, when it does -- is there someone in your life you can count on? Someone who will watch over you when you stumble and fall? And in that moment, give you the strength to face your fears alone?"
DONE
[ Voiceovers Done By: Lucas ] "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 you let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain 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 your own ways. But, our biggest regrets are not for the things we did -- but, for the things we didn't do. Things we didn't say that could've save someone that we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that's headed their way."
"Have you ever wondered what marks our timing? If one life can really make an impact on the world? Or if the choices we make matter? Sometimes in order to move forward, you have to go back. In this case, just a few minutes." "Have you ever wondered what marks our timing? 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."
she could have been a great friend. But it's good to know there is still a little time left to do that. And I also learned her last name. And I learned, that one hour, can change everything."
EPISODE #417 IT
[ Voiceovers Done By: Lucas ] William Blake once wrote; "There are things that are known and thing that are unknown, and in between, there are doors.
choices. Or you can fight back." "Things arent always going to be fair in the real world. Thats just the way it is. But for the most part, you get what you give. 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."
Peyton: "But if you believe that it right around the corner. And you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it, to the serenity of it." Brooke: "You just may get the thing youre wishing for." Nathan: "The world is full of magic you just have to believe it. So make your wish. Do you have it?" Haley: "Good. Now believe in it with all you heart."
"At this moment, there are 6 billion, 4 hundred, 71 million, 8 hundred, 18 thousand, 6 hundred, 71 people in the world. Some are running scared.. some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day.. others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good.. struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world, 6 billion souls -- and sometimes...all you need is 1." That's one of my favorite quotes on One tree hill :) Um...Even though I my favorite couple is Brooke and Lucas, I thought that since there are two other couples that people can seem to get enough of, I would put down their quotes too. I'll also throw in some random quotes from one tree hill. Okay, I hope you guys like it. Nathan and Haley Nathan: "Someday, this beach might wash awaythe
oceans may drythe sun could dim but on that day, Ill still be loving you. Always and forever. I promise you Haley. Haley: I Haley, take you Nathan. To have and to hold, from this day forward. In sickness and in health. For richer or poorer. For better or worse. I promise, that I will love and cherish you. And will deny all those that would come between us. I make this promise for eternity. I promise that I will keep forever Until the end of time. Till death do us part." Nathan: "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." Haley: "Always. Always and forever." Priest: "Friends and loved ones, we are gathered here today to witness the renewal of a commitment. A commitment between Nathan and Haley to love one another, unconditionally and endlessly. Nathan and Haley, there are many things I could say to the two of you today. But, instead, I choose to listen to the words you have for each other... Haley." Haley: "Nathan, it's been said that there is one word that will free us from the weight and pain of life. And, that word
is love, and I believe that. It 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." Nathan: "Last year we stood on a beach and I told you how much I loved you and how I would always, always protect you. And, that day nobody believed that this would work. But, I dont think anybody understood the love that I had for you; because, if they did 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. Its even stronger now and that love will never waver. This I vow to you today and always, forever."
Peyton and Lucas Lucas: Peyton! It's you. Peyton: What? Lucas: When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me. It's you. It's you Peyton. Luke: You warm enough? Peyton: I'm okay. I should probably get the heater fixed in here, huh? Luke: You know I could have Keith take a look at it for ya,
he's really good at that stuff. Do you want me stop and get some coffee? Peyton: I'm fine, thanks. Thanks for doing this for me, Luke. Luke: That's what friends are for right? Peyton: Yeah. Brooke and Lucas Brooke: We have a hot tub. Lucas: Brooke, I... Brooke: We have a naked me in the hot tub. Lucas: What if I told you there was someone else? Brooke: Well, then normally I'd suggest a threesome. Lucas Scott: Brooke! I'm sorry! What you did with Chris... it's okay. Brooke: It's not. It can't be. It's too much to forgive! Lucas Scott: Well, that's too bad because I forgive you. Brooke: You can't! Lucas Scott: I just did. So you're gonna just have to deal with it. I'm the guy for you Brooke Davis, and I know I hurt you last time we're together, but... Brooke: I love you. Lucas Scott: I love you too... pretty girl. Brooke and Peyton Brooke: "Ahem"
Peyton: "Hey, Brooke" Brooke: "Don't 'hey, Brooke' me. What is up with you and Hottie McHottie?" Peyton: "Who? McWhat?" Brooke: "Don't even try it. Please, the Fall Out Boy? I can spot him hitting - on - you from a mile away, and you were definitely returning fire." Peyton: "We talked for like 10 seconds." Brooke: "So you move fast. You should ask him to check you for lumps." Peyton: "Okay, not funny." Brooke: "What? he's a musician. He's got to have good hands." I thought I knew you. But I guess it's easier to see what we want than to look for the truth. You think you know me but you don't. And that means you don't know what I can do. You see me as someone popular and has all the answers but that's not true. I may not always know what I'm doing but I'll try to make things better. And when I make a mistake, because face it, we all do, I promise I'll ask for your help. I can't do this alone, but if you'll take a chance on me, we can do great things together. I promise if you believe in me, I'll find the courage to reach for your every dream. John F. Kennedy said, "the courage of life is a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must, in spite of personal consequences, in spite
of obstacles and dangers and pressures. And that is the basis of all morality". -Brooke Davis "Anna, it's not about who I am, okay. It's about who they are. They are people who hate, and they divide, and they feed off of people who don't fight back. Yeah I could laugh this off, but what about the girl who can't? Who's gonna help her. Silence only makes them stronger." -Peyton Sawyer Random quotes Lucas: 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. Brooke: LUCAS! Do not make me join you! Lucas: Uh, a little privacy here. Brooke: No, you've been in the shower forever! By the time I even get in the water it's gonna be...(Checks water) cold! Are you taking a cold shower?! Lucas: No, the hot waterBrooke: Gross! You are! You know what? Next wet dream,
tell Peyton I said 'Hi'. Ew! Karen: You remember when you said the other night that I had good instincts and that I should trust them? Keith: Yeah. (Karen leans in and kisses Keith) Karen: You were right. Anna: First they put away the dealers, keep our kids safe and off the street. Then they put away the prostitutes, keep married men cloistered at home. Then they shooed away the bums, then they beat and bashed the queers, turned away asylum-seekers, fed us suspicions and fears. We didn't raise our voice, we didn't make a fuss. It's funny there was no one left to notice when they came for us. "Blessed are the hearts that can bend, they shall never be brokenBut 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 the struggle is a part of life, so must all hearts be broken? No."
Sometimes pain becomes such a huge part of your life that you expect it to always be therebecause you can't remember a time in your life when it wasn't. But then one day you feel something else-something that feels wrong, only because it's so unfamiliar. And in that moment you realizeyou're happy
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? Sometimes in order to move forward, you have to go backin this case, just a few minutesHave 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 Did you ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? It makes you wonder how many people have pictures of you, how many moments of other people's lives we've been in. Were we part of someone's life when their dream came true, or were we there when their dreams died? Did we keep trying to get in, as if we were somehow destined to be there? Or did the shot take us by surprise? Just think, you could be a big part of someone else's life, and not even know it... 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 themselvessometimes 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 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 would 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? Nathan: "So you want me to tell you something about myself? I dont have anything to say. Even if I did, youd be wrong to believe me. Trust is a lie. Nobody ever knows anyone." "There are two tragedies in life: one is to lose your heart's desire, the other is to gain it." -- George Bernard Shaw Nathan: "As far as Im concerned, Shaw was a punk! 'Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What're you gonna do, give up? Quit? No. I realize now that when your heart breaks, you gotta fight like hell to make sure youre still alive. 'Cause you are, and that pain you feel: it'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." Peyton: "Yeah, losing your hearts desire is tragic. But gaining your hearts desire... Its all you can hope for. This year, I wished for love. To immerse myself in someone else and to wake a heart long afraid to feel. My wish was granted. And if having that is tragic then give me tragedy. Because, I wouldnt give it back for the world."
"I tried to be his friend. My mama told me that sometimes, people have to cry out all the tears, to make room for a heart full of smiles." -James Lucas Scott "Jamie" "Every song has an ending... but is that any reason not to enjoy the music?" -Peyton Sawyer "You have one chance, one life and what you do with it is up to you." -Peyton Sawyer "Who knew my subconscious could be such a bitch?" -Peyton Sawyer "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." -Peyton Sawyer "You were wrong yesterday when you said the kids in the clubs were just there for decadence. I think it's more like romance and hope and inspiration and that feeling that you get when other human beings pick up basic instruments and make sense of your world. And the day that I think it's just about making money is gonna be the day that. I've betrayed everything I believe in about music and life and myself." -Peyton Sawyer "And once you lose yourself, you have two choices: find the person you used to be... or lose that person completely..." -Brooke Davis
"How many moments in life could you look back to and think: That's when it all changed..." -Brooke Davis "Love is not love, which alters when it alteration finds. When life gets hard, when things change, true love remains the same." -Brooke Davis "First you're gonna let go. Now were going to sit, and you are going to cry on my shoulder for as long as you need to." -Brooke Davis "I know we're in a church! Blink once if it was good and twice if it was better than good!" )referring to Peyton Sawyer and Jake Jagielski doing it before the wedding) -Brooke Davis "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." -Lucas Scott "Do you ever wonder if we make moments in our lives, or if the moments in our lives make us?" -Lucas Scott "Just think, you could be a big part of someone else's life and not know it." -Lucas Scott
"Most of our life is a series of images. They pass us by like towns on the 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." -Lucas Scott "What a frightening thing is the human a mass of gages and dials and registers and we can read only a few. And those perhaps not accurately." -Lucas Scott "Now is the time for us to shine. The time when our dreams are within reach and possibilities vast. Now is the time for all of us to become the people we have always dreamed of being. This is your world. You're here. You matter. The world is waiting." -Haley James Scott "Why is it that it's so much easier to forgive a stranger than someone you love?" -Haley James Scott "We dont choose who we love... it just happens." -Haley James Scott "It's been said that there is one word that will free us from the weight and pain of life. And, that word is love, and I believe that. It 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." -Haley James-Scott
"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 and to live. Because life doesn't owe us anything, In fact I think we owe something to the world." -Haley James-Scott "When you turn out the lights it's all the same darkness." -Nathan Scott "Life's funny sometimes; can push pretty hard like when you fall in love with someone but they forget to love you 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. You know it's been said that we just don't recognize the significant moments of our lives while they're happening. We grow complacent with ideas, or things or people and we take them for granted and it's usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you've realized how wrong you've been that you realized how much you need it, how much you love it. God, I love this game. 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." -Nathan Scott "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." -Nathan Scott "Its been said that we just don't recognize the significant moments of our lives while there happeningwe grow up complacent with ideas or things or people and we take them for granted an its usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you realize how wrong you've beenthat you realize how much you really need ithow much you love it." -Nathan Scott "I think there's something in your heart you're running from. you know there's a girl you have feelings for. you can be mad at me all you want, you can say your heart's fine, but until you tell this girl how you feel, your heart's gonna be flawed." -Nathan Scott
Episode 101; The Places You Have Come to Fear The Most Lucas: Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swaps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all.

But when the destination was reached, it wasnt me who arrived. It wasnt me at all. Brooke: And once you lose yourself, you have two choices: find the person you used to be or lose that person completely. Mouth: Because, sometimes, you have to step outside of the person youve been.

Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world, 6 billion souls and sometimes All you need is 1.
Episode 316; With Tired Eyes, Tired Minds, Tired Souls, We Slept Lucas: 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 into war, hoping for their safe return.

But, once in a while, people push onto something better. Something found just beyond the pain of doing 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 quiet persistence of a dream. Because, its only when youre tested that you truly discover who you are.
