Nicholas Sparks, Dear John

"Believe me, I'm no romantic, and while I've heard all about love at first sight, I've never believed in it, and I still don't. But even so, there was something there, something recognizably real, and I couldn't look away."

"No matter where it is in the sky... No matter where you are in the world... the moon is never bigger than your thumb. -John"

"When you're struggling with something, look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something, and to them, it's just as hard as what you're going through."

"The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all. Passion and satisfaction go hand in hand, and without them, any happiness is only temporary, because there's nothing to make it last."

"الحب يعني أن تهتم بسعادة شخص آخر أكثر من اهتمامك بسعادتك أنت ، بغض النظر عن مدى الألم الذي سيسببه لك قرارك"

"I'd learned that some things are best kept secret."

"The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all. Passion and satisfaction go hand in hand, and without them, any happiness is only temporary, because there's nothing to make it last."

"I fell in love with her when we were together, then fell deeper in love with her in the years we were apart."

"You're a hero and a gentleman, you're kind and honest, but more than that, you're the first man I ever truly loved. And no matter what the future brings, you always will be, and I know that my life is better for it."

"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'd learned that some things are best kept secret."

"Our story has three parts: a beginning, a middle, and an end. And although this is the way all stories unfold, I still can't believe that ours didn't go on forever."

"When I look in the mirror, I know I’m looking at someone who isn’t sure she deserves to be loved at all."

"We’d met at a carefree time, a moment full of promise, in its place now were the harsh lessons of the real world."

"Being in love, I find myself smiling for no reason at all..."

"I love you, not just for now, but for always, and I dream of the day that you’ll take me in your arms again."

"In our time together, you claimed a special place in my heart, one I'll carry with me forever and that no one can ever replace."

"We’d met at a carefree time, a moment full of promise, in its place now were the harsh lessons of the real world."

"and all I could think was that I would like to spend every morning for the rest of my life waking up beside her"

"You're a hero and a gentleman, you're kind and honest, but more than that, you're the first man I ever truly loved. And no matter what the future brings, you always will be, and I know that my life is better for it."
