الحب يعني أن تهتم بسعادة شخص آخر أكثر من اهتمامك بسعادتك أنت... - Nicholas Sparks, Dear John

"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."

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

"She leaned into me, and when I closed my eyes, I knew I wanted nothing more than to hold her this way forever."

"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."

"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."
