More quotes by 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
Frugality, I've learned, has its own cost, one that sometimes lasts forever.
Nicholas Sparks
Spending time with you just feels...right,somehow. Easy, like the way it's supposed to be. Like it is with my parents. They're just comfortable together, and I remember growing up thinking that one day I wanted to have that, too.
Nicholas Sparks
Inspiration can come from anywhere - an image, a comment, something that's happened to me or someone I know. It's hard to know exactly.

But even though she was attractive, there was something else about her that caught his eye. She was intelligent, he could sense that right away, and confident, too, as if she were able to move through life on her own terms. To him, these were the things that really mattered.

Nicholas Sparks
Nothing is really lost or can be lost, No birth, identity, form--no object of the world, Nor life, nor force, nor any visible thing... The body, sluggish, aged , cold--the embers left from early fires, ...shall duly flame again
Nicholas Sparks
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.
Nicholas Sparks
I can’t make this decision for you…this one’s yours. I want you to know, though, that I love you. And I always will. I know that doesn’t help, but it’s all I can do.
Nicholas Sparks
There's always pressure, a great deal of pressure, when writing, since my first books were so successful.
Nicholas Sparks
Love is fragile. And we're not always its best caretakers. We just muddle through and do the best we can. And hope this fragile thing survives against all odds.
Nicholas Sparks
Who do you think it was that brought the bottle to her?
Nicholas Sparks
Over time, quality work will lead to an audience for your work.

Even though he was here, she couldn't quite process it. She squeered her eyes shut before opening them again. Yep, still there. Amazing.
Nicholas Sparks
Do you ever wonder why things have to turn out the way they do?
Nicholas Sparks
I don't write fantasy, I write reality. Also, my novels have roots to Greek tragedies and as such, there has to be tragedy.
Nicholas Sparks
Being in love, I find myself smiling for no reason at all.
Nicholas Sparks
It’s the same thing. Passion is passion. It’s the excitement between the tedious spaces, and it doesn’t matter where it’s directed.
Nicholas Sparks
He was from a different class, too poor, and they would never approve if their daughter became serious with someone like him.
Nicholas Sparks
Men like women who know how to be subtle.
