That’s the thing about life, he knew. There was always a but.
Nicholas Sparks

Nicholas Sparks

Nicholas Sparks

Nicholas Sparks
When I am in the process of conceiving a story, I make sure it can be told with words and pictures. The story has to be creative, original and interesting in both areas. Many stories get rejected because they feel derivative.
Nicholas Sparks
Throughout it all, I loved her as much as I always had, and I found myself aching for those simpler times of the past. I knew what was happening, of course. As we were drifting apart, I was becoming more desperate to save what we once had shared like a vicious circle, however, my desperation made us drift apart even further.
Nicholas Sparks
I tell myself that I know you, and then when I think about it, I realize that I don't.
Nicholas Sparks
She wasnt exactly sure when it happened. Or even when it started. All she knew for sure was that right here and now, she was falling hard and she could only pray that he was feeling the same way.
Nicholas Sparks
What? You don't think he's cute? I didn't really notice. How can you not notice when a guy is cute? Melody stared at her in disbelief.
Nicholas Sparks
I've come to understand that arguing with [my wife] about it has never solved anything. So instead of denying it, I've learned to take her hands, look her in the eyes, and respond with those three magic words every woman wants to hear: You're right, sweetheart.
