I love you now for what we've already shared, and I love you now in anticipation of all that's to come.
Nicholas Sparks
I'm sorry' I said again. Whenever someone tells you something said, it's the only thing you can think to say, even if you're already said it before.
Nicholas Sparks
What the younger generation didn't understand was that the grass was greenest where it's watered.

Whenever you're trying to do a film in a genuine historical period, you do have to make sure that you get as much historically accurate as you possibly can because there are thousands of people who are wildly interested in the Civil War.

Nicholas Sparks
My daddy said, that the first time you fall in love, it changes you forever and no matter how hard you try, that feeling just never goes away.
