Quotes from Nicholas Sparks

There's a lot of magic between you, ain't no denying that. And magic makes forgettin' hard.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Best of Me

But he had been in love once, that he knew. Once and only once, and a long time ago. And it had changed him forever. Perfect love did that to a person and this had been perfect.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Notebook

I realized that there were times when we talked not because we needed to communicate anything important, but simply because we each drew comfort from the other's voice.

—Nicholas Sparks in Three Weeks With My Brother

When a man is that special, you know it sooner than you think possible. You recognize it instinctively, and you're certain that no matter what happens, there will never be another one like him.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Lucky One

Love should bring joy, it should grant a person peace, but here and now, it was bringing only pain.

—Nicholas Sparks in Dear John

He'll never let you down. That boy's got a heart the size of Kentucky, and he loves you. That's important. Take it from someone who knows. My mom used to tell me that whatever you do, marry someone who loves you more than you love him.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Guardian 

Everyone wanted to believe that endless love was possible. She'd believed in it once too, back when she was eighteen. But she knew that love was messy, just like life. It took turns that people couldn't foresee or even understand, leaving a long trail of regret in its wake. And almost always, those regrets led to the kinds of 'what if' questions that could never be answered.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Best of Me

That's why I loved being with you. We could do the simplest things, like toss starfish into the ocean and share a burger and talk and even then I knew that I was fortunate. Because you were the first guy who wasn't constantly trying to impress me. You accepted who you were, but more than that, you accepted me for me. And nothing else mattered―not my family or your family or anyone else in the world. It was just us.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Best of Me

Guilt, in other words, isn't always wasted. It can keep us from making the same mistake twice.

—Nicholas Sparks in Two By Two

Sometimes we need to be apart to understand just how much we truly love each other.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Notebook

You were honest and hardworking and kind. You were polite and patient and more mature than any guy I'd dated before. And when we were together, you listened in a way that made me feel like I was the only woman in the world. You made me feel complete and spending time with you just seemed right.

—Nicholas Sparks in The Wedding

I don't know that love changes. People change. Circumstances change.

—Nicholas Sparks
