Brooke Davis quotes from One Tree Hill

[to Peyton and Brooke] Well, if it isn't the other woman...and my favorite travel agent. Any other places you'd like to recommend?

Brooke

Yeah, far away from me - unless you'd like your next period to come out of your nose.

Deb

I miss Nathan.

Karen

I miss Keith.

Peyton

I miss Jake.

Brooke

I don't really miss Felix, at all. Or my parents that much. But I miss my money.

Peyton

One thing I've learned from all this Jake craziness is you've gotta grab every second you have with the people you love. Just don't forget about your "ho's".

Brooke

Come here. You are the best friend ever, P. Sawyer. But honestly: if Lucas and I couldn't make it as a couple before, what makes you think we can now?

Peyton

Well, for one thing, I wouldn't make out with him this time.

Brooke

Huh.

Peyton

And another, he's not the same guy. And you are definitely not the same girl.

Lucas

Listen, we've been so caught up in Peyton and Nathan, I feel like I haven't really checked in with you. How you doing? Without Felix around.

Brooke

Fine. He was not the guy for me.

Lucas

Well I'm sure the guy's out there somewhere.

Brooke

Maybe. But I'm scared to open up my heart like that again.

Lucas

Isn't the alternative even scarier?

Brooke

Sure I get lonely sometimes. That's hard. But I guess that's the price you pay for figuring out what you really want, right?

Lucas

And Hansel said to Gretel: Let us drop these bread crumbs so that together we can find our way home. Because losing our way would be the most cruel of things. This year I lost my way.

Nathan

And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But losing your reason for the journey...is a fate more cruel.

Peyton

The journey lasted eight months. Sometimes I traveled alone. Sometimes there were others who took the wheel... and took my heart. But when the destination was reached, it wasn't me who'd arrived. It wasn't me at all.

Brooke

And once you lose yourself, you have two choices: Find the person you used to be or lose that person completely.

Mouth

Because sometimes you have to step outside of the person you’ve been and remember the person you were meant to be. The person you wanted to be. The person you are.

Brooke

George Bernard Shaw once wrote: There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart`s desire. The other is to gain it. Clearly, Shaw had his heart broken once or twice.

Mouth

So Mr.Shaw thinks that getting your heart`s desire is a tragedy? I say he`s wrong. I mean, clearly Shaw never kissed Erica Marsh.

Nathan

As far as I concerned, Shaw was a punk. 'Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No, I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure you're still alive. Because you are. And that pain you feel? That's life. The confusion and fear? That's there to remind you, that somewhere out there is something better, and that something is worth fighting for.

Haley

This year I got everything I wanted and everything I wished for. But in a way, I lost even more.

Lucas

Shaw was right. As we strain to grasp the things we desire, we strain to grasp the things we think will make our lives better: money, popularity, fame...we ignore what truly matters ... the simple things... like friendship, family, love. The things we probably already had.

Peyton

Yes, losing your heart`s desire is tragic. But gaining your heart`s desire? That`s all you can hope for. This year I wished for love...to immerse myself in someone else and to wake a heart long afraid to feel. My wish was granted. And if having that is tragic, then give me that tragedy. Because I wouldn`t give it back for the world.

Brooke

[walks in on Nathan and Peyton involved in a tickle-fight] Well, well. First Lucas, then Jake and now Nathan... I guess "slutty" is in season.

Peyton

And why is Bitch being a Brooke?

Brooke

Because! I'm leaving tomorrow for the summer, possibly forever, and my best friend is off giving interviews and having psuedo-innocent foreplay with kind-of married guys.

Brooke

LUCAS! Do not make me join you!

Lucas

Uh, a little privacy here.

Brooke

No, you've been in the shower forever! By the time I even get in the water it's gonna be...[Checks water] cold! Are you taking a cold shower?!

Lucas

No, the hot water-

Brooke

Gross! You are! You know what? Next wet dream, tell Peyton I said 'Hi'. Ew!

Brooke

[Talking to herself] Well... I'll see you Brooke, have a nice summer. Oh thanks everybody...

Lucas

Talking to yourself?

Brooke

What is your summer job driving a cab?

Lucas

I put your stuff in the car.

Brooke

So I guess this is goodbye...

Brooke

Tell me that was a goodbye kiss...

Lucas

I wanna be with you Brooke.

Brooke

What?

Lucas

I'm sorry. I know we're friends. It's just how I feel.

Brooke

What about Peyton's stuff?

Lucas

I keep that stuff as a reminder of how badly I screwed up things... with you. To remind myself that if I ever got a second chance... I'd never let you go again.

Brooke

I don't know what to say. I um... I gotta go...

Lucas

Brooke! Do you think you could ever-

Brooke

Lucas... I'm sorry. I gotta go... Bye.

Lucas

Have a nice summer Brooke.

Lucas

Look, I know it wasn’t fair, how I told you I wanted to be with you when your cab was just parked right outside. I just saw you slipping away and I guess I panicked.

Brooke

It’s OK. Really. It is. I actually had the whole summer to think about this and I thought we could totally have a summer-like fling, just in the fall. And non-exclusive.

Lucas

Non-exclusive. How does that work?

Brooke

Well, we hang out, we go to movies, we have fun.

Lucas

Do we kiss?

Brooke

You bet your ass we kiss.

Lucas

Do we do more than kiss?

Brooke

Maybe. But we also date other people.

Haley

I'm usually one of those people who likes the first day of school. You know, new pens; new book; new backpack.

Brooke

A nerd.

Haley

Exactly!

Lucas

Brooke, this isn't what it looks like. Anyways, I don't know why you are so upset.

Brooke

You're kidding, right?

Lucas

You're the one that wanted to be non-exclusive. I'm just doing what you wanted.

Brooke

What I wanted? I wanted you to fight for me! I wanted you to say that there was no one else that you could ever be with and that you'd rather be alone than without me. I wanted the Lucas Scott from the beach that night telling the world that he's the one for me.

Lucas

How was I supposed to know that?

Brooke

You just are.

Brooke

Bevin, what the hell was going through your size two brain?!

You said we could trade.

Brooke

Why is she wearing my necklace?

Because that was part of the trade.

Brooke

Okay, why would you trade your third pick and my necklace, for Rachel's fifth pick?

Duh! Brooke, five is more than three. Oh, it made total sense when Rachel explained it.

Brooke

Right

Haley

Oh, where did we go so wrong?

Brooke

Well, I slept with Chris Keller and you went on tour with him.

Haley

When did we start letting boys dictate our happiness?

Brooke

I was 9.
