Peyton Sawyer quotes from One Tree Hill

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

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.

Jake

I need you to forget about me, and move on, okay? You're too amazing to carry this around. You're too full of greatness... and I love you too much. :[They cling to each other]. I have to go.

Peyton

No!

Jake

I can't have Jenny be with Nikki.

Peyton

Jake. Thank you.

Jake

You know I could've held you in my arms forever? It still wouldn't have been long enough.

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.

Peyton

(Peyton wakes up from a horrible dream and discovers someone) Okay, this is crap.

What's that?

Peyton

You, being here. cause one thing in my dream is I'm awake now.

You sure about that? (Puts her bowl on the table) Besides guilt never sleeps.

Peyton

Guilt? Oh, oh so that's it you're what... my subconcious?

No no, I'm just like the little voice inside your head... only if I'm not part of the inside now.

Peyton

Fine! I'm talking to myself. Sure, I'll play along, hey, what are you doing here?

Well, I'm busy having a snack and see it was kind of great actually. I eat and you get fat! Oh, hey! I fix this for you. (She shows Peyton her own drawing and changed some of the words from People always Leave to People always Grieve)

Peyton

(Peyton saw the words changed up by accident) People alway Grieve? You spelled it wrong.

Yeah well if I spelled it wrong then... so have you.

Peyton

Who knew my subconcious could be such a bitch.

No no, we're a bitch, try to keep up, Okay? Oh, hey! Check it out! (Shows Peyton to her very own closet) Closet full of anxiety, get it?

Peyton

Listen, Ghost of christmas goth, what'll I have to do or say to get rid of you?

That's easy... Where's your bracelet?

Peyton

Look, I hate to ask, OK? But over the summer you kinda promised that if I ever wanted to go and find Ellie you would come with me.

Lucas

Yeah, I remember. Did you find her?

Peyton

[nods] And I think I wanna go see her.

Lucas

Today?

Peyton

Right now actually, cause if I don't go I never will and I need to. Will you go?

Lucas

Sure. A promise is a promise.

Peyton

So The Davis loves Lucas huh?

Brooke

I really really do love that big piece of sexy.

Brooke

Ahem

Peyton

Hey, Brooke

Brooke

Don't 'hey, Brooke' me. What is up with you and Hottie McHottie?

Peyton

Who? McWhat?

Brooke

Don't even try it. Please, the Fall Out Boy? I can spot him hitting - on - you from a mile away, and you were definitely returning fire.

Peyton

We talked for like 10 seconds.

Brooke

So you move fast. You should ask him to check you for lumps.

Peyton

Okay, not funny.

Brooke

What? he's a musician. He's got to have good hands.

Peyton

[After Lucas finds her, sobbing] Ow, my leg! I got cut by some glass. Lucas, I lost Brooke, I'm sorry.

Lucas

She's fine, but- you're not. We gotta get you out of here.

Peyton Sawyer

No- no I can't walk, I tried.

Lucas Scott

Okay. [gets up]

Peyton Sawyer

No! Don't leave me please, please!

Lucas Scott

I'm just gonna go block the entrance, we'll just- just hide out, okay? Hey. I'm not leaving you Peyton.

Peyton

You're always saving me.

Lucas

Somebody has got to.

Peyton

If I say "I love you," right now, will you hold it against me? 'Cause I've lost a lot of blood...come here.

Peyton

I love you Jake, I do, and you know that I love Jenny; so maybe that’s enough.

Jake

I think that only in fairy tales that’s enough Peyton.

Peyton

You know, someone told me once that there's nothing wrong with fairy tales, because everybody lives happily ever after.

Jake

Okay, listen to me, you can't just fly into Savannah and then get into my head all over again, tell me you want to stay and then ask me to marry you.

Peyton

Well, why not?

Jake

Because, I might just say yes.

Brooke

(To Peyton) I had a horrible dream last night where my best friend told me that she had feelings for my boyfriend. But; that wasn't a dream, wasn't it?

Peyton

Brooke!

Brooke

Why now, Peyton? Why would you tell me that you have feelings for Lucas now, when I have so much going on in my life? Stuff you don't even know about!

Peyton

Well, so do I. Okay, trust me. But, I didn't wish for this alright, I wished for Jake.

Brooke

Oh, right. You wished for Jake. After you wished for Pete, and then Lucas! I cannot believe this is happening again.

Peyton

It's not okay, okay? It's not! The last time...

Brooke

The last time! Do you hear yourself right now? The last time you tried to steal my boyfriend! He's on the door Peyton! He's on the DAMN DOOR UNDER ME!

Peyton

I don't wanna steal him, okay?

Brooke

But you like him.

Peyton

Brooke, I'm not gonna do anything about it. I'll just bury it. Okay?

Brooke

You can't, okay! It's out, it's like the time capsule! And, you could have buried it and not said anything to me about it. So, what is that about?

Peyton

I don't- I just wanted to be honest with you, all right! I didn't wanna make the same mistake as I did last time. And, you even said last night at TRIC that you really didn't miss him.

Brooke

( With that said, Brooke flies off the handle and slaps Peyton in the face) Don't you dare! Don't you dare twist my words around to make yourself feel like you are not a back-stabbing two faced bitch, Peyton, because you are and you know it.

Peyton

Fine. So, this is how it ends. A ten year friendship that survived two dead moms, three absentee parents, shoplifting, jail time and we can’t survive one boy.

Brooke

Not one boy. My boy!

Brooke

I want you to understand something, as far as I'm concerned this friendship is over. And, if we never speak again for the rest of our lives, that'll be fine. I gave you a second chance Peyton and you blew it.
