Julian Baker quotes from One Tree Hill

Brooke

So, I drop-kicked the company to my mother, and I washed my hands of everything.

Julian

I admire you, letting it all go and starting over like that.

Brooke

Well, I don't know if it was brave, or if I was just a total coward.

Julian

It's brave. I have a similar situation.

Brooke

You have an evil bitch mother?

Julian

No, perennially disappointed father. I took my mom's last name so I could make it on my own, but time and again, I go back to my dad for help. And time and again, he makes me feel like a failure. But one of these days.

Brooke

Well, here's to that day.

Brooke

So, can I get you anything else? Another drink or.

Julian

I'd love to, but I should probably get going. Um, this was nice, Brooke.

Brooke

Yes, it was. Julian, what was this?

Julian

Um. We should probably just say this was what it was, 'cause anything else gets complicated.

Brooke

Perfect.

Julian

I'll see myself out. This has to be business, right? I mean, with Peyton and.

Brooke

This should be business.

Julian

We can't just ...I mean, I kiss you, and then it gets.

Brooke

Definitely. It would be.

Julian

It would be.

Brooke

Yes.

Julian

I want you to have this. :[he give her the jacket]

Brooke

And what is this supposed to mean?

Julian

It means we're going steady.

Brooke

This isn't a game,julian.

Julian

I know. When I first got here everyone thought I came for a girl... the girl in the book. But I only came here to make a movie. But now it turns out everyone was right. I am here for the girl in the book... the other girl.

Brooke

maybe we should continue this in my bedroom...

preferably without our clothes.

Julian

Does that look like Mr.Popular to you? I know you're not the person you were in high school 'cause i'm not either. And i'm glad 'cause... that kid would've never stood a chance with you.

Brooke

Were you really a Mathlete?

Julian

I was THE Mathlete. But, i'm not anymore, and I don't want high school, Brooke. I'm sorry to breakdown your feelings but was meant to describe who the character was before anyone got to know the real person. :[(Julian gives Brooke a list)] That's the breakdown describing the Brooke Davis I'm looking for.

Brooke

"Gorgeous brunette with an amazing energy and smile. Funny. Intelligent. Kind-hearted. Strong-headed. Simple. Complicated. Motherly. Childish. Tough. Sensitive. Beautiful. Way cooler than she was in high school."

Julian

That girl has been nearly impossible to find, but worth every second of the wait.

Julian

Well look at it this way, Luke: you lost a movie and a huge production bonus, and I lost a movie, a huge production bonus and two amazing girls.

Lucas

Yeah, what happened with Brooke anyway?

Julian

Well, we started out just having fun, but then she told me she needed it to be more than that, so I made it more than that, at which point she freaked out and said that she just wanted to have fun. Which made it really not fun for either of us.

Brooke

Did you come to say goodbye?

Julian

Well,I was thinking maybe this didn't have to be goodbye.

Brooke

What does that mean?

Julian

You said you didn't want to be a footnote in someone else's love story. Well,maybe it's time we write our own epic love story. This time tomorrow,we could be walking on a beach in malibu.

Brooke

But what about sam? I can't leave her here.

Julian

Yeah,I thought you'd say that. And I agree.

Brooke

Julian.

Julian

Look, I know you're gonna come up with a million reasons why you shouldn't. So I'm just gonna give you this one why you should. I love you... Brooke Davis. Come with me.

Julian

You haven’t trusted me since I got here.

Peyton

Because it seemed like you came here with an axe to grind.

Julian

Maybe I did, but somewhere along the line this place changed me. Brooke changed me. I love her, and I want Sam to come with us so that we can be a family.

Julian

Hi. I saw the light on I thought maybe Brooke was here. I’m Julian.

Victoria

Of course you are. Victoria Davis.

Julian

Of course you are. Would you ask Brooke to call me please?

Victoria

You do realize the name of the company is Clothes Over Bros, yes?

Julian

My father always made me feel like I wasn’t good enough. Any time I had any success he would remind me of my failures. I see that in Brooke. She’s so talented and good-hearted and beautiful, but she carries around this feeling that she’s not good enough. And she has you to thank you for that. Good work.

Victoria

Are you finished?

Julian

No, not yet. I love your daughter. I’m in love with her. And one of these days she’s gonna love me back and when she does I want you to understand something: you’re either gonna learn to be nice to her, or you wont be in her life. Nice to meet you Victoria. Feels like I’ve known you all my life.

Julian

You need to go home, Brooke. You’ve been awake for the better part of the last four days and it’s not healthy.

Brooke

I need to be here when she wakes up.

Brooke

What is that?

Julian

Every fashion magazine I could find.

Brooke

But you just said…

Julian

Yeah, but I knew when I said that you needed to go home that you’d say you needed to be here when Peyton woke up, because you’re stubborn, Brooke Davis.

Brooke

You don’t know me.

Julian

I think I do.

Brooke

She needs to wake up.

Brooke

So I guess you have to be getting back to L.A.

Julian

Yeah, we’re prepping the movie.

Brooke

You know, I haven’t even asked what it’s about.

Julian

You know: boy meets girl, boy loses girl. Anyway, it was great getting to spend time with you Brooke, even given the circumstances.

Brooke

You told me that someday I’d be ready to let someone in. I think today might be someday.

Julian

If this was a movie, you’d kiss me right now.

Brooke

No, I’d say I love you, and then I’d kiss you….I love you.

Mouth

Take a look at yourself in a mirror who do you see looking back?

Haley

Is it the person you want to be?

Dan

Or is there someone else you were meant to be, the person you should have been, but fell short of?

Is someone telling you you can’t or won’t? Because you can.

Chase

Believe that love is out there.

Nathan

Believe that dreams come true every day. Because they do.

Peyton

Sometimes happiness doesn’t come from money or fame or power. Sometimes happiness comes from good friends and family and the quiet nobility of leading a good life.

Julian

Believe that dreams come true every day. Because they do.

Brooke

Believe that dreams come true every day. Because they do.

Peyton

So take a look in that mirror and remind yourself to be happy because you deserve to be. Believe that.

Lucas

And believe that dreams come true every day. Because they do.

Julian

The beach is becoming our spot.

Brooke

I don't think you can call it a spot if it's every other month.

Julian

I guess that's fair.

Brooke

No, I'm sorry. Do you remember how it was in the beginning? Even when we were apart, we'd talk every night, and my heart raced with every text, and every time my phone rang I hoped it would be you.

Julian

I still do that with you.

Brooke

Yeah?

Julian

Mm-hmm.

Brooke

Peyton used to say 'People always leave'. Who knew she was actually talking about her stupid ass. I'm just lonely.

Julian

We're here now.

Brooke

I know. And it's amazing...And it's what I wished for.

Julian

Wanna know what I wish for?

Brooke

Mm-hmm.

Julian

Skinny dipping.

Brooke

You did not!

Julian

Uh-huh I did. You coming or what?

Brooke

That's what she said.

Brooke

So how's the movie coming?

Julian

Well, we ran into a couple issues with work visas and permits..

Brooke

Meaning?

Julian

Meaning it's going to be more like ten months; not eight.

Brooke

You're killing me.

Julian

I know, but I do have some good news. I decided not to produce the movie.

Brooke

Why? That was an important movie.

Julian

No, it was a lucrative movie, not an important one. I want to make important movies. Plus there’s this girl that I’m in love with and I couldn’t stand to be away from her another day.

Brooke

I'm scared. What if we ruin it?

Julian

What are you talking about?

Brooke

The feeling that I get when I see you after a month. The way my heart aches when I smell your skin. I don't want it to go away.

Julian

It won't. We won't let it.
