Julian Baker quotes from One Tree Hill

Chase

Hey, Jamie! How you doin', buddy?

Jamie

Do I know you?

Chase

Dude! Who are you, Victoria Davis? It's me, Chase. Bartender from Tric. Well, bar manager. I built you that snow fort in Utah.

Jamie

Oh, right. Hey!

Chase

So, listen your mom had something come up, so we're supposed to pick you up today. Are you ready?

Jamie

Yeah, I don't think so...Well, I'm kinda hungry. Do you have any snacks?

Chase

Um, I got some gum in the car.

Jamie

Ok, so you expect me to get in your car and take candy from a stranger? Yeah, I'm gonna have to pass.

Hey, Jamie. Remember me? I'm Mia. I work at Red Bedroom Records.

Jamie

Oh, yeah! Hey. You're really good friends with my mom, huh?

Yeah, that's right! I am really good friends with your mom.

Jamie

So, if you're really good friends with my mom, how come you weren't in Utah?

You make a good point.

Jamie

No offence, but considering my history, I'm gonna have to pass up on you too.

Julian

Jamie Scott. Dude, your mom left me a message to pick you up. You ready?

Jamie

Yeah, sure. Let's go.

Julian

Hey.

Chase

Man, that kid hates me.

I didn't even get invited to Utah.

Jamie

Where do babies come from?

Julian

Stork Bro.

Jamie

Weak

Jamie

Aunt Brooke Do you know where Babies come from?

Brooke

Not From Me.

Brooke

It’s beautiful. But is this okay? I mean with everything going on this wouldn’t be selfish?

Julian

No, and you know why? Because years from now when we look back on this moment we’re not going to remember the trouble with your company or the bad press, or even your mom being in jail. We’re just going to remember how great our wedding was.

Brooke

You think so?

Julian

I know so.

I've been avoiding it now for a while, but my back is done. So, I'm gonna finish this beer, then I'm gonna go home and tell my wife that I'm done playing.

Julian

Wow. That's huge. When did you decide that?

Just this second. Haley's pregnant. Clay and Quinn are recovering, and I didn't even know my own son liked baseball.

Julian

Besides hat glove belongs on the hand of someone who loves the game. Me, I used to stand out in right field and chase butterflies. Trust me, the glove respects what I'm doing here.

Nathan

I'm sure it does. Probably doesn't respect that you brought it here in a purse though.

Julian

That's a man bag.

Nathan

If that's your story.

Julian

How are you feeling today, beautiful?

Brooke

Not very beautiful.

Julian

Oh, okay I’m gonna grab a mirror. Your reflection should take care of that.

Brooke

Stop. Not feeling very good about myself right now.

Julian

You want to talk about it?

Brooke

What’s there to talk about its gone. Clothes over Bros, everything I worked so hard to build, its all gone.

Julian

Not all of it.

Brooke

Julian, I signed everything away.

Julian

Hey come here. Tell me something, why was Clothes over Bros so successful? Actually, I’ll answer that. It’s because of you. Every design, every detail, every idea came from somewhere inside of you. And that’s still there you can’t sign it away.

Brooke

Clothes over Bros, was me. Without it, I don’t really know who I am anymore.

Julian

Well, good news. Today is Halloween. Even though its a highly over rated creepy witch holiday, the one perk that it is you don’t know who you are. You can be anyone you want today.

Julian

Hey, Clay. It's "J." J-man.

Clay

Jamie. What's up, little man? I heard you found a frog.

Julian

Um, no. It's Julian. Uh, Baker. Brooke's fiancé. The movie guy. We hung out in Utah...Wait. Jamie found a frog?

Clay

No. Uh, not busy.

Julian

Okay, well, I...I'll see you later, then. (to alex ending the call) Yes! He said yes! Yes!

Julian

So, I’ve been thinking about this whole being happy thing, and I feel like people get lost when they think of happiness as a destination.

Brooke

Like, how do you mean?

Julian

We’re always thinking that someday we’ll be happy; we’ll get that car or that job or that person in our lives that’ll fix everything. But happiness is a mood, and it’s a condition, not a destination. It’s like being tired or hungry, it’s not permanent. It comes and goes, and that’s okay. And I feel like if people thought of it that way, they’d find happiness a lot more often.

Brooke

So you think it's okay to be a little miserable every now and then? Even when you have great things in your life?

Julian

Is it okay to be a little hungry now and then?

Brooke

Happiness is a mood, not a destination. I like that.

Brooke

You know, everything that's happened...Maybe it's okay in a way. I learned the important people, the important things, they don't go away. You're still here.

Julian

And I'm never gonna leave.

Julian

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."

Brooke

Did you seriously just quote "hitch"?

Julian

Yeah, because it's a really great quote. Life is about breathtaking moments like this. Let's take the plunge.

Julian

I know you wanted to go to outer space, but due to budgetary restrictions, I thought maybe I could bring the moon to you.

Brooke

It's beautiful.

Julian

It's made of cheese, you know.

Brooke

Oh?

Julian

At least that's what they say.

Brooke

"They"?

Julian

Yeah, you know, the people that say those kinds of things.

Brooke

This one actually never made it onto the list because I didn't think it was possible.

Julian

Outer space? No, I'm pretty sure it was on...

Brooke

No. Finding a man who adores me as much as you do...And getting to keep him forever.

Julian

So, you had a good day?

Brooke

If it's affirmation you're fishing for, Mr. Baker, fish no more. I'm sorry I've been so up and down lately.They say the only thing that's worse than being poor is being rich and then poor. And I certainly haven't handled it well.

Julian

They?

Brooke

Mm-hmm. You know, the people that say those kinds of things. They would probably also say that I'm still richer than I've ever been...Because no matter how much money I have in my bank account, I know that my dreams can still come true because I'm with you.

Julian

That's my girl.

Brooke

And it didn't even come from "Hitch."

Julian

You should know that...I plan on making every one of your dreams come true, for richer or poorer, even the last one

Brooke

Which one's that?

Julian

I will give you a baby, Brooke Davis. Whatever it takes --fertility, adoption...Kidnapping...I can't wait to have a family with you.

Brooke

J'adore.

Julian

Wow. One day, and you're already speaking French?

Brooke

Mm.And I've already picked out my favorite french word.

Julian

What?

Brooke

Fiancé.

Julian

You'll have to learn the word for "husband" soon.

Brooke

Not soon enough.

Brooke

Julian

Julian

I can do it.

Brooke

Help him.

Julian

I can do it.

Brooke

Julian, he's just a boy.

Julian

I can get you out, Brooke!

Brooke

Julian, save him,and then save me.Please?He's just a boy.[ Voice breaking ]And he loves you, and so do I.

Julian

I won't leave you here.

Brooke

I know. Now go.

Brooke

Hi.

Julian

So what was so important that I had to come all the way down here?

Brooke

Well, I was looking at this earlier, and I realized I needed to tell you something right away. I love you. I mean, I really, really love you.

Brooke

This is how you spent your last night of freedom?

Julian

You’re only getting married once, Brooke. I wanted it to be perfect.

Brooke

It is. Unbelievably perfect.
