- There's no shame in being afraid. Hell, we're all afraid. What you gotta do is figure out what you're afraid of because when you put a face on it, you can beat it. Better yet, you can use it.- whitey
- E.E. Cummings once wrote; To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
- Fear changes everything.- Jake.
- John Steinbeck once wrote "It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live for our death brings no pleasure on the world."
- As happens sometimes, a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. Then gradually time awakened again and moved sluggishly on. - Lucas.
- What a frightening thing the human is, a mass of gauges and dials and registers, and we can read only a few and those perhaps not accurately. - Lucas.
- Some people believe that ravens guide travelers to their destinations. Others believe that the sight of a solitary raven is considered good luck while more than one raven together predicts trouble ahead.- Lucas.
- We could all use a little hope sometimes, you know? That feeling that everything is gonna be okay, and that someone is there to help make sure of that.”
- My name is Lucas Scott; I am a senior at Tree Hill High School. I play basketball, at least I used to. I have a girlfriend, at least I used to. And, I have a best friend. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it’s a lot like your world. Maybe it’s nothing like it. But, if you look closely you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way; someone trying to find their place; someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who’s struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied at barely getting by. But, that feeling is a lie and if you just hold on; just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find the way and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes, someone to help us hear the music in the world. To remind us that it won’t always be this way. That someone is out there, and that someone will find you.
- Everyone once in a while people step up. They rise above themselves and sometimes they surprise you. Sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard. But if you look close enough you can find hope in the words of children. In the bars of a song and in the eyes of someone you love. And if you’re lucky, and if you’re the luckiest person on this entire planet- the person you love decides to love you back.
