There's only ONE Tree Hill
My all time favourite is the poem "Invinctus", which is heard at the end of episode 3x06"Locked hearts and hand grenades", voiceovered oleh Lucas..
“Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeoning of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishment the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.”
William Ernest Henley – “Invinctus”
Do not let your api go out, spark oleh irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life anda deserved and have never been able to reach. The world anda desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. It is yours.
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.
There will always be something to ruin our lives. It all depends on what atau which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.
Time takes it all. Whether anda want it to atau not. Time takes it all, time bears it away, and in the end, there is only darkness. Sometimes we find others in that darkness. And sometimes we lose them there again.
We all live in a house of fire. No api department to call. No way out. Just the upstairs window to look out of while the api burns down the house...with us trapped, locked in it.
Now is the time for us to shine, the time when our dreams are in reach and possibilities, vast. Now is the time for all of us to become the people we always dreamed of being. This is your world. You're here. anda matter. The world is waiting…
Graduation day, pohon bukit, hill High. A hari when we officially leave the refuge of high school and begin our real lives. But what of those lives, as we go into the world? What matters most? Is it about the things we create? The things we achieve? The awards we win? Is it about who we are when we fail? What's lebih important-what we become, atau how we become it?
Sometimes I wonder if anything is absolute anymore. Is there still right and wrong, good and bad, truth and lies? atau is everything negotiable, left to interpretation, gray? Sometimes we're forced to bend the truth, transform it, cuz we're faced with things that are not of our own making. And sometimes, things simply catch up to us…Truth is still absolute, believe that…even when that truth is hard and cold and lebih painful than anda ever imagined. And even when truth is lebih than is lebih cruel than any lie.
Do anda ever wonder if we make the moments in our lives atau the moments in our lives make us? Ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it four years, like high school? One year? An eight-week walking tour? Can your life change in a month, atau a week, atau a single day? We're always in a hurry to grow up, to go places, to get ahead…but when you're young, one jam can change everything…
Sometimes pain becomes such a huge part of your life that anda expect it to always be there…because anda can't remember a time in your life when it wasn't. But then one hari anda feel something else-something that feels wrong, only because it's so unfamiliar. And in that moment anda realize…you're happy…
Happiness comes in many forms-in the company of good friends, in the feeling anda get when anda make someone else's dream come true, atau in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because anda never know how fleeting that happiness might be…
Have anda ever wondered what marks our time here-if one life can really make an impact on the world atau if the choices we make matter? Sometimes in order to pindah forward, anda have to go back…in this case, just a few minutes…Have anda ever wondered what marks our time here-if one life can really make an impact on the world atau if the choices we make matter? I believe they do. And I believe that one man can change many lives-for better atau worse…
Most people are stronger than they know. They just forget to believe in it sometimes…
When life comes rushing at anda out of the darkness who will anda choose to face it with? Will it be someone anda trust? Will they be wise? And will their cinta for anda help them to guide anda to the light, atau will they lose their way in the darkness? Will they make noble choices? atau will that person be untested, someone new? Life comes rushing at anda from out of the darkness. When it does, is there someone in your life anda can count on -- someone who will watch over anda when anda stumble and fall, and in that moment, give anda the strength to face your fears alone?
There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment anda must choose your direction. Will anda fight to stay on the path while others tell anda who anda are? atau will anda label yourself? Will anda be honored oleh your choice? atau will anda embrace your new path? Each morning anda choose to pindah meneruskan, ke depan atau to simply give up… There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment who will anda be? Will anda let down your defenses and find solace in someone unexpected? Will anda reach out? Will anda face your greatest fears bravely atau pindah meneruskan, ke depan with faith? atau will anda succumb to the darkness in your soul?
Did anda ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? It makes anda wonder how many people have pictures of you…Did anda ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? It makes anda wonder how many people have pictures of you, how many moments of other people's lives we've been in. Were we part of someone's life when their dream came true, atau were we there when their dreams died? Did we keep trying to get in, as if we were somehow destined to be there? atau did the shot take us oleh surprise? Just think, anda could be a big part of someone else's life, and not even know it...
There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads. Afraid. Confused. Without a roadmap. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course, when faced with the unknown, most of us would rather turn around and go back. But once in awhile people push on to something better-something found just beyond the pain of going it alone and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. atau to give someone a detik chance. Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream. Because it’s only when you’re tested that anda discover who anda truly are. And it's only when you're tested that anda discover who anda can be. The person anda want to be does exist, somewhere on the other side of hard work, faith and belief, and beyond heartache and fear of what lies ahead…
My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at pohon bukit, 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. pohon bukit, 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 anda look closer, anda might see someone like you, atau someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their place. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like anda are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, unsatisfied, barely getting by. But that feeling's a lie. And if anda just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone atau something will find anda and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes-someone to help us hear the musik in their world, to remind us that it won't always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you…
Haley's vows: "Nathan, it's been berkata that there's one word that will free us from the weight and the pain of life. And that word is love. And I believe that. That doesn't mean that it hasn't been hard, atau that it won't be. It just means that I've found a stillness and a bravery in myself when I'm with you. anda make me brave. And I will cinta anda until the end of time. This I vow to anda today."
Nathan’s vows: "Last tahun we sat on the pantai and I told anda how much I loved you, and how I would always, always protect you. And that hari nobody believed that this would work. But I don't think anybody understood the cinta that I have for you. Because if they did, they would have never doubted us, so I wanted to marry anda all over again in front of most of our world. Because today, when I look into your eyes, my cinta for anda only grows-it's even stronger now. My cinta will never waiver. This I vow to you, today, and always. Forever…”
Nathan: “Someday, this pantai might wash away...the oceans may dry...the sun could dim but on that day, I'll still be loving you. Always and forever. I promise anda Haley.”
Haley: “Nathan, it's been berkata that there is one word that will free us from the weight and pain of life. And, that word is love, and I believe that. It doesn't mean that it hasn't been hard atau that it won't be. It just means that I found a stillness and bravery in myself with you. anda make me brave and I will cinta anda until the end of time. This I vow today.”
You can choose to blame your circumstances on fate atau bad luck atau bad choices. atau anda can fight back. Things aren't always going to be fair in the real world. That's just the way it is. But for the most part, anda get what anda give. Rest of your life is being shaped right now. With the dreams anda chase....The choices anda make....and the person anda decide to be. The rest of your life is a long time. And the rest of your life starts right now…
Nathan: “You know, son, there's going to be lot of times in your life, when anda are afraid.
Being afraid is okay. But if anda don't work through that fear, anda might miss out on some pretty great things…”
And Hansel berkata to Gretel: “Let us drop these breadcrumbs... so that together we find our way home. Because losing our way would be the most cruel of things.” This year…I lost my way. And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But, losing your reason for the journey... is a fate lebih cruel. And once anda lose yourself, anda have two choices: find the person anda used to be... atau lose that person completely. Because, sometimes, anda have to step outside of the person you've been. And remember the person anda were meant to be. The person anda wanted to be. The person anda are…
Someone once said; 'It’s the good girls who keep diaries. The bad girls never have the time. Me… I just wanna live a life I’m gonna remember. Even if I don’t write it down…
Much as some of us fight it, our parents have a mystical hold over us, the power to affect our thoughts and emotions the way only they can. It's a bond that changes over time, but doesn't diminish, even if they are half a world away… atau in other world entirely. It's a power we never fully understand. We're left only to wonder that when our time comes, what kind of hold will we have on our children?
Do anda ever wonder if we make the moments in our lives atau if the moments in our lives make us? If anda could go back and change one thing about your life, would you? And if anda did, would that change make your life better? atau would that change ultimately break your heart? atau break the jantung of another? atau would anda choose an entirely different path? atau would anda change just one thing, just one moment? One moment that you've always wanted back…
Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small like when we do a bad thing for a good reason. Some are bigger like when anda let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain of regret oleh making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret because we're looking meneruskan, ke depan to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past, and sometimes we bury our regret oleh promising to change your own ways. But, our biggest regrets are not for the things we did…but, for the things we didn't do. Things we didn't say that could've save someone that we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that's headed their way…
Life comes at us from out of the darkness. And at times we can struggle to find the courage to face it. When life comes rushing at anda from our of the darkness, who will anda choose to face it with? Will it be someone anda trust? Will they be wise? And will their cinta for anda help them to guide anda to the light? atau will they lose their way in the darkness? Will they make noble choices? atau will that person be someone untested, someone new? Life comes rushing at anda from out of the darkness, when it does…is there someone in your life anda can count on? Someone who will watch over anda when anda stumble and fall? And in that moment, give anda the strength to face your fears alone?
There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment, anda must choose your direction. Will anda fight to stay on path? Will others tell anda who anda are? atau will anda label yourself? Will anda be haunted oleh your choice? atau will anda embrace your new path? Each morning anda choose to pindah meneruskan, ke depan atau simply give up. There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment who will anda be? Will anda let down your defenses, and find solace in someone unexpected? Will anda reach out? Will anda face your greatest fear bravely? And pindah meneruskan, ke depan with faith. atau will anda succumb to the darkness in your soul?
At this moment there are six billion, five hundred and two million, eight hundred and sixty seven thousand, one hundred and twenty people in the world, give atau take a few and sometimes all anda need is one…for better atau for worse…Shakespeare wrote: ”Love is not cinta which alters when it alteration finds. It is an ever fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken. cinta alters not with time’s brief hours and weeks, but bears it out even to the edge of doom.”
There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our first great sorrow, when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and healed, to have despaired and have recovered hope.
Most of our life is a series of images. They pass us oleh like towns on the highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens. And we know that this instant is lebih than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever…
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag and begin slitting throats…
Stepping up…It's a simple concept. It basically means to rise above yourself, to do a little more, to tampil anda something special. Something like this…Lucas is gone, but that doesn't mean the season is over. As a matter of fact, I say it's just beginning. anda might want to stay out of my way for a while. Life's funny sometimes, can push pretty hard like when anda fall in cinta with someone but they forget to cinta anda back, like when your best friend and your boyfriend leave anda alone, like when anda pull the trigger atau light the flame and anda can't take it back. Like I said, in sports they call this “stepping up”. In life, I call it “pushing back” anda know it's been berkata that we just don't recognize the significant moments of our lives while they're happening. We grow complacent with ideas atau things atau people and we take them for granted and it's usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from anda that you've realized how wrong you've been that anda realized how much anda need it, how much anda cinta it. God, I cinta this game. anda ever heard the expression “the best things in live are free”? Well, that expression is true. Every once in a while, people step up they rise above themselves…sometimes they surprise anda and sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard but if anda look close enough, anda can find hope in the words of children, in the bars of the song and in the eyes of someone anda love. And if you're lucky, if you're the luckiest person on this entire planet, the person anda cinta decides to cinta anda back…

And the little prince berkata to the man: “Grownups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always explaining things to them."
You’re the reason and your passions are the rudder…and the sails of your seafaring soul. If either be broken, anda can but toss and drift, atau else be held at a standstill in mid-seas. For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and passion, unattended, is a flame that burn to its own destruction.
Here's my philosophy on dating. It's important to have somebody that can make anda laugh, somebody anda can trust, somebody that, y'know, turns anda on...And it's really, really important that these three people don't know each other.
Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone and do not be troubled about the future, for it has yet to come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering…
At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just not facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world, six billion souls. And sometimes…all anda need is one…

Looking back on what I berkata all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I've come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way anda wanted them to is a measure of a successful life, then some would say I'm a failure. The important thing is not to be pahit over life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past, and recognize that every hari won't be sunny. And when anda find yourself lost in the darkness of despair remember, it's only in the black of night that anda see the stars, and those stars lead anda back home. So don't be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble and fall, because most of the time the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare anda the most. Maybe you'll get everything anda wish for. Maybe you'll get lebih than anda ever could have imagined. Who knows where life will take you. The road is long and in the end, the journey is the destination…
Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred, how did it find us? Did it steal into our lives atau did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us that we now send our children into the world like we send young men to war, hoping for their aman, brankas return, but knowing that some would be lost along the way. When did we lose our way? Consumed oleh the shadows. Swallowed whole oleh the darkness. Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?
Change comes like a little wind that ruffles the curtains at dawn, and it comes like a stealthy perfume of wildflowers hidden in the grass…
Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact…
There is no despair so absolute as that which comes from the first moments of our first great sorrow when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and healed, to have despaired and recovered hope…

Remember tonight, for it is the beginning of always. A promise, like a reward for persisting through life so long alone. A belief in each other and the possibility of love. A decision to ignore simply rise above the pain in the past. A covenant, which at once binds two souls and yet severs prior ties. The celebration of the chance taken and the challenge that lies ahead. For two will always be stronger than one. Like a team braced against the tempests of the world. And cinta will always be the guiding force in our lives. For tonight is mere formality. Only an announcement to the world of feelings long held, promises made long yang lalu in the sacred luar angkasa in our hearts…

I thought I knew you. But I guess it's easier to see what we want than to look for the truth. anda think anda know me but anda don't. And that means anda don't know what I can do. anda see me as someone populer and has all the jawaban but that's not true. I may not always know what I'm doing but I'll try to make things better. And when I make a mistake, because face it, we all do, I promise I'll ask for your help. I can't do this alone, but if you'll take a chance on me, we can do great things together. I promise if anda believe in me, I'll find the courage to reach for your every dream…
