I haven't moved on, I haven't let go, and that is why I am clinching onto the one thing I hold dear in my life. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Faith that things will work out for the best … that whatever sent us off in different directions is the very same thing that will bring us back together. ~ Dawson’s Creek

She has a hard time trusting people -- men, especially -- and who can blame her? ~ Dawson’s Creek

Dawson: I was so looking forward to it all. All I could do was think ahead to this day when it would feel right for us to give it another try. For the first time in forever, you and me… it seemed so possible. It seemed right around the corner. But he died. And it all went away. I was living in this warm and fuzzy world of daydreams, and I got yanked right out of it. I have no idea how to get back there, Jo. And what scares me the most is maybe I never will. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Joey: I have to admit that I fell in love twice. First was with you, and second was with the person you became when you were already mine. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Pacey: She's so beautiful that every time you look at her ... your heart melts, your knees shake, and you know right then and there without any reservation that there's order and meaning to the universe. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Everyone wants life to run smoothly, but it's the mistakes that make life interesting. ~ Dawson’s Creek

I think everyone feels alone and wants to be normal but I don't think everyone ever really does. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Dawson: Believe me, you're far from nothing. ~ Dawson’s Creek

To my parents who taught me that love doesn't conquer all. That it ends. And then it begins again. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Jack: I am a good person, but when people look at me they see something evil, and you have no idea how bad that hurts. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Because life - much like a French movie - rarely makes any sense, but when it's right, it's right. And you don't question it. You don't think, you don't ponder. You just exist. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Everything, I mean love, romance, relationships ... it all falls together perfectly, and its incredible ... it's those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Audrey: You have to seize these opportunities. Stop wasting your time because you never know when you will get them again. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Joey: I was standing there, completely ready to say all the things I never said, then he pulls some Jedi mind-trick and suddenly I can't even remember who I am. ~ Dawson’s Creek

'Cause, I don't know ... in a world where the people who raise you only end up letting you down ... it's an honor and a privilege to have you guys to turn to. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Pacey: You always tease the one you love. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Maybe it's the only way that we can finally stand on our own. Ya know, to hurt each other so much that we have no choice but to let go ... maybe otherwise we never would. ~ Dawson’s Creek

I guess everyone has someone who challenges them and makes them shoot for something just beyond their reach. You're that person for me. ~ Dawson’s Creek

I know that things between us are pretty much beyond repair right now. And I wouldn't ever presume to try and make everything better with a conversation, so that's not what this is -- but I just wanted to tell you, I wanted to say ... I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the pain it caused you. But mostly, I'm sorry for my part in it -- I'm sorry because I miss our friendship. And however far off it may be, I look forward to the day that we can be friends again. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Brooks: And remember, you're still young enough to fall in and out of love a few more times before you get it right.
Dawson: That doesn't sound very fun.
Brooks: It isn't ... and it is ... and it isn't. But it's worth it. Every single time.
~ Dawson’s Creek

Falling in love. Sharing your life with someone. Giving your heart to another person to the extent that losing them could potentially destroy you. It's such a crazy thing to do. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Anticipation is the purest form of pleasure. And the most reliable. And that while the things that actually happened to you would invariably disappoint you, the things that never happened to you would never dim, never fade. They'd always be engraved on your heart with sort of a sweet sadness to them. ~ Dawson’s Creek

I can blow your mind in a million different ways that you've never even imagined -- you knew that when you looked at me and knew that it would be different with me. That's why you're not turning around, because you're nervous about what you might feel. ~ Dawson’s Creek

A lot of people walk in and out of my life, but you're one of the only people I ever really wanted to stick around. ~ Dawson’s Creek

I think sometimes you have to lose someone completely before you can figure out what they really mean to you. ~ Dawson’s Creek

Maybe we didn't talk this summer, and who knows? Maybe we'll find ourselves talking less and less as time goes on and life gets more in the way ... but I don't feel it 'cause you're with me everywhere I go. ~ Dawson’s Creek

What's real -- it terrifies all of us. If you think that anything of any value in this world comes at an easier price -- you're wrong. ~ Dawson’s Creek

I fill my days with memories of him. I remember how he used to look at me as if I was his most valuable treasure? Has he found a new treasure? I can't help but wonder if we will be able to find our way back to each other. The road seems so very long and my head is crowded with such a dark thought. I feel our bond grows weaker by the day and I'm powerless to stop it. ~ Dawson’s Creek
