"A sad smile crossed her face, and..." - Quote by Nicholas Sparks

“Someday you'll find someone special again. People who've been in love once usually do. It's in their nature.”

“You have the Best Of Me.”

“Love is fragile. And we're not always its best caretakers. We just muddle through and do the best we can. And hope this fragile thing survives against all odds.”

“Life is a near-death experience.”

“And nothing can we call our own but deathAnd that small model of the barren earthWhich serves as paste and cover to our bones.For God's sake, let us sit upon the groundAnd tell sad stories of the death of kings.”

“There is no one so old as to not think they may live a day longer.”

“For the sight of the angry weather saddens my soul and the sight of the town, sitting like a bereaved mother beneath layers of ice, oppresses my heart.”

“I cannot speakIn happy tones; the tear drops on my cheekShow I am sad;But I can speakOf grace to suffer with submission meek,Until made glad.”

“First you will smile, and then you will cry -- don't say you haven't been warned.”
