“We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has only happened once, and that's why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment of it.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“Cula su naelektrisala vrhove prstiju kojim sam joj doticao kozu i pratio besprekornu liniju glatkih ramena, tragajuci uzalud za malom, najmanjom greskom. Mirisala je na Indiju, na breskvu, na izvor, biseri su virili iz tek odskrinute skoljke njenih usana, osetio sam u bradi laki drhtaj, jeku jedne davne groznice za koju sam mislio da umire kad te obuzme i da se vise ne moze vratiti ako je jednom prebolis.
Da, zeleo sam je, jako sam je zeleo...
Dodirnuo sam joj mali prst na nozi, bezuspesno pokusao da nadlanicom uklonim beleg iz detinjstva sa njenog levog kolena, udubio se u cudni raspored sicusnih mladeza na tilu vitkih ledja...I trgao se.Uplasen...Koliko to na njoj ima tajnih mesta koja bih zeleo da poljubim? Ali ne sad. Jednom. Mozda...
Ja sam momak staromodan. Prevazidjen. Po mojoj religiji, moja zelja je samo pola zelje...
Lepo sanjaj, mali misu nabareni. Ko zna da li ces mi ikad vise biti tako blizu? Mozda cu se kajati, mozda cu morati da se napijem svaki put kad se setim ove noci...Neka...
Ako ikad budemo spavali zajedno, to ce biti onako kako sam zamislio. I kako Bog zapoveda. I niko nece spavati za vreme tog spavanja...
Laku noc, njene pospane oci...

“They didn’t agree on much. In fact, they didn’t agree on anything. They fought all the time and challenged each other ever day. But despite their differences, they had one important thing in common. They were crazy about each other.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook
