Dawson's Creek 11...

You’re not here and I know that I said that it’s okay that you didn’t come this weekend but you know what? It’s not okay because I miss you. And there was this guy tonight and he was hitting on me or at least I think he was hitting on me. And he was perfectly nice and I blew him off and I’m not even sure why. But I’m pretty sure it was because of you. And… I’ve spent these past couple months acting like you were just going to show up outside my door one day, but you’re not. You are out there following your dreams which is what I want for you, Dawson, I think it’s time that I let you go. And it’s really hard for me to do because I know that there’s a part of me that will be in love with you for the rest of my life. But this whole running in place and day dreaming is just not healthy for either of us. So this is me cutting the cord, this is me doing what I should have done three months ago. Say goodbye.

you know, i don't think i'll ever be happy. wherever i am, i'll always wish i'm someplace else. whatever i have, i'll always want something different.

These opportunities that keep presenting themselves, they're presenting themselves to you, not to me. Not to anybody else. And all you have to do is just seize them. Stop wasting your time wishing that you were somebody else. And just grab hold of what have coming to you. Because you never know when it's gonna come your way again.

Joey: You know, you're really annoying. 'Cause every time I’m ready to do the smart, sensible thing, you go and you say something that makes me...
Wilder: Makes you what?
Joey: Not want to go away

She has a hard time trusting people. men especially, and who can blame her?

There are people in my life who give me comfort. When the going gets tough, as it invariably does, I can count on them for a shoulder to cry on - they will lift me up when I fall, they will hold me in their arms as I cry and tell me, "Everything’s going to be okay." I am so thankful for those people. They are priceless

Do you know how much will happen to you in the next two years if you do them right? Your heart will swell and break a hundred times. what you need right now is someone who not only understands what you're going through, but who can also go through it with you.

Just shut up, ok? You are getting off easy here and you know it. I'm not gonna let you put up some false protest so that you can feel better about yourself. I am ending it now. That's how I know that it's over. You didn't say a word, Pacey, not a word. 'Cause you don't have the energy to fight it and... I deserve better than that.

But you're not aware of his evil alter ego. You're in love

Joey: -- I said I don't care about that stuff!
Pacey: I want you to care, Joey. I don't want you to just accept it. Because right now, we're not just trapped on a boat, we're trapped in this relationship, and I can't take it anymore. Being with you makes me feel like I'm nothing. I don't do it to myself. You do it to me every day and you don’t even see it. That's why I flinch when you get near me. That's why I can't bring myself to touch you, why the last thing I want is to touch you...
Joey: Are you done?
Pacey: I can keep going if you want.
Joey: No Pacey, you can stop. And then, you can just go to hell.

Every good thing that's happened in my life I've essentially managed to talk out of existence. I'm not gonna do that this time

You're the girl in the 19th century novel who would perversely refuse to marry for money no matter how much it would raise her station in life, the girl who would say yes, sleep on it... recover her moral principles, and then break the guy's heart the next morning, which, of course, only increases your appeal. Principles are incredibly sexy, you know.

One of these days you're gonna have to take a gigantic fact check, my friend, all right? She didn't mistake you or anybody, okay? This girl is head-in-the-clouds, 100% ass-backwards in love with you, all right?

and we help each other to realize that everything we want to be; we already are

it was pouring rain, your mom came to pick us up, but the car was, like, way across the street so you grabbed my hand and we ran for it. And it was probably only about 10 seconds or so, but when we got in the car, all I could think about was the fact that... you had held my hand

Oh, right. Because that's what it always is, isn't it? I don't like you, therefore, it must be because some guy broke my heart. It just can't be because you're objectionable in any way.

if there's just one piece of advice i can give you, it's this - when there's something you really want, fight for it, don't give up no matter how hopeless it seems. and when you've lost hope, ask yourself if 10 years from now, you're gonna wish you gave it just one more shot. because the best things in life, they don't come free

I am a firm believer that things happen for a reason. And things have a wonderful habit of working themselves out regardless of how you may plan them to the contrary.

Joey: I'm not a quitter.
Heston: People love saying that. It's like they saw it in some movie once and they liked the way it sounded.

Let's make believe I've gotten myself into an impossible situation. Pretend like I've... I'm sorta falling or have fallen for the worst person I could ever have fallen for. What would you tell me to do?

Without fear, there would be no accomplishment. No testing of our limitations.

someone out there is meant to be the love of your life, your best friend, your soulmate, the one you can tell your dreams to. he'll smile at you when you tell him, but he'll never laugh at your heart. he'll brush the hair out of your eyes and send you flowers when you least expect it. he'll call you to tell you goodnight before you get into bed or just because he is thinking about you. he'll be bursting to talk to you each morning just to hear the sound of your voice. he'll look into your eyes and tell you that you are the most beautiful girl he has ever seen and for the first time in your life ... you'll believe it
