Among the many reasons why I love One Tree Hill, Brooke Davis is the first. She is the perfect combination of sassy and sweet, she stands up for what she believes in, and she never forgets who she is or where she came from. B. Davis knows the right thing to say. Take these quotes with you wherever you go in life:
1. "At the end of the day, you are who you are, and it's probably who you've always been."
Throughout life, people will disappoint you and turn out to be who you least expected them to be. You can't change people, you can only work on yourself. Always try to better yourself, but never apologize for being yourself.
2. "I am one in a million."
Brooke and confidence go hand in hand. That's right. Sometimes being overconfident is okay. I mean, look where it got B. Davis.
3. "You know, in New York, I had everything I thought I wanted--money, celebrity, success--but you know what I didn't have? Sunrise with my best friend."
Brooke Davis taught us that in the end, having everything you ever wanted means nothing if the ones you love aren't there beside you.
4. "I used to miss you so much, but it never seemed like you missed me. I guess, because of that, I stopped missing you."
Although Brooke Davis didn't take sh*t from anyone, she constantly reminds you that it is necessary to express how you feel. Forgiveness is important, but it's okay to stop forgiving the same people over and over again. At a certain point, you're only hurting yourself. Moving on is a stepping stone in life.
5. "People who are meant to be together always find a way to each other."
B. Davis taught us to remember that there is a plan. As strange as it all may seem at the moment, it will work out.
6. "We all can use a little hope sometimes, you know. That feeling that everything's going to be okay."
She is the perfect example that everyone has their ups and downs. Everyone needs a little reassurance once in a while, and that's okay.
7. "You think you know me, but you don't. And that means you don't know what I can do."
Brooke went from party girl to Student Council President to creating her own fashion line. Follow her lead. Want something? Go get it.
8. "Life kicks you around sometimes. It scares you and it beats you up, but there's a day when you realize that you're not just a survivor, you're a warrior."
One of my personal favorite characteristics about Brooke is her ability to give advice. Take it from her, you're stronger than you know.
9. "I am not that girl anymore."
Brooke Davis grows as an individual throughout the seasons of One Tree Hill.It's a reminder that your past does not dictate your future.
10. "Clothes over bros."
I don't even think I need to go into detail about that one, ladies.
