11 Lucas Scott Quotes That Tell The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly Truth About Life
Fanpop

For everyone who's seen "One Tree Hill," which is almost every teenage girl, we all know that soft-hearted jock Lucas Scott definitely has his way with words. Here are some of my favorite Lucas Scott quotes that tell the good, the bad, and the ugly truth about life.

1. “Because it´s only when you're tested that you truly discover who you are. And it´s only when you're tested that you discover who you can be. The person that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith and belief, and beyond the heartache and fear of what life has.”

Lucas Scott is known for encouraging people to be exactly who they are; the number of times he's reminded Brooke and Peyton that they are absolutely amazing is too many to count. So listen to Lucas Scott, the person you want to be does exist somewhere behind the mess that is life.

2. “But once in a while, people push on to something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. Or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quite persistence of a dream.”

Everyone's gone through things in life, things that often cause us to put up our guard. But after experiencing life guarded and alone, there comes a time when you dig the bravery and courage deep out of your bones and decide that maybe letting someone in isn't such a bad idea after all.

3. “Have you ever wondered what marks our time here? If one life can really make an impact on the world… or if the choices we make matter? I believe they do. And I believe that one man can change many lives. For better… or worse.”

We all know that Keith Scott changed Lucas's life forever, and because of this, it can sometimes be the good and the bad truth about life. Sometimes, people change your life for the better, and some definitely change it for the worse.

4. “Truth is still absolute. Believe that. Even when that truth is hard and cold, and more painful than you’ve ever imagined. And even when truth is more cruel than any lie.”

This definitely tells the ugly truth about life. Sometimes, the truth can be good and bad, but the truth is the truth, and it's one of the most important aspects of life.

5. “Happiness comes in many forms-in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else’s dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It’s okay to let yourself be happy, because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be.”

This is a perfect life description quote. People come and go, things come and go, dreams come and go, so hold onto it while it's there, because you never know when it could be taken away from you.

6. “Most of our lives are a series of images; they pass us by like towns on a highway. But sometimes, a moment stuns us as it happens, and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever."

This is a perfect quote that sums up a perfect moment in your life. Perfect moments are the ones you remember in a blur of days, and when you remember those, you know that you're going to remember them for the rest of your life.

7. “There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a road map. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course, when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back."

I think that this quote sums up every single one of our lives. We've all been there, at a crossroad, confused, afraid. It's hard when we don't know that to do with our lives, but sometimes, all you need to do is find that bravery and go with your gut.

8. “Do not let your fire go out, sparked by irreplaceable spark. And the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish. And lonely frustration for the life you deserved but never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. And it is yours.”

This is a quote anyone and everyone can relate to. We all get frustrated with life and sometimes push our dreams under the rug, but as Lucas Scott said, it's all possible and it's yours to have.

9. “Sometimes, it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who’s struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. That feeling is a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay, because we all need a little help sometimes, someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won’t always be this way. That someone is out there, and that someone will find you."

We all feel alone sometimes, but Lucas Scott's wise words tells us what we've always known; that were not alone and that someone is out there just waiting to find you.

10. "But if you're always looking for reasons not to be with somebody, and you always find 'em, then I guess at some point maybe you should let go and give your heart what it deserves."

It's such a common story; you make up all the reasons in the world not to be with somebody because you think that you shouldn't be or because of certain circumstances, but sometimes it's important to put yourself first and do whats right for you.

11. "There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment you must choose your direction. Will you fight to stay on the path while others tell you who you are, or will you label yourself? Will you be honored by your choice, or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or to simply give up."

It's so important in this wild, crazy world of ours to hold onto who we are and not let the world change us. And, of course, Lucas Scott is the one to tell us all exactly what we need to hear.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
