The Notebook

My dearest Allie,

I couldn't sleep last night because I know that it's over between us.

I was not bitter any more, because I know that what we had was real. And if in some distant place in the future, we see each other in our new lives. I'll smile at you with joy, and remember how we spent a summer beneath the trees, learning from each other and growing in love.

The best love is the kind that awakens the soul, and makes us reach for more, and plants a fire in our hearts, and brings peace to our minds. And that's what you've given me. That's what I'd hoped to give you forever.

I love you. I will be seeing you.

Noah

The Notebook quotes

  • Frank: [Allie painted Noah a picture] Now that's a damn painting that is.

  • Young Noah: [raising fists in air] Dad! God... I stammered!

    Frank: Stammered, stuttered... what's the difference. You couldn't understand a damn thing he said.

    [Allie laughing]

    Frank: Anyway, I got him to read some poetry aloud and pretty soon his stuttering went away.

    Young Allie: Well, that's a good idea that poetry.
