Our love is like the wind...I can’t see it, but I sure can feel it. - Landon
Landon: I might kiss you.
Jamie: I might be bad at it.
Landon: That's not possible.
Jamie: Are you trying to seduce me?
Landon: Why? Are you seducible?
Jamie: You have to promise you won't fall in love with me.
Landon: That's not a problem.
Landon: I'm sorry she never got her miracle.
Reverend Sullivan: She did. It was you.
Jamie: Please don't pretend like you know me, ok?
Landon: But I do, I do. We've had all the same classes in the same school since kindergarten. Why you're Jamie Sullivan. You sit at lunch table 7. Which isn't exactly the reject table, but is definitely in self exile territory. You have exactly one sweater. You like to look at your feet when you walk. Oh, oh, and yeah, for fun, you like to tutor on weekends and hang out with the cool kids from "Stars and Planets." Now how does that sound?
Jamie: Fairly predictable, nothing I haven't heard before.
Jamie: OK, so you don't care about classes or graduating, but you like school because you're popular and you'll never be on top again.
Landon: That's thoroughly predictable.
Jamie: Your act only works on an audience.
Jamie: You don't know the first thing about being someone's friend.
Landon: I don't want to just be your friend.
Jamie: You don't know what you want.
Landon: Neither do you. Maybe you're just too scared that someone might actually want to be with you.
Jamie: And why would that scare me?
Landon: Because then you wouldn't be able to hide behind your books, or your frickin' telescope, or your faith. No, no, you know the real reason why you're scared? It's cause you wanna be with me too.
Jamie: How can you see places like this...and have moments like this and not believe?
Landon: You're lucky to be so sure.
Jamie: It's like the wind. I can't...see it, but I feel it.
Landon: Listen, Jamie, I was hoping we could run lines together?
Jamie: Okay, but just not so anybody knows, right?
Landon: Well I just figured we could surprise everyone with how good I get.
Jamie: Like we could be secret friends.
Landon: Exactly, exactly it's like you're reading my mind.
Jamie: Great umm... maybe you could read mine.
[she gives him a cold glare and turns away]
Landon: Jamie, Jamie I can't just be your friend.
Jamie: Landon, look, I thought I saw something in you, something good, but I was very wrong.
Landon: Jamie... I love you.
[long pause]
Landon: Now would be the time to say something.
Jamie: I told you not to fall in love with me.
Jamie saved my life. She taught me everything. About life, hope and the long journey ahead. I'll always miss her. - Landon
The problem isn't finding out where you are gonna go-its figuring out what you are gonna do once you get there that is! - Jamie
Landon: What'd you tell your father?
Jamie: The truth. I just left you out of it.
Ms. Garber: Mr. Carter, are you trying to be bad at this?
Landon: Nah, it just comes naturally.
Mr. Carter: Landon, don't walk away.
Landon: You taught me how.
Landon: Right now, you're straddling the state line.
Jamie: OK...
Landon: You're in two places at once.
Jamie: People can see.
Landon: And that would ruin your reputation how?
Dean: If there is a greater power, why is it he can't get you a new sweater?
Jamie: Because, he's too busy looking for your brain.
Eric: It's all good cause were gonna get club Landon and Club Eric jumping up in here. Oh, what do we got here ?
[Erics turns the CD player on]
Eric: Whoa, okay, okay, so your not really feeling my hip-hop, but what the hell is this?
Landon: Jamie lent it to me.
Eric: Now she's got you listening to her people music?
Landon: Okay... her people?
Eric: Yeah. Her...uh, bible-hugging, crucifix-wearing, honk-if-you-love-Jesus-people.
Landon: She's not like that.
Eric: Talk to me man.
Landon: About what?
Eric: About you, about Jamie.
Landon: What's there to talk about? She's the best person I've ever known.
Eric: [reading lines passionately for Landon] Nothing's coincidence, baby. You know you're the only one who can make me sing.
[jokingly pretending to hump Mrs. Garber]
Eric: Oh yeah Miss Garber, oh, you gonna put Eric in all your plays!
[as Miss Garber]
Eric: Oh Eric, I'm gonna put you in all my plays!

Death is the surest calculation that can be made. - Ludwig Büchner (quoted in the movie, A Walk To Remember)
Maybe God has a bigger plan for me than I had for myself. Like this journey never ends. Like you were sent to me because I'm sick. To help me through all this. You're my angel. - Jamie (to Landon)
You, uh, feelin', Christian? - Landon
Jamie has faith in me. She makes me want to be different, better. - Landon
Clay Gephardt: You know what? I actually thought I wanted to be your friend. And now I have no idea why. No idea.

Landon: Like hell.
Clay Gephardt: Good.
Jamie: Without suffering there would be no compassion.
Landon: Yeah, well tell that to those who suffer.
Jamie: I'm sick.
Landon: I'll take you home. You'll be be...
Jamie: No. Landon! I'm sick. I have Leukemia.
Landon: No. You're 18. You - you're perfect.
Jamie: No. I found out two years ago and I've stopped responding to treatments.
Landon: So why didn't you tell me?
Jamie: The doctor said I should go on and live life normally as best I could. I - I didn't want anybody to be weird around me.
Landon: Including me?
Jamie: Especially you!
[Landon gets upset]
Jamie: Ya know, I was getting along with everything fine. I accepted it, and then you happened! I do not need a reason to be angry with God.
Landon: Are you scared?
Jamie: To death...
[Landon looks upset]
Jamie: Lighten up.
Landon: It's not funny.
Jamie: I'm scared of not being with you.
Landon: Oh baby, that will never happen... I'll be here.
Landon: Jamie, I'm trying here, OK? Maybe...maybe I miss spending time with you. Maybe you inspire me.
Jamie: Sounds like bull.
Landon: Which part?
Jamie: All of it.
Landon: Well it's not!
Jamie: Prove it.
Landon: Can you find this star, right here?
