Television characters tend to take on a life of their own and through the writer, often have some pretty profound things to say. While the quotes are attributed to the show's characters, Lucas and Nathan Scott, Haley Scott, Brooke Davis, Payton Saywer et al... one presumes the quote should be credited to the writer(s) of the show. In many cases, popular television shows have teams of writers or a rotation of writers that receive credit for writing various episodes so maybe it's too difficult to figure out who exactly wrote a certain in order to give credit.
I have determined that Mark Schwahn has been credited as "the writer" so please consider that as you read through some One Tree Hill quotes.
I found these quotes in various places around the net but I've still got to find the good ones.

Nathan Scott
So you want me to tell you something about
myself? I don't have anything to say. Even if I did you'd be wrong to
believe me. Trust is a lie. Nobody ever knows any more.
When I fell to the floor tonight, I was so scared, I was so terrified.
Then I saw you, and I promised myself that if I could just get up, I'd
walk over to you... I'd tell you how much I need you and how much I
want you... and how nothing else matters.
You know for most of my life I would have gone through this alone, but
then I met you. And I finally found someone I could depend on like I've
got this. So I guess I called you 'cause I wanted to know if that was
still there.
You realize I wouldn't be in this situation if it wasn't for you. If
you'd stayed in your place at the river court I never would have met
Haley. You ruined my life, man. You'd better watch your back.
Haley ScottYou should've thought of that last night. You know I keep... I keep putting
myself out there and you keep blowing it and it's probably a good thing
because at this point there is nothing that you can say or do that's
gonna surprise me!
Be careful with his heart. It's more fragile than you think.
Brooke Davis
The
"Hey, let's hook up after the game" nod. You wanna know what I think? I
think Nathan likes tutor girl, tutor girl likes Lucas, and I know I
like Lucas, and I have no idea who the hell you like any more so this
has been turned into one big love... rectangle plus one... whatever
that is!
Okay, guy in need of a clue. Here's one. Women send
signals. That was a brush off. Before you dip into your shallow pool of
wit let me paint us a picture and save us
both the trouble. Here's your evening. You are going to slink back
off to your buddies, laugh this off, get wasted, go home, and make nice
with yourself. But don't be thinking of me, because even your fantasy
of me, isn't interested in you.
Lucas was my gangrene-infected, amputated limb.
Here's my philosophy on dating. It's important to have somebody that
can make you laugh, somebody you can trust, somebody that, y'know,
turns you on... And it's really, really important that these three
people don't know each other.
Deborah ScottShe's young enough to be your daughter, and in this town, she might just be.
Dan ScottI
should apologize. But I won't.Somewhere along the line, I started
hurting the people I care most about, and I can't figure out how to
stop.
Lucas Scott
As happens sometimes a moment
settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound
stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. And
then the moment was gone.
Ida Scott Taylor once wrote: Do not
look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; and do not be
troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the
present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering.
