Possibly the most influential character of the hit series, One Tree Hill, Brooke Davis provided some knockout quotes from her nine season run. We watched her transform from a disoriented party girl in high school to the CEO of her very own fashion line. Along the way, she also became one of the show’s most lovable and relatable characters who supplied us with more than a few inspiring quotes to live by.
1. “People are gonna label you. It’s how you overcome those labels, that’s what matters.”
2. “I stopped letting boys define me and I started believing in myself.”

4. “If you had a friend that you knew you’d never see again, what would you say? If you could do one last thing for someone you love, what would it be? Say it. Do it. Don’t wait. Nothing lasts forever.”
5. “People that are meant to be together always find their way in the end.”
