Nicholas Sparks quotes:

Nicholas Sparks Nicholas Sparks > Quotes

“I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough..”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it”
― Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember

“I finally understood what true love meant…love meant that you care for another person’s happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be.”
― Nicholas Sparks, Dear John

“So it’s not gonna be easy. It’s going to be really hard; we’re gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me… everyday.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“Just when you think it can’t get any worse, it can. And just when you think it can’t get any better, it can.”
― Nicholas Sparks, At First Sight

“You’re going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by. It’s actions, not words, that matter.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Rescue

“You can’t live your life for other people. You’ve got to do what’s right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“Sometimes you have to be apart from people you love, but that doesn’t make you love them any less. Sometimes you love them more.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Last Song

“We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has only happened once, and that’s why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I’ll never forget a single moment of it.”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Loves is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It dose not take offense and is not resentful. Love take no pleasure in others people’s sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.”
― Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember

Poem analysis:

“To the tune of beauty Yu” was written after Li Yu was dethroned and imprisoned. The full poem expressed the nostalgia of his past life as the emperor, and his uncontrolled sorrow of reminiscing the past.

Spring flowers and the autumn moon are among the most beautiful scenes we see in nature. When we greet a new season, we often recall those best memories which are associated with the past meaningful and beautiful moments in certain unforgettable scenery. As a former emperor, Li Yu’s sublime years were related to the golden palace period. However, when he was writing this poem, the past, prosperous and grand chapter, was torn from his unbearable life book. Under the full moon illuminating light, when the gentle eastern wind blew to the tower where he was caged in, Li Yu’s mind roamed to his old kingdom. Those carved railing and jade layered stairs still remained; however, the familiar faces were gone without a trace. He could not help but wished those beautiful scenes in nature could cease existing, so that he could get away from those beautiful yet cruel reminders of his past and the sorrow they brought. As for the mourning and misery, they were so tormenting and rushing like the whole Yang Tze River fiercely rolling out to the East Sea, so unbearable, so heart wrenching, and so very bitter. .. It was said that this arty minded poetic emperor died shortly after he wrote this poem.

Translated by Shu

Poet background information:
Li Houzhu ( 李後主 Li Hou4 zhu3; literally “The Latter Lord Li”) (937–978), also known as Houzhu of Southern Tang (南唐後主, literally “the latter lord of Southern Tang”), personal name Li3 Yu4 (李煜), né Li Cong2 jia1 (李從嘉), courtesy name Chong2 guang1 (重光), posthumously known as Prince of Wu (吳王), was the last ruler of the Southern Tang Kingdom from 961 to 975 during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period. He was also a well-known poet, even to the extent of having been called the “first true master” of the ci form. As a poet, he is generally known by his family name and his given personal name, that is as “Li Yu.”

Li Houzhu devoted much of his time to pleasure-making and literature, and this content is reflected in his early poems. Li’s ci poems developed a sadder style after the death of his wife, in 964. However, his best-known, saddest poems were written during the years after the Song ended his reign in 975. He was assigned the title of the Marquess of Wei Ming (違命侯; literally, the Marquess of Disobeyed Edicts), a token title only: in reality, he was a caged prisoner. Li’s works of this period mainly are about his regret for the lost kingdom and the pleasures he indulged that had brought him to this miserable stage of life.

He broadened the ci content scope from love to history and philosophy, particularly in his later works. He also introduced the two stanza form, and made great use of contrasts between longer lines of nine characters and shorter ones of three and five. Only 45 of his ci poems survive, thirty of which have been verified to be his authentic works.

He was poisoned by the Song emperor Taizong in 978, after he had written this poem and the other one, which lamented the destruction of his empire. After his death, he was posthumously created the Prince of Wu (吳王).
