John Green
Margo's beauty was a kind of sealed vessel of perfection--uncracked and uncrackable.
John Green
The world may be broken, but hope is not crazy.
John Green
It looked like an old painting, but real - everything achingly idyllic in the morning light - and I thought about how wonderfully strange it would be to live in a place where almost everything had been built by the dead.
John Green
I mean, it’s stupid to miss someone you didn’t even get along with. But I don’t know, it was nice, you know, having someone you could always fight with.

I can't imagine us saying these things to each other out loud. But even if I can't imagine hearing these words, I can imagine living them. I don't even picture it. Instead I'm in it.

John Green
The last time I was this scared, I peed myself. The last time I was this scared, Radar says, I actually had to face a Dark Lord in order to make the world safe for wizards.
John Green

John Green
Imagining the future is a kind of nostalgia. (...) You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth, thinking about how you'll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.
John Green
Your responsibility is not to the people you're making the gift for, but the gift itself.
John Green
She was not an adventure, she was not a fine and precious thing. She was a girl.
John Green
I kind of conned you into believing you were falling in love with a healthy person.
John Green
In the first century CE, Roman authorities punished St. Apollonia by crushing her teeth one by one with pliers. Colin often thought about this in relationship to the monotony of dumping: we have thirty-two teeth. After a while, having each tooth individually destroyed probably gets repetitive, even dull. But it never stops hurting.
John Green
I just want you to be happy. If that’s with me or with someone else or with nobody. I just want you to be happy.
John Green
