More quotes by John Green
And then the line was quite but not dead. I almost felt like he was there in my room with me, but in a way it was better, like I was not in my room and he was not in his, but instead we were together in some invisible and tenuous third space that could only be visited on the phone.
John Green
As I recall, you promised to CALL when you finished the book, not text.
John Green
What's that? The laundry basket? No, next to it. I don't see anything next to it. It's my last shred of dignity. It's very small.
John Green
But I could always tell in her eyes if she got really pissed at me, and her eyes were still pretty smiley
John Green
Being a person, I had come to realize, is a communal activity. Dogs know how to be dogs. But people do not know how to be people unless and until they learn from other people.
John Green
I was surprised. I'd always associated belief in heaven with, frankly, a kind of intellectual disengagement. But Gus wasn't dumb.

Caroline was always moody and miserable, but I liked it. I liked feeling as if she had chosen me as the only person in the world not to hate, and so we spent all this time together just ragging on everyone, you know?

Teenagers have more intense reading experiences because they've had fewer of them. It's like the first time you fall in love. You have a connection to that first person you fell in love with because it was so intense and unprecedented.
John Green
We're going to get gored to death by a feral fugging hog and your best strategy is to pretend it's a grizzly bear?
John Green
I'm starting to realize that people lack good mirrors. It's so hard for anyone to show us how we look, & so hard for us to show anyone how we feel.
John Green
I knew that I would know more dead people. The bodies pile up. Could there be a space in my memory for each of them, or would I forget a little of Alaska every day for the rest of my life?
John Green
People are such idiots. As if there's something wrong with being in love.
John Green
Colin Singleton’s distance from his glasses made him realize the problem: myopia. He was nearsighted. The future lay before him, inevitable but invisible.
John Green
It was an indulgence, learning last words. Other people had chocolate I had dying declarations.
John Green
Augustus Waters, I said, looking up at him, thinking that you cannot kiss anyone in the Anne Frank House, and then thinking that Anne Frank, after all, kissed someone in the Anne Frank House, and that she would probably like nothing more than for her home to have become a place where the young and irreparably broken sink into love.
John Green
You see how fake it all is. It's not even hard enough to be made out of plastic. It's a paper town.
John Green
Nothing really ever happens like you imagine it will.
John Green
Reading a good book helps us to feel un-alone.
John Green
The missing piece in his stomach hurt so much-and eventually he stopped thinking about the Theorem and wondered only how something that isn't there can hurt you.
John Green
How will I ever get out of this labyrinth! to a margin note written in her loop-heavy cursive: Straight & Fast.
