More quotes by John Green

John Green
And, since they are theater people, they are all talking. All of them. Simultaneously. They do not need to be heard they only need to be speaking.
John Green
There are times when you just have to let it all out. All the anger, all the pain.
John Green
The future will erase everything--there's no level of fame or genius that allows you to transcend oblivion. The infinite future makes that kind of mattering impossible.

John Green
So I let her go, too. And I'm sorry.
John Green
Some people have lives some people have music.
John Green

I finally decided that people believed in an afterlife because they couldn't bear not to.
John Green
I pointed at the little kids goading each other to jump from rib cage to shoulder and Gus answered just loud enough for me to hear over the din, 'Last time, I imagined myself as the kid. This time, the skeleton.
John Green
When you say nasty things about people, you should never say the true ones, because you can't really fully and honestly take those back.
John Green
People are such idiots. As if there's something wrong with being in love.
John Green
Without pain, we couldn't know joy.
John Green
The fourth way to get a boy to like you is to be yourself. Now, I am contractually obligated as an adult to give that advice, even though it doesn't work. But yeah, be yourself, even though no one has any idea what it means to be yourself. Like whose self would I otherwise be being?
John Green
