More quotes by John Green

John Green
Waffles аrе јust awesome bread.
John Green
That feeling of finishedness does not come all at once, and it is not easily won, but I think once you get there it is hard to go back.
John Green
Worry is yet another side effect of dying.
John Green
We're invisible. I've never been here with someone else. It's different being invisible with someone.
John Green
Sometimes people don't understand the promises they're making when they make them.
John Green
Because it's kind of great, being an idea that everybody likes. But I could never be the idea to myself, not all the way.
John Green
Do you ever wonder whether people would like you more or less if they could see inside you? But I always wonder about that. If people could see me the way I see myself—if they could live in my memories—would anyone, anyone, love me?
John Green
You completely unscatter me, and I appreciate that too much.
