More quotes by John Green
Even then, it hurt. The pain was always there, pulling me inside of myself, demanding to be felt. It always felt like I was waking up from the pain when something in the world outside of me suddenly required my comment or attention.
John Green
My head was level with hers as we stared at each other from opposite sides of the glass. I don't remember how it ended - if I went to bed or she did. In my memory, it doesn't end. We just stay there, looking at each other, forever.
John Green
Read a lot. Read broadly... Tell stories to your friends, and pay attention to when they get bored... Write a lot.
John Green
If by that you mean that I dislike celebrity magazines, prefer food to anorexia, refuse to watch TV shows about models, and hate the color pink, then yes. I am proud to be not really a girl.
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
You could hold me and I could hold you. And it would be so peaceful. Completely peaceful. Like the feeling of sleep, but awake in it together.
John Green
At the end, we brought her to New York, where I was living, for a series of experimental tortures that increased the misery of her days without increasing the number of them.
John Green
I needed, I decided, to really know her, because I needed more to remember. Before I could begin the shameful process of forgetting the how and the why of her living and dying, I needed to learn it: How. Why. When. Where. What.
John Green
What matters to you defines your mattering.
John Green
I couldn't hear a thing in the world but you. And it was so cold then, and so silent, and I loved you so much. Now it's hot and dead quiet again, and I love you still.
John Green
I don't like reindeer. They seem like regular deer, only more dangerous.
John Green
I came here looking for a Great Perhaps, for real friends and a more-than-minor life.
John Green
I go to seek a Great Perhaps.
John Green
But that part of us greater than the sum of our parts cannot begin and cannot end, and so it cannot fail
John Green
How do you just stop being terrified of getting left behind and ending up by yourself forever and not meaning anything to the world?
John Green
Ya gotta live somewhere, but also you GET to live somewhere.
John Green
The five of us walking confidently in a row, I'd never felt cooler. The Great Perhaps was upon us, and we were invincible. The plan may have had faults, but we did not.
John Green
Nostalgia is inevitably a yearning for a past that never existed and when I'm writing, there are no bees to sting me out of my sentimentality. For me at least, fiction is the only way I can even begin to twist my lying memories into something true.
John Green
I'm not interested in writing for adults. I like them as people! I don't like the way they publish books in that world. Nothing ever gets a chance.
John Green
The past feels distant, even when it's near. The future feels assured, even when it isn't.
John Green
