John Green
Anyway, that was the last good day I had with Gus until the Last Good Day.
John Green

John Green
Crying adds something: crying is you, plus tears. But the feeling Colin had was some horrible opposite of crying. It was you, minus something. He kept thinking about one word - forever - and felt the burning ache just beneath his rib cage.
John Green
We are now as I wished we could be then.
John Green
