Even if it’s a dumb story, telling it changes people just the slightest little bit, just as living the story changes me. An infinitesimal change.

John Green
I think that it's a universal urge to have our pain not be felt alone and to have our joys not be felt alone.
John Green
Everybody was so kind. Strong, too. In the darkest days, the Lord puts the best people into your life. Quick, give me a throw pillow and some thread because that needs to be an Encouragement.
John Green
Like all sick children,' he answered dispassionately, 'you say you don't want pity, but your very existence depends upon it.

John Green
In the end the listening exposes you even more than it exposes the people you're trying to listen to.
John Green

John Green
Her hair is ridiculous, I said. I know. That was the only thing I said about her that was true. 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, you know? I mean, there are highlights. And there are streaks. And then there are skunk stripes.
John Green
