John Green
You know what ambrosia tastes like? It tastes like all the things you can't eat on Weight Watchers. Cheeseburgers, sugar cookies, regular freaking ice cream instead of, like, ice cream that's made out of air and human hope.
John Green

John Green
I just want the pleasure of noticing these things at a safe distance.
John Green
By the power of the superglue beer sword, I designate you my driver!
John Green
We have to live with ambiguity. We have to give ourselves over to it. The question is: How? How are we going to live in a universe where important questions will always go unanswered?
John Green
I'm a grenade, I just want to stay away from people and read books, and think.
John Green
