More quotes by John Green

John Green

John Green
You used, he said, and then took a sharp breath, to call me Augustus.
John Green
When I think about [characters], I like to think of them in their relationships to each other. In the same way, I think that's how humans are ultimately defined. We are our relationships to one another. And a lot of what's interesting about us happens in the context of other people.
John Green
Nothing has ever looked like that ever in all of human history.
John Green
Worry is yet another side effect of dying.
John Green
You are fairly smart, I said after a while. You are fairly good at compliments, he answered.
John Green
Not to ask the obvious question, but why Alaska?
John Green
I have to tell you man, that my stalker meter is kind of registering in the red zone right now.
John Green
Talking to a drunk person was like talking to an extremely happy, severely brain-damaged three-year-old.
John Green
And yes, again, that was it exactly. A retyper and not a writer. A prodigy and not a genius.
