John Green
Stop thinking about the landing, because it's all about falling.
John Green
Oh, Wikipedia, with your tension between those who would share knowledge and those who would destroy it.
John Green
Random questions are the least random of all questions.
John Green
Hi, I’m at the Speedway at Eighty-sixth and Ditch, and I need an ambulance. The great love of my life has a malfunctioning G-tube.
John Green
That was the worst part about having cancer, sometimes: The physical evidence of disease separates you from other people.
