More quotes by John Green
I choose the labyrinth.
John Green
I opened the door. He looked down at my shirt and smiled. Funny, he said. Don't call my boobs funny, I answered.
John Green
It looked like an old painting, but real - everything achingly idyllic in the morning light - and I thought about how wonderfully strange it would be to live in a place where almost everything had been built by the dead.
John Green
I spy with my little eye a great story.
John Green
All hurt is brain hurt.
John Green
The truth is that in our lives we are all going to encounter questions that should be answered, that deserve to be answered, and yet prove unanswerable.
John Green
And yet still I worried. I like being a person. I wanted to keep at it. Worry is yet another side effect of dying.
John Green
It's not fair, I said. It's just so goddamned unfair. The world, he said, is not a wishgranting factory.
John Green

I told myself – as I’ve told myself before – that the body shuts down when the pain gets too bad, that consciousness is temporary, that this will pass. But just like always, I didn’t slip away. I was left on the shore with the waves washing over me, unable to drown.
John Green
I realized it in waves and we held on to each other crying and I thought, God we must look so lame, but it doesn't matter much when you have just now realized, all the time later, that you are still alive.
John Green
We acknowledge that being the person God made you cannot separate you from God's love.
John Green
the problem is not suffering itself or oblivion itself but the depraved meaninglessness of these things, the absolutely inhuman nihilism of suffering.
John Green
I figured something out. The future is unpredictable.
John Green
Colin had always preferred baths one of his general policies in life was never to do anything standing up that could just as easily be done lying down
John Green
I'm a big believer in pairing classics with contemporary literature, so students have the opportunity to see that literature is not a cold, dead thing that happened once but instead a vibrant mode of storytelling that's been with us a long time - and will be with us, I hope, for a long time to come.
John Green
If you don’t know about Tumblr then you are not supposed to know about Tumblr. It’s like fight club.
John Green
I do my precalc homework, and then when I'm done I actually sit with the textbook for like three hours and try to understand what I just did. That's the kind of weekend it is--the kind where you have so much time you go past the answers and start looking into the ideas.
John Green
That's why people grow weary of listening to Dumpees obsess over their troubles: getting dumped is predictable, repetitive, and boring. They want to stay friends they feel smothered it's always them and it's never you and afterward, you're devastated and their relieved it's over for them and just starting for you.
John Green
If I could just stay alive for a week, I’d know the unwritten secrets of Anna’s mom and the Dutch Tulip Guy.
