I just want you to be happy. If that’s with me or with someone else or with nobody. I just want you to be happy.
John Green
We all romanticize the people we adore.
John Green
I've lived here for eighteen years and I have never once in my life come across anyone who cares about anything that matters.
John Green
The act of leaning in to kiss someone, or asking them, is fraught with the possibility of rejection, so the person least likely to get rejected should do the leaning in or the asking.
John Green
I have to tell you man, that my stalker meter is kind of registering in the red zone right now.
John Green
He'd fought hard, Lida told me, as if there was another way to fight.

And I vaguely remember her smiling at me from the door way the glittering ambiguity of a girls smile, which seems to promise an answer to the question, but never gives it. The question, the one we’ve all been asking since girls stopped being gross, the question that is to simple to be uncomplicated: Does she like me or does she LIKE me?
John Green
Beware of that monster called 'self-loathing'.
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
I feel like my life is so scattered right now. Like it's all the small pieces of paper and someone's turned on the fan. But, talking to you makes me feel like the fan's been turned off for a little bit. Like things could actually make sense. You completely unscatter me, and I appreciate that so much.
John Green
Dear Jane, Just so you know: e. e. cummings cheated on both of his wives. With prostitutes. Yours, Will Grayson
John Green
but even if we survive the collapse of our sun, we will not survive forever.
John Green
Margo always loved mysteries. And in everything that came afterward, I could never stop thinking that maybe she loved mysteries so much that she became one.
John Green
I believe in that line from An Imperial Affliction. 'The risen sun too bright in her losing eyes.' That's God, I think, the rising sun, and the light is too bright and her eyes are losing but they aren't lost.
John Green
All the characters are made out of words. With reading, I understand that the people aren't real but the fact that they are made out of language and are made out of words is extremely powerful to me. It becomes transformative for me. Different people have different ways of trying to make stories using language.
John Green
We all matter - maybe less then a lot but always more than none.
John Green
Sometimes people don't understand the promises they're making when they make them.
John Green
maybe she'd been scared of being paralyzed by fear again.
John Green
People, I thought, wanted security. They couldn't bear the idea of death being a big black nothing, couldn't bear the thought of their loved ones not existing, and couldn't even imagine themselves not existing. I finally decided that people believed in an afterlife because they couldn't bear not to.
