More quotes by John Green
Books—they weren't ladders out of the abyss, but they were companions.
John Green

John Green

John Green
I want to see you again tonight. But I'm willing to wait all night and much of tomorrow.
John Green
I always felt like you had to be important to have enemies.
John Green
Books belong to their readers.
John Green
But it is the nature of stars to cross, and never was Shakespeare more wrong than when he has Cassius note, ‘The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars / But in ourselves.
John Green
She left me enough to rediscover the Great Perhaps.
John Green
Colder by the hour, more dead with every breath.
John Green
I didn't know what to say to her - I was caught in a love triangle with one dead side.
John Green
I think when you're 16, if you have good parents, they generally just fade in the background. I had great parents, and because they were great, I thought very little about them in high school.
John Green
I love you' really is the gateway drug of breaking up.
John Green
