John Green Quotes

"It hurt because it mattered""It is so hard to leave until you leave and then it is the easiest goddamned thing in the world""We need never be hopeless because we can never be irreparably broken""You can't really know somebody and love them at the same time""You are helpful, and you are loved, and you are forgiven, and you are not just an animal wandering alone""The town was paper but the memories were not""It always hurts more to have and lose than to not have in the first place""It’s a metaphor see: You put the killing thing right between your teeth but you don’t give it the power to do its killing""I fell in love like you would fall asleep: slowly and then all at once""You are so busy being you that you have no idea how utterly unprecedented you are""Books are the ultimate Dumpees put them down and they’ll wait for you forever pay attention to them and they always love you back""Some people have lives some people have music""I’m in love with you and I’m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things""My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations""True love will triumph in the end which may or may not be true""You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world, but you do have some say in who hurts you""I am on a roller coaster that only goes up, my friend""Grief does not change you, Hazel. It reveals you""That's the thing about pain, it demands to be felt""The marks humans leave are too often scars"
