LOOKING FOR ALASKA by John Green
"Those awful things are survivable because we are as indestructible as we believe ourselves to be."
~
"At some point, you just pull off the band-aid, and it hurts, but then it's over and you're relieved."
~
"We need never be hopeless because we can never be irreparably broken."
~
"If only we could see the endless string of consequences that result from our smallest actions. But we can't know better until knowing better is useless."
~
"Before I got here, I thought for a long time that the way out of the labyrinth was to pretend that it did not exist, to build a small, self-sufficient world in the back corner of the endless maze and to pretend that I was not lost, but home."
~
"There is a part of her greater than the sum of her knowable parts. And that part has to go somewhere, because it cannot be destroyed."
~
"It's very beautiful over there."-Thomas Eddiosn
~
"I go to seek a Great Perhaps." ― François Rabelais
~
"We all use the future to escape the present."
~
"So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane."
~
"Suffering is universal. it's the one thing Buddhists, Christians, and Muslims are all worried about."
~
"She loved mysteries so much, that she became one."
~
"This one's for Alaska Young!"
