“I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things.”
“Some people don't understand the promises they're making when they make them," I said.
"Right, of course. But you keep the promise anyway. That's what love is. Love is keeping the promise anyway.”
“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.”
“Grief does not change you, Hazel. It reveals you.”
“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.”
“You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world...but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices.”
“You realize that trying to keep your distance from me will not lessen my affection for you. All efforts to save me from you will fail.”
