“It’s a weird phrase in English, in love, like it’s a sea you drown in or a town you live in. You don’t get to be in anything else—in friendship or in anger or in hope. All you can be in is love.”
― John Green, Turtles All the Way Down

“You remember your first love because they show you, prove to you, that you can love and be loved, that nothing in this world is deserved except for love, that love is both how you become a person and why.”
― John Green, Turtles All the Way Down

“On impulse he might die for her, but living for her would be quite different. He has no talent for monotony.”
― Margaret Atwood, The Blind Assassin

“To be alive is to be missing.”
― John Green, Turtles All the Way Down
