John  Green
“Mere despair never tells the whole human story, as much as despair would like to insist otherwise. Hopelessness has the insidious talent of explaining everything: the reason X or Y sucks is that everything sucks, the reason you’re miserable is because misery is the correct response to the world as we find it, and so on. I am prone to despair, and so I know its powerful voice; it just doesn’t happen to be true. Here’s the truth as I see it: Vicious cycles are common. Injustice and unfairness permeate every aspect of human life. But virtuous cycles are also possible.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“And so we must fight not just for reform within the system but also for better systems that understand human health not primarily as a market”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“There’s even emerging evidence that one’s microbiome may have a relationship with thought itself through the gut-brain information axis, meaning that at least some of my thoughts may belong not to me, but to the microorganisms in my digestive tract.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

John  Green
“The beauty of women is greatly owing to their delicacy, or weakness.” One romantic word to describe the beauty standard—delicacy—followed by a stigmatizing one—weakness.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

John  Green
“In a world where everyone can eat, and access healthcare, and be treated humanely, tuberculosis has no chance. Ultimately, we are the cause.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection
