I have spent my life falling. Not the kind that Tiny's talking about. He's talking about love. I'm talking about life. In my kind of falling, there's no landing. There's only hitting the ground. Hard. Dead, or wanting to be dead. So the whole time you're falling, it's the worst feeling in the world. Because you feel you have no control over it. Because you know how it ends.
John GreenThe universe is biased toward consciousness because the universe wants to be noticed. It's a way into existential hope that doesn't have too much clichรฉ wrapped around it.
John GreenIf he is anything other than a total gentleman, Iโm going to gouge his eyes out.โ โSo youโre into it.โ โWithholding judgment! When can I see you?โ โCertainly not until you finish An Imperial Affliction.โ I enjoyed being coy. โThen Iโd better hang up and start reading.โ โYouโd better,โ I said, and the line clicked dead without another word. Flirting was new to me, but I liked it.
