My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

The great tragedy of life is not that men perish but that they cease to love.

You only need one man to love you. But him to love you free like a wildfire crazy like the moon always like tomorrow sudden like an inhale and overcoming like the tides. Only one man and all of this.

Its bullshit to think of friendship and romance as being different. Theyre not. Theyre just variations of the same love. Variations of the same desire to be close.

You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.

Ill fight it. Ill fight it for you. Dont you worry about me Hazel Grace. Im okay. Ill find a way to hang around and annoy you for a long time.

In desperate love we always invent the characters of our partners demanding they be what we need of them and then feeling devastated when they refuse to perform the role we created in the first place.

If a thing loves it is infinite.

Anxiety is loves greatest killer. It makes others feel as you might when a drowning man holds on to you. You want to save him but you know he will strangle you with his panic.

In the moment when I truly understand my enemy understand him well enough to defeat him then in that very moment I also love him. I think its impossible to really understand somebody what they want what they believe and not love them the way they love themselves. And then in that very moment when I love them.... I destroy them.
