John Green Quotes

That's What I Was Thinking About Before You Came. I Was Thinking About Your Mattering Business. I Feel Like, Like, How You Matter Is Defined By The Things That Matter To You. You Matter As Much As The Things That Matter To You Do. And I Got So Backwards, Trying To Make Myself Matter To Him. All This Time, There Were Real Things To Care About: Real, Good People Who Care About Me, And This Place. It's So Easy To Get Stuck. You Just Get Caught In Being Something, Being Special Or Cool Or Whatever, To The Point Where You Don't Even Know Why You Need It; You Just Think You Do."
"You Don't Even Know Why You Need To Be World-famous; You Just Think You Do.
