John Green Hope Quote Bot“There’s not a lot of room for un-ironic emotion in contemporary culture. I think that irony is an important tool in dealing with the world as we find it.

But along the way maybe we’ve lost some of what I think of as the power of straightforward emotion and earnestness and seriousness.”
— John Green

— John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed
“The world is what it is. But the world is also what you bring to it, and who you share it with.”
— John Green
