John Green Hope Quote Bot“I must choose to believe, to care, to hold dear. I keep going. I go to therapy. I try a different medication. I meditate, even though I despise meditation. I exercise. I wait. I work to believe, to hold dear, to go on.”
— John Green
“I really just can’t in good faith recommend chronically high levels of anxiety. I recommend almost everything I live with. Art. Telling stories in your head to entertain yourself. Parenting. Having a little speaker in your kitchen that plays Taylor Swift whenever you want. I heartily recommend all these things. But I just can’t get behind anxiety disorders.”
— John Green
“The body is always deciding what the brain will think about, and the brain is all the time deciding what the body will do and feel. Our brains are made of meat, and our bodies experience thoughts.”
— John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed
“I have a simple prayer at the beginning of this year, and every year: May this year justify our hope.”
— John Green
“Despair isn’t very productive. That’s the problem with it. Like a replicating virus, all despair can make is more of itself.”
— John Green, The Anthropocene Reviewed

They had 13 deliveries and admitted 27 patients on the first day.

The pleasure of remembering had been taken from me, because there was no longer anyone to remember with. It felt like losing your co-rememberer meant losing the memory itself, as if the things we’d done were less real and important than they had been hours before.
