John Green &gt; quotes <br /> <br /> <br /> See if your friends have read any of John Green&#039;s books. <br /> Sign up &raquo; <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;Saying &#039;I notice you&#039;re a nerd&#039; is like saying, &#039;Hey, I notice that you&#039;d rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you&#039;d rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?&#039; In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even &#039;lame&#039; is kind of lame. Saying &#039;You&#039;re lame&#039; is like saying &#039;You walk with a limp.&#039; Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he&#039;s done all right for himself.&quot; <br /> &mdash; John Green


I like it when you smile;
when you're happy it shows.
When you laugh you get a crinkle in your nose
and it's cute.

I like how when we talk
we can never get bored.
Even in the silence it could never
be awkward.

I like the look in your eyes
and the part in your hair
and the way you speak like nobody else is there
but us.
