Favorite Quotes and Parts of "The Fault In Our Stars" By John Green

Augustus Waters turned to me. "Literally," he said.

"Literally?" I asked.

"We are literally in the heart of Jesus," he said. "I mean I thought we were in a church basement, but we are literally in the heart of Jesus."

"Someone should tell Jesus," I said. "I mean, it's gotta be dangerous, storing children with cancer in your heart."

"I would tell him myself," Augustus said, "but unfortunately I am literally stuck inside of His heart, so he won't be able to hear me." I laughed. He shook his head just looking at me.

(Chapter One, Page 16)

"My name is Augustus Waters," he said. "I'm seventeen. I had a little touch of osteosarcoma a year and a half ago, but I'm just here today at Isaac's request."

  

      "And how are you feeling?" asked Patrick.

      "Oh, I'm grand." Augustus Waters smiled with a corner of his mouth. "I'm on a roller coaster that only goes up, my friend."

"I thought of my dad telling me that the universe wants to be noticed. But what we want is to be noticed by the universe, to have the universe give a shit what happens to us - not the collective idea of sentient life but each of us, as individuals." - Hazel

"Sometimes you read a book and it fills you with a weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book" -Hazel

I know this feeling well, John Green. But at the same time, I feel selfish about it. Like it's my favorite book, or song or blah blah blah. Half of me doesn't want to share it but the other half of me is like EVERYBODY NEEDS TO READ THIS GENIUS. I finally understand what T means. (Not just about this- but in other area's in my life. I feel like bits of my Laura-ness are being eaten away by a few people. Since last year/ the summer I have cleansed myself of all that wasn't me and now that I have "me" its like a precious gift that I don't want anyone to have. You know?)

This book is simply amazing. I can't really tell you all of my favorite quotes or I would be copying the whole book, so instead I suggest you read it yourself. It really is an emotional book, you laugh, you think, you place yourself in their shoes, you cry and you hope. It goes beyond what I expected. Far beyond. 

Here are what some awesome people said about it: 

"John Green writes incredible, honest truths about the secret, weird hearts of human beings. He makes me laugh and gasp at the beauty of a sentence or the twist of a tale. He is one of the best writers alive and I am seething with envy of his talent." -E. Lockhart 

"A novel of life and death and the people caught in between, The Fault in Our Stars is John Green at his best. You laugh you cry, and then you come back for more." - Markus Zusak, bestselling and Printz Honor- winning author of The Book Thief

There are more! (All of these found one the back of the book =D ) 

So. Please please pleeaase read it!! There are copies sold everywhere. (I'm not even kidding. Check Wal-Mart.) 

By the way! I do NOT claim owner ship to any of these quotes!! They are not mine, they are John Green's.
