"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn’t be. And what it wouldn’t be, it would. You see?"
- Alice in Wonderland (via weallseekthetruth) (via quote-book)
"Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn’t carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life."
- Stephen King

Jon Klassen: I Want My Hat Back

Lessons children’s books probably shouldn’t teach us… but on the other hand… I Want My Hat Back is literary gold. That adorable blood-thirsty bear really wants his damn hat back! I like to think the real lesson here is about never giving up :D

"I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane."
- John Green
"Why are you sad?”
“Because you speak to me in words, and I look at you with feelings."
- Anna Karina, Pierrot Le Fou  (via massdestruction)

farewell-kingdom:

by Leonor Pérez

You know that feeling you get after you’ve just finished a really great book? That feeling of sudden wanderlust, the desire to know more, the need to experience adventure, the longing to understand humanity and its complexities… this picture makes me think of that feeling. The feeling of being immersed in deep sadness due to the end, yet still being happy. Weird, yet true; all book-lovers get that feeling every once in a while, and when you do, I’m sure you’d agree that this picture kind of visualizes that feeling.

Someone, please tell me where this is. They have John Green’s Looking for Alaska. Oh, how I’ve searched high and low for this book and they just have two copies of it around here? Someone, please tell me where this is. :(
Also, they have An Abundance of Katherines—a book I’ve read and have just completely fallen in love with.
Dear Mr. John Green,
I love your writings.
Sincerely, a book-lover.

But with knowing.] Knowing what to be afraid of."
