“Much of my life had been devoted to trying not to cry in front of people who loved me, so I knew what Augustus was doing. You clench your teeth. You look up. You tell yourself that if they see you cry, it will hurt them, and you will be nothing but A Sadness in their lives, and you must not become a mere sadness, so you will not cry, and you say all of this to yourself while looking up at the ceiling, and then you swallow even though your throat does not want to close and you look at the person who loves you and smile.”
—The Fault in Our Stars | John Green (via austentatious)

“It’s actually why we are people but somehow we forget that all that matters is people. And whether we walk away leaving them better or worse for having met us, we control that. I want you to promise me something- if you love someone, tell ‘em. Even if you’re scared that it’s not the right thing, even if you are scared that it’ll cause problems, even if you are scared that it will burn your life to the ground, you say it, and say it out loud. And then you go from there.”
—Grey’s Anatomy (via schwenkkkk)

“When you are a kid you always want things to stay the same. The same teachers, the same house, the same friends. It’s one of those things people say. You can’t move on until you let go of with the past. Letting go is the easy part, it’s the moving on that’s painful. So sometimes we fight it, trying to keep things the same. Things can’t stay the same though. At some point you just have to let it go. Move on. Because no matter how painful it is. It’s the only way we grow.”
—Grey’s Anatomy (via schwenkkkk)
“It’s easy to like someone from a distance.”
—Paper Towns | John Green (via austentatious)
“There are times in our lives when love really does conquer all: exhaustion, sleep deprivation, anything. And then there are those times when it seems like love brings us nothing but pain.”

“When we follow our hearts, when we choose not to settle, it’s funny. Isn’t it? A weight lifts, the sun shines a little brighter, and for a brief moment, we find a little peace.”
