Looking for Alaska

by John Green

“You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth, thinking about how you’ll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.”

The Great Perhaps was upon us, and we were invincible. The plan may have had faults, but we did not.

When you stopped wishing things wouldn’t fall apart, you’d stop suffering when they did.
