What a lovely human being.

Nerd boys. I know that nerd boys don’t sparkle in the sunshine, but they’re sensitive, they’re caring, they’re sweet, they’ll do nice stuff for you. They’re a little bit needy, I’ll grant you that they’re a little bit needy.

Isn’t it also that on some fundamental level we find it difficult to understand that other people are human beings in the same way that we are? We idealize them as gods or dismiss them as animals.
Paper Towns, by John Green
Saying ‘I notice you’re a nerd’ is like saying, ‘Hey, I notice that you’d rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you’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?’ In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even ‘lame’ is kind of lame. Saying ‘You’re lame’ is like saying ‘You walk with a limp.’ Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he’s done all right for himself.
John Green (loveeeeee)
Fan Girl Moment
From now on if I need inspiration or to feel something akin to understanding I’m just going to read pages of John Green quotes. I mean, that man has a talent with words that is glorious to behold, in addition to wit, humour and charm. I just had one of those moments where I wanted to share every single thing I read with a multitude of the people I care about. Not even in a “oh, look at this”, sort of way, more of an aggressive, shove it in their face and screech “don’t you see how good this is! do you even understand?”
I don’t have adequate words to describe this particular type of obsession (which only seems to posses me when it comes to literature – although a milder form comes in to play when I’m entrapped in other art forms.)
Anyway, there’s a few in my queue, and I’m sure they’ll be more with time. Something for everyone (including me) to look forward to.
sigh.
P.S. I really want to read looking for Alaska now. REALLY badly.
