I really liked the page distribution per chapter. Wasn‘t satisfied with the ending though 7.9/10

“Not because we are the same but because we fit, and because the more time that goes on, the more I cannot imagine my life taking place without you.”

“The thing about relationships it‘s not necessary to say everything.”

“I think sacrifice is in opposition to manifestation. If you want your dreams you should look for abundance not scarcity.”

7.4/10

“As long as we can love each other and remember the love we had, we can die without ever really going away. All the love you created is still there, all the memories you created are still there. You live on in the hearts of everyone you have touched and nurtured while you were here. Death ends a life not a relationship.”

“If we know in the end we can have peace with dying we can finally do the really hard thing make peace with living.”

“Lost love is still love. It just takes a different form that‘s all. You can‘t see their smile, or tousle their hair, or move them across the dance floor. But when those senses weaken, another heightens, memory. Memory becomes your partner. You nurture it. You hold it. You dance with it. Life has to end love doesn‘t.”

All parents damage their children it cannot be helped, like pristine glass youth absorb the prints of its handlers.

Looking for Alaska | Green, John

it applies to turtles and turtlenecks, Alaska the girl and Alaska the place, because nothing can last, not even the earth itself. The buddah said that suffering was caused by desire, we'd learned, and that the cessation of desire meant the cessation of suffering. when you stopped wishing things wouldn't fall apart, you'd stop suffering when they did.

Looking for Alaska | Green, John

Everything that comes together falls apart. Everything. The chair I‘m sitting on. It was built, and so it will fall apart. I‘m gonna fall apart, probably before this chair. And you‘re gonna fall apart. The cells and organs and systems that make you you—they came together, grew together, and so must fall apart. The Buddha knew one thing science didn‘t prove for millennia after his death: Entropy increases. Things fall apart.

8.7/10

“And if that meant that I would never get to think of you that way, as long as you were happy, it was ok. That‘s when I realized that I really loved you.”

“I would die for you. But I won't live for you.”

“So, I guess we are who we are for alot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there.”

“everything that comes together, falls apart, when we accept that everything falls apart and life is suffering we will stop suffering when it does.”

“We are all going”

“I don‘t know where there is, but I know it‘s somewhere I Hope it‘s beautiful.”

“I go to seek a great perhaps”
