QUOTES: PAPER TOWNS BY JOHN GREEN

            

           You know, I have been trying to organize my favorite quotes from Paper Towns but I always failed to comply for a long time. Yesterday it happened. I discovered that all I needed were a cold weather minus the internet connection.

            One of my favorite is from the scene where they played a game I spy while Q and his friends are on the road to New York. It goes like this, “I spy with my little eye something I really like.” I am tempted to post this on my Facebook. I would like to know how my friends would react.

            Here are my favorite quotes from Paper Towns. I hope you find them on your list too.

FOUR MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES

"You may be disappointed if you fail. But you are doomed if you do not try."

 – Beverly Sills

            I am making some changes here in my blog. Yes! I knew people want to read about different cultures and tradition so I am going to do that. I am thinking of featuring places and food here in the Philippines. This is a very ambitious attempt for a person who has no means in travelling. But, I believe that luck would come to those who seek for the things that he really wants.

A QUOTE FROM DON'T LOOK BACK BY JENNIFER ARMENTROUT

“You had your moments. And those moments outshone everything.” – Don’t Look Back  by Jennifer Armentrout

            Perhaps this is not new to you. Explaining this quote might result paraphrasing and redundancy. But I will do it anyway. We have our own interpretations of things. We have our own philosophy in life. This is mine. I may have written lot nonsense things here my blog. But you never say a word about it. I believe that somehow you read an article or two that pleases you or a poem that touches your heart. Well, that might be my moment. And that moment is good.

QUOTES FROM THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN BY MITCH ALBOM

People often belittle the place where they were born. But heaven can be found in the most corners unlikely corners.

QUOTES AND REVIEW: THE BLOOD OF OLYMPUS BY RICK RIORDAN

              Finally! I am done reading the newest book of Rick Riordan – The Blood of Olympus. My high school friend and I are both waiting for the release of this book to know if Leo Valdez will find a way to go back to Calypso. Did he? Well, I don’t want to be a spoiler so I want you to read the book.

            If you have finished reading the book you might notice that most of the quotes I like are from Nico’s POV. I appreciate how Rick Riordan let his readers see how some of his characters have changed. I am talking about the characters of Nico di Angelo and his father Hades the God of Death. I never expected that the author would give Nico his change to “clear the air” with Percy’s character. I literally clapped my hand when I read what Nico told Percy (it is the last quote in this blog).

            Although my friend and I both agreed that the ending is a really a cliff hanger, we are glad that everyone (I mean the characters) are happy. Anyway, here are the quotes feel free to comment your favorite.

EXCERPTS FROM "ELEANOR AND PARK" BY RAINBOW ROWELL

DON’T SEND ME FLOWERS

“Don’t send me flowers when I’m dead. If you like me, send them while I’m alive.”

QUOTE: THE FAULT IN OUR STARS

“There will come a time, when all of us are dead. All of us. There will come a time when there are no human beings remaining to remember that anyone ever existed or that our species did anything. There will be no one left to remember Aristotle or Cleopatra, let alone you. Everything that we did and built and wrote and thought and discovered will be forgotten and all of this will have been for naught. Maybe that time is coming soon and maybe it is millions of years away, but even if we survive the collapse of our sun, we will not survive forever. There was a time before organisms experienced consciousness, and there will be time after. And if the inevitability of human oblivion worries you, I encourage you to ignore it. God knows what everyone else does.” -          The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
