"I can't talk about our love story, so I will talk about math. I am not a mathematician, but I know this: There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a Bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”
Finished reading Faults and maaaan it was slightly depressing to have to go through Augustus' death twice - once in the movie and the other while reading. But I have to say the book is somehow less sad than the movie..
I loved many of the quotes in this book.. How does a guy think of all these quotes and stuff and weave it into a super good story??!??! Just how.
“I’m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we’re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have, and I am in love with you.”
- doesn't make much sense but it sounds good!
"Sometimes people don’t understand the promises they’re making when they make them,”
“Right, of course. But you keep the promise anyway. That’s what love is. Love is keeping the promise anyway."
Everybody, tfios! Yes, I'm a sucker who threw myself onto this bandwagon & I'm not getting down~~~
