Ten unforgettable quotes from "The Fault in our Stars": Recall how Hazel and Augustus' promise of love inspire viewers to live and love again. Be reminded of how this tearjerker movie crawled through the hearts of teenagers and even adults.
Here are ten memorable lines from John Green's novel:
1. "It's hard as hell to hold on to your dignity when the risen sun is too bright in your losing eyes."
2. "Sometimes I dream that I'm writing a memoir. A memoir would just be the thing to keep me in the hearts and memories of my adoring public."
3. "It would be a privilege to have my heart broken by you."
4. "Because you're beautiful. I enjoy looking at beautiful people, and I decided a while ago not to deny myself the simpler pleasures of existence."
5. "You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world, old man, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices."
6. "And then there are books, which you can't tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like a betrayal."
7. "The joy you bring us is so much greater than the sadness we feel about your illness."
8. "Everyone in this tale had a rock-solid hamartia: hers, that she is so sick; yours, that you are so well. Were she better or you sicker, then the stars would not be so terribly crossed, but it is the nature of stars to cross, and never was Shakespeare more wrong than when he had Cassius note, "The fault, dear Brutus, is no in our stars / But in ourselves." Easy to say when you're a Roman nobleman (or Shakespeare!), but there is no shortage of fault to be found amid our stars."
9. "It felt like losing your co-rememberer meant losing the memory itself, as if the things we'd done were less real and important than they had been hours before."
10. "..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 that's what everyone else does."
