“I’m in love with you,” he said quietly.
“Augustus,” I said.
“I am,” he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. “I’m in love with you, and I’m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. 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.”

“Much of my life has been devoted to trying not to cry in front of people who loved me. … You clench your teeth. You look up. You tell yourself that if they see you cry, it will hurt them, and you will be nothing but A SADNESS in their lives, and you must not become a mere sadness, so you will not cry, and you say all of this to yourself while looking up at the ceiling, and then you swallow even though your throat does not want to close and you look at the person who loves you and smile.”

“Like, I realize that this is irrational, but when they tell you that you have, say, a 20 percent of living five years, the math kicks in and you figure that’s one in five… So you look around and think, as any healthy person would: I gotta outlast four of these bastards.”
