&quot;It&#039;s a paper town, look at all those culs-de-sac, those streets that turn in on themselves, all the houses that were built to fall apart. All those paper people living in their paper houses, burning the future to stay warm. All the paper kids drinking beer some bum bought for them at the paper convenience store. Everyone demented with the mania of owning things. All the things paper-thin and paper-frail. And all the people, too. I&#039;ve lived here for eighteen years and I have never once in my life come across anyone who cares about anything that matters.&rdquo; -John Green

Love is Greater, than the Pressure to be Perfect. <br /> What People Say ; Doesn&#039;t Define Who I Am.<br /> I I&#039;m A Boomerang, Doesn&#039;t Matter How You Throw Me, Turn Around And I&#039;m Back In The Game, Even Better Then The Old Me
