Good morning, Hank, it’s the day before Thanksgiving. It’s also the 102nd anniversary of the publication of Albert Einstein’s famous paper - Does the Inertia of a Body Depend Upon It’s Energy Content? Of course the answer to that question was - heck, yes, it does! Hank, someday I’d like to write a analogous paper with a similar conclusion called ‘Does the Awesomeness of a Body Depend Upon it’s Nerd Content?’ I would use this paper to prove through the magic of physics that the accumulation of knowledge increases the overall worldwide level of awesome.

Did you always wear glasses? Well, no, not when I came out of my mother’s womb. Initially after the womb-birth-experience I was not wearing glasses, but then I did put them on shortly afterwards when I was about one day old because I just didn’t look good without them.

John Green (P4A 2011)

Doctor Who would be much better with the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack. It should always have that on it. ‘I’m the doctor, in the Tardis, using my sonic screwdriver/ Traveling through space and time, to save the world, and have a laugh.’

It is very hard for me, however, to get rid of books and to moderate the number of books that I have. I mean, some of these books, let’s face it, I’m never going to read again. Consider, for example, The Day Nobody Shared…in your pants.

John Green, Brotherhood 2.0: February 23, 2007: Books (via memorableyoutubequotes)

'What's your patronus?' ...I don't know, like a pepperoni pizza with eyes?

Right now, I am wearing shiny gold pants. i'm not wearing anything on my lower half other than just a pair of shiny gold boxer pants. And, the only reason that you don't see them is because I always blog from the waist up. EVEN NOW. Even now you're not sure.There's that little glimmer in the back of your head of 'Maybe he is wearing shiny gold pants.' I'm not.

Alex Day

That's not awkward, is it? You're just stupid.

Alex Day, talking about the "that awkward moment when..." meme

I don’t know why I felt the need to compile these, but I did it.

Yeah. In the end, text is a very empty form of communication. When you go from actual physical presence to spoken word and then another step we moved to text, it becomes a much more shallow way of communicating.

Hank Green

[fuckyeahnerdfighterquotes]

It's like being knighted. That's how I feel. This is like the nerd version of getting knighted. Like, NPR is the Queen of nerds and she is just like *boonk* *boonk*"

Going on dates is quite weird, cause what’s the moment when you tell people that you make your money on the internet making Youtube videos? Like, that always sounds like you do porn.
