Jesse Andrews Quotes

1. One thing I’ve learned about people is that the easiest way to get them to like you is to shut up and let them do the talking.
2. You’re just going to make the best thing you can make and everything else takes care of itself. That’s craft.
3. The best ideas are always the simplest.
4. This book probably makes it seem like I hate myself and everything I do. But that’s not totally true. I mostly just hate every person I’ve ever been. I’m actually fine with myself right now.
