Quote by John Green
I'm not a mathematician, but I know this: There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. there's .1 and .12 and .112 and and infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2 or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.
Summary
This quote is from "The Fault in Our Stars" by John Green and it highlights the concept of infinity and the varying degrees of its magnitude. It emphasizes that even within infinity, there are different sizes of infinite sets and that some infinities can be larger than others. The speaker expresses their feelings of longing for more time and experiences with their loved one, yet they ultimately appreciate the finite time they had together and cherish the unique and meaningful "little infinity" they shared.
