Quote by Hank Green

“I hate writing this because my dad is going to read it, but having a parent who is always a little bit disappointed in you isn't ever going to be healthy. The question is whether it is an unhealthy weight that I have to struggle with or an unhealthy fuel that can actually propel me.”
