In the world I lived in, the world of human people, there were ties and debts and consequences and good deeds. That was what bound people to society; maybe that was what constituted society. And I tried to live in my little niche in it the best way I could. Charlaine Harris
About This Quote

When we look at society, we see people who love and trust and help and respect one another. We see the way in which people look out for each other in times of need and how they offer help when someone is in need. We see the way in which we do good deeds without expecting anything in return. We see the bonds that bind us together as a family. In this quote, John Green captures the essence of what it means to be a part of a family, a community, or a society.
