More quotes by David Levithan
Our moments are music, and sometimes – just sometimes – we can catch them and put them into some lasting form. If we didn’t have music, I don’t think we could ever be truly happy, and if we didn’t have special moments, we would never find music.
David Levithan
There's no way for them to take away my sadness, but they can make sure I am not empty of all the other feelings.
David Levithan
breathtaking, adj. Those moments when we kiss and surrender for an hour before we say a single word.
David Levithan
What I learned The well-documented difference Between alone and lonely The comfort of knowing
David Levithan
Then I go in the den and turn on Law & Order, since the only thing i can really count on in life is that whenever I turn on the TV, there will be a Law & Order episode.
David Levithan
It is an awful thing to be betrayed by your body. And it's lonely, because you feel you can't talk about it. You feel it's something between you and the body. You feel it's a battle you will never win . . . and yet you fight it day after day, and it wears you down. Even if you try to ignore it, the energy it takes to ignore it will exhaust you.
David Levithan
There is something so intimate about saying the truth out loud. There is something so intimate about hearing the truth said. There is something so intimate about sharing the truth, even if you are not entirely sure what it means.
David Levithan
Our lives change. Our feelings for each other change. Our bearings change. The song changes. The air changes. The temperature of the shower changes. Accept this. We must accept this.
David Levithan
Every time you love someone, you put not just your faith in them, but your faith in everything to the test.
David Levithan
To love--to fall--is not a question. To touch--to kiss--to speak--those are questions.
David Levithan
I have no idea how he knows when I need him. We can go weeks without speaking, and then, when my blue moods threaten to turn black, he will show up and tell me my moods are azure indigo cerulean cobalt periwinkle and suddenly the blue will not seem so dark, more like the color of a noon-bright sky. He brings the sun.
David Levithan
Things are not magical because they've been conjured for us by some outside force. They are magical because we create them.
David Levithan
Game over, you say, and I don't know which I take more exception to-- the fact that you say its over, or the fact that you say it's a game.
David Levithan
I don't want to fall. All I want to do is stand on solid ground.
David Levithan
The way you argued with me, you would have thought that we were debating the existence of God or whether or not we should move in together. These kinds of fights can never be won – even if you’re the victor, you’ve hurt the other person, and there has to be some loss associated with that.
David Levithan
The way you're singing in your sleep The way you look before you leap The strange illusions that you keep You don't know But I'm noticing The way your touch turns into arcs The way you slide into the dark The beating of my open heart You don't know But I'm noticing
David Levithan
But I still has enough longing for that concept that I didn't want to dispel it completely. Meaning: I didn't want to tell Lily that I felt we'd all been duped by Plato and the idea of a soul mate. Just in case it turned out that she was mine.
David Levithan
With all due respect, if you’re forty-three, then I’m a fetus.
David Levithan
Long live protest songs, in whatever form they take.
David Levithan
It's the way you say thank you like you're genuinely thankful. I have never met anyone else who does that on a regular basis.
David Levithan
