More quotes by David Levithan
I want to take back the secrets I told you so I can decide now whether to tell them to you again. I want to take back the piece of me that lies in you, to see if I truly miss it. I want to take back at least half the “I love you”s, because it feels safer that way.

I had made it somewhere special, and I'd gotten there all on my own. Nobody had given it to me. Nobody had told me to do it. I'd climbed and climbed and climbed, and this was my reward. To watch over the world, and to be alone with myself. That, I found, was what I needed.

me: you know what sucks about love? o.w.g.: what? me: that it's so tied to the truth.

Every relationship has a hard part at the beginning. This is our hard part. It's not like a puzzle piece where there's an instant fit. With relationships, you have to shape the pieces on each end before they go perfectly together.

I don’t want to throw everything away for something uncertain.

Indelible, adj. That first night, you took your finger and pointed to the top of my head, then traced a line between my eyes, down my nose, over my lips, my chin, my neck, to the center of my chest. It was so surprising. I knew I would never mimic it. That one gesture would be yours forever.
David Levithan
All this hoping for something- or someone- that's maybe hopeless. I'm having a hard time processing what I am supposed to believe, or if I'm even supposed to. There is too much information, and I don't like a lot of it.

me giving my mom romantic advice is kind of like a goldfish giving a snail advice on how to fly.” -Will Grayson (pg. 66)

What a strange phrase — –not seeing other people. As if it’s been constructed to be a lie. We see other people all the time. The question is what we do about it.
David Levithan
Let’s always love each other, and never be in love with each other.
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
The boy I loved didn't know I existed. Then again, he was obsessed with Camus, so he didn't know if any of us existed.
David Levithan
motif, n. You don’t love me as much as I love you. You don’t love me as much as I love you. You don’t love me as much as I love you.
David Levithan
As if when someone close to us dies, we momentarily trade places with them, in the moment right before. And as we get over it, we’re really living their life in reverse, from death to life, from sickness to health.
David Levithan
Ignorance is not bliss. Bliss is knowing the full meaning of what you have been given.
David Levithan
The clock always ticks. There are times you don't hear it, and there are times that you do.
David Levithan
I have taken advantage of other people's weaknesses in order to cover my own.

Sometimes memory tricks you. Sometimes beauty is best when it's distant.

Her vulnerability is open, but she’s safe within it.
David Levithan
If you zoom close-if you get really close to someone, if you really get close to yourself-then you lose the other person, you lose yourself entirely. You get so close you can't see anything anymore.
