More quotes by David Levithan
Now when I have to remember a date, all I have to do is consult my rap sheet.

It is its own form of conversation -- you can learn a lot about people from the stories they tell, but you can also know them from the way they sing along, whether they like the windows up or down, if they live by the map or by the world, if they feel the pull of the ocean.

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.

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.
David Levithan
dissonance, n. Nights when I need to sleep and you can't. Days when I want to talk to you and you won't. Hours when every noise you make interferes with my silence. Weeks when there is a buzzing in the air, and we both pretend we don't here it.
David Levithan
But if I didn’t want to be alone, then why didn’t I want to be with anyone else?
David Levithan
I don’t want to know anything, and I want to know it all
David Levithan
I text tiny a minute later. MADE NEW GAY FRIEND. And he texts back PROGRESS!!!
David Levithan
You will always be my always.
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
Love weaves itself from hundreds of threads.
David Levithan
The world, right now, is only us.
David Levithan
Maybe your history just repeats and repeats until it batters you enough to snap the seams that hold you together
