I want my own books to have their own shelves, you said, and that's how I knew it would be okay to live together.
David Levithan
placid, adj. Sometimes I love it when we just lie on our backs, gaze off, stay still.

People often say that when couples are married for a long time, they start to look alike. I don't believe that. But I do believe their sentences start to look alike.
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
That lasting things do, in fact, last.
David Levithan
We'd said we'd keep in touch. But touch is not something you can keep as soon as it's gone, it's gone. We should have said we'd keep in words, because they are all we can string between us--words on a telephone line, words appearing on a screen.

And once again I think about how people use the devil as an alias for the things they fear. The cause and effect is backward. The devil doesn't make anyone do anything. People just do things and blame the devil after.
David Levithan
It would be too easy to say that I feel invisible. Instead, I feel painfully visible, and entirely ignored.
David Levithan
There's no way to release yourself from a memory. It ends when it wants to end, whether it's in a flash or long after you've begged it to stop.
David Levithan
You never let things go unanswered for too long. Emails. Phone calls. Questions. As if you know the waiting is the hardest part for me.
David Levithan
Life goes on. Get over it. You're still young. It'll get better. Blah, Blah, Blah
David Levithan
I am proud that I defy your categories. I am proud that I don't fit easily into any box. I am proud of all the things I am and all the things i can be. Question yourself every time you think you only see one thing in me.
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.
David Levithan
This is as much a part of my story as anything else. Friendship is love as much as any romance.
David Levithan
But I had a feeling I wasn't supposed to find her that way. She was not a needle. This was not a haystack. We were people, and people had ways of finding each other.
David Levithan
But there was something about you that made me think of sparks and motion.
David Levithan
They never played games with each other, they never had tow worry where they stood, because if either of them had a moment of wavering, the other would say I love you and would mean it and all doubts were forgiven because in this one case it was found that love conquers all.
