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
I have no more idea now of who I am than I did before. But at least I know that. And I'm starting to figure out who I want to be.
David Levithan
I’ve found that people tend to trust other people who dress like them.
David Levithan
Love is so painful, how could you ever wish it on anybody? And love is so essential, how could you ever stand in its way?
David Levithan
I say good-bye to hope, but I also say good-bye to hope's disappointment.
David Levithan
When you live as I do, you cannot indulge in jealousy. If you do, it will rip you apart.
David Levithan
When it all come down to it, the thing that matters most in a relationship is principles [...] We have the same idea what’s right and what’s wrong, and that’s got us through any number of things. If you can have that with someone, then you’re most of the way toward love. Not just lover-love. Any kind of love.
David Levithan
I know from experience that beneath every peripheral girl is a central truth. She’s hiding hers away, but at the same time she wants me to see it.
David Levithan
Tell me a way you think this can work. We'll find a way, I tell her. That's not an answer. It's a hope. Hope's gotten us this far. Not answers.
David Levithan
I don’t want to know anything, and I want to know it all
David Levithan
To get something you must give something away. To hold something you must give something away. To love something you must give something away.
David Levithan
Getting what you want is just as difficult as not getting what you want. Because then you have to figure out what to do with it instead of figuring out what to do without it.
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
I say good-bye to the part of myself that misses him so much.
David Levithan
It is much harder to lie to someone's face. But. It is also much harder to tell the truth to someone's face.
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.
David Levithan
Because that's the thing about mean people: They make you think that the world will never work, that there are divides that you will fall into if you approach. It takes a whole lot of good people to fill in the breach created by a single mean one.
David Levithan
I'm always standing on the edge of something bad.
David Levithan
I was horribly bookish, to the point of coming right out and saying it, which I knew was not socially acceptable. I particularly loved the adjective bookish, which I found other people used about as often as ramrod or chum or teetotaler.
David Levithan
What did it matter to me? Did I think that by making you rational about one thing, I could make you rational about everything? Maybe. Or maybe I just wanted to save you from your fears
