David Levithan
I find my greatest strength in wanting to be strong. I find my greatest bravery in deciding to be brave. I don't know if I've ever realized it before,[...] I think we both realize it now. If there's no feeling of fear, then there's no need for courage.
David Levithan
If other people see you differently, you’ll end up seeing them differently, too.
David Levithan
lying awake beside you, these thoughts run through my head.

I get it. The things you hope for the most are the things that destroy you in the end.
David Levithan
There is certainty in a ring. The non-ending, the non-beginning. The ongoing. The way it holds on to you not because it's fastened or stretched or adhered. It holds on because it fits.
