Dullness is the spice of life. Which is why we must always use other spices.
David Levithan
The way you argued with me, you would have thought that we were debating the existence of God or whether or not we should move in together. These kinds of fights can never be won – even if you’re the victor, you’ve hurt the other person, and there has to be some loss associated with that.
David Levithan
I have taken advantage of other people's weaknesses in order to cover my own.
David Levithan
I still don’t know if this is a good quality or a bad one, to be able to be in the moment and then step out of it.
David Levithan
I try to convince myself that it's the alcohol talking. But alcohol can't talk. It just sits there. It can't even get itself out of the bottle.
David Levithan
Putting up with the fear of being with the wrong person because you can't deal with the fear of being alone.
