David Levithan

David Levithan
If other people see you differently, you’ll end up seeing them differently, too.

Every you, every me. Fractals. Fractures.
David Levithan
Please may this not be a game. Please may this not be a game. Because if it’s a game, I know I’m going to lose.

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 never know what you really want, if I can give it to you, or if I’m already too late.
David Levithan
Maybe, it's not the distance that's the problem, but how you handle it.
David Levithan
Readers embrace all kinds of characters as long as they are written with emotional truth.
David Levithan
Every time you love someone, you put not just your faith in them, but your faith in everything to the test.

Just because a person is beautiful doesn't mean there's no soul beneath. Doesn't mean that person hasn't suffered like everyone else, doesn't mean they don't hope to still be a good human being in an awful world.
