More quotes by David Levithan
We all contain mysteries, especially when seen from the inside.
David Levithan

Jesus died for our sins, Noah says solemnly. What?!? I reply, choking back my thoughts. I was just seeing if you were listening.
David Levithan
Measure the hope of that moment, that feeling. Everything else will be measured against it.
David Levithan
I don't want to steal anybody's story. I very much want to use the stories that I hear to get lost in my mind, to tell a larger story.
David Levithan
I know the odds are all against me and I know you might not feel this way too but I know I would rather die trying to know if I could mean something to you

David Levithan
I am learning that a life isn't real unless someone else knows its reality. And I want my life to be real.
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
