Text Quotes
She is my first and only love. Most people know that their first love will not be their only love. But for me, she is both (David Levithan Quotes)
Most people, I’ve noticed, are instinctively harsh to strangers. They expect every approach to be an attack, every question to be an interruption (David Levithan Quotes)
Sometimes memory tricks you. Sometimes beauty is best when it’s distant (David Levithan Quotes)
Every relationship has a hard part at the beginning. This is our hard part. It’s not like a puzzle piece where there’s an instant fit. With relationships, you have to shape the pieces on each end before they go perfectly together (David Levithan Quotes)
Once the storm comes out, the landscape changes. What you had before is altered in some way. And you have a choice: build something new and better from what is left or abandon it (David Levithan Quotes)
There is something so intimate about saying the truth out loud. There is something so intimate about hearing the truth said. There is something so intimate about sharing the truth, even if you are not entirely sure what it means (David Levithan Quotes)
You know what happens to girls who loves lost boys? They become lost themselves (David Levithan Quotes)
Her mind is an unquiet one, words and thoughts and impulses constantly crashing into each other (David Levithan Quotes)
Family, like arsenic, works best in small doses... unless you prefer to die (David Levithan Quotes)
We didn’t believe in fate, but we believed in serendipity. We felt very lucky (David Levithan Quotes)
The minute I knew I was in love was the minute when there was no question about it (David Levithan Quotes)
The assumption of the word reunion is that, once you’re together again, you are united. Two as one. Pulling close to someone is only a temporary symbol. It’s the way you breathe with each other that’s the telltale sign (David Levithan Quotes)
I should talk to him I know I should talk to him. But I do not talk to him. I watch after him from afar and love him (David Levithan Quotes)
Pride is allowed to have an element of worry, especially when you are a mother (David Levithan Quotes)
There is the sudden. There is the eventual. And in between, there is the living (David Levithan Quotes)
You spend so much time, so much effort, trying to hold yourself together. And then everything falls apart anyway (David Levithan Quotes)
There is no reason that we should ever be ashamed of our bodies or ashamed of our love (David Levithan Quotes)
I’ll see you later, he says, and as he does, he runs his finger briefly over my wrist. It passes over me like air, and makes me shiver like a kiss (David Levithan Quotes)
I think one of the highest compliments you can give a person is that when you are talking to him, you are not thinking about the fact that you are talking to him. That is, your thoughts and words all exist on a single, engaged level. You are being yourself because you aren’t bothering to think about who you should be. It is like when you talk in a dream (David Levithan Quotes)
It scares me how hard it is to remember life before you. I can’t even make the comparisons anymore, because my memories of that time have all the depth of a photograph. It seems foolish to play games of better and worse. It’s simply a matter of is and is no longer (David Levithan Quotes)
There are times when I worry that I’ve already lost myself. That is, that my self is so inseparable from being with you that if we were to separate, I would no longer be. I save this thought for when I feel the darkest discontent. I never meant to depend so much on someone else (David Levithan Quotes)
Even when I detach, I care. You can be separate from a thing and still care about it. If I wanted to detach completely, I would move my body away. I would stop the conversation midsentence. I would leave the bed. Instead, I hover over it for a second. I glance off in another direction. But I always glance back at you (David Levithan Quotes)
It was a laugh that came from the tip of his toes, gaining force and soul as it traveled through his body and out into the world in mirthful bursts. There wasn’t anything fake about it; it was an amusement park of a laugh, and when it appeared, you wanted to jump on board (David Levithan Quotes)
... and suddenly you started singing out your love for me. My name and everything, loud enough to reach the top floors of all the buildings. I should have told you to stop, but I didn’t want you to stop. I didn’t mind if your love for me woke people up. I didn’t mind if it somehow sneaked into their sleep (David Levithan Quotes)
We hold hands as we walk through town. If anybody notices, nobody cares. I know we all like to think of the heart as the center of the body but at this moment, every conscious part of me is in the hand that he holds. It is through that hand, that feeling, that I experience everything else (David Levithan Quotes)
This is what love does: It makes you want to rewrite the world. It makes you want to choose the characters, build the scenery, guide the plot. The person you love sits across from you, and you want to do everything in your power to make it possible, endlessly possible. And when it’s just the two of you, alone in a room, you can pretend that this is how it is, this is how it will be (David Levithan Quotes)
I think that if you were somehow able to measure the weight of human kindness, it would have weighed more on 9/11 than it ever had. On 9/11, all the hatred and murder could not compare with the weight of love, of bravery, of caring. I have to believe that (David Levithan Quotes)
I never have people tell me their stories. I usually have to figure them out myself. Because I know that if people tell me stories, they will expect them to be remembered. And I cannot guarantee that. There is no way to know if the stories stay after I’m gone. And how devastating would it be to confide in someone and have the confidence disappear? I don’t want to be responsible for that (David Levithan Quotes)
Indelible, adj. That first night, you took your finger and pointed to the top of my head, then traced a line between my eyes, down my nose, over my lips, my chin, my neck, to the center of my chest. It was so surprising. I knew I would never mimic it. That one gesture would be yours forever (David Levithan Quotes)
It’s the secret smile you get from knowing that, somewhere, there is someone who is yours. Not in the sense that you own her or control her. She is yours because you can say anything to her, whenever you need to. And she can do the same, whenever she needs to (David Levithan Quotes)
