If you let the world in, you open yourself up to the world. Even if the world doesn't know that you're there.
David LevithanI am made for running. Because when you run, you could be anyone. You hone yourself into a body, nothing more or less than a body. You respond as a body, to the body. If you are racing to win, you have no thoughts but the body's thoughts, no goals but the body's goals. You obliterate yourself in the name of speed. You negate yourself in order to make it past the finish line.
David LevithanPeople are rarely as attractive in reality as they are in the eyes of the people who are in love with them. Which is, I suppose, as it should be.
David LevithanGame over," you say, and I don't know which I take more exception to-- the fact that you say its over, or the fact that you say it's a game.
David LevithanI hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. I hate it when you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.
