Rocks don't split at random. There is a weak spot in the solid-seeming surface, and if enough stress is placed there, it breaks.

It's the way you say thank you like you're genuinely thankful. I have never met anyone else that does that on a regular basis.

There has to be a moment at the beginning when you wonder whether you're in love with the person or in love with the feeling of love itself.

If the moment doesn't pass, that's it -- you're done.

And if the moment does pass, it never goes that far. It stands in the distance, ready for whenever you want it back. Sometimes it's even there when you thought you were searching for something else, like an escape route, or your lover's face.

I love the way that all of the words that were used were so carefully selected. I love the way that I related to some moments and how there were moments I could only wonder about. I love that it felt effortless. I love that all of those words were so deep in the way that they cut my heart. I love that I didn't mind how much it hurt to read.

The natural state. Our moods change. Our lives change. Our feelings for each other change. Our bearings change. The song Changes. The air changes. The temperature of the shower changes.

Accept this. We must accept this.

Quotes from David Levithan, the author of The Lover's Dictionary. Its' books like this that makes me fall in love with reading, over and over again.
