Ellen Hopkins Perfect Quotations

Anger is easier than forgiveness.

Or might the soul clone itself, create a perfect imitation of something yet to be defined? In this way, can a reflection be altered?

‎Perfect? How can you define a word without concrete meaning?

She is angle. I am curve. Together, we are geometric sculpture, and we make perfect sense.

Commitment means losing yourself to gain something temporary. Nothing lasts. Not looks. Not love.

Transformation Isn't easy when most of the people in your life think you're already perfect, and want you to stay just how they see you. Try to begin a new phase, you'd better expect push-back. Try to create a whole new you, your friend list will shrink considerably.

Fake Is that what you are if you choose to improve the basic not perfect you?

The truth is, I've always been afraid of letting anyone get too close. I built a wall around me, a barricade to hide behind those few times someone wanted entry to my heart.

She's incredible, not that she's perfect. But you once said imperfections create character.

Alone, there is only the person inside. I've grown to like her better than the stuck-up husk of me. Alone, there is no perfect daughter, no gifted high school junior, no Kristina Georgia Snow. There is only Bree." (Ellen Hopkins)
