“HOW

do you define a word without concrete meaning? To each his own, the saying goes, so

WHY

push to attain an ideal state of being that no two random people will agree is

WHERE

you want to be? Faultless. Finished. Incomparable. People can never be these, and anyway,

WHEN

did creating a flawless facade become a more vital goal than learning to love the person

WHO

lives inside your skin? The outside belongs to others. Only you should decide for you -

WHAT

is perfect.”
― Ellen Hopkins, Perfect

“Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavor.”
― Truman Capote

“Be proud of your pain, for you are stronger than those with none.”
― Lois Lowry, Gathering Blue

“Because of fear, they made shelter and found food and grew things. For the same reason, weapons were stored, waiting.”
― Lois Lowry, Gathering Blue
