More quotes by Alex Flinn
It would be so great to have someone my own age to talk to, even if it was just about books.
Alex Flinn
Those who do not know how to see the precious things in life will never be happy.
Alex Flinn
I enjoy people who aren't afraid to say what they mean. It makes life so much easier!

I am a princess. I do not follow fashions--I make them.

In stories like Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, they always say the heroine is 'as good as she is beautiful.' I wondered if people just wanted that to be true, wanted the beautiful to be good. I wondered if they wanted the ugly to be bad because then they wouldn't have to feel bad for them.

Anyone else feel like that? Like your life's a big act. Like you're trying to be a man when you're just a scared kid, trying to keep under control when you really want to scream, cry, or maybe hit someone.

Every girl pretends she is a princess at one point, no matter how little her life is like that.
Alex Flinn
I love you, I thought. But I didn't say it. It was not that I feared she would laugh in my face. She was far too kind for that. My fear was a greater one - that she won't say it back.
Alex Flinn
That's what true love should be like-the person should be part of your soul and you should know what they're feeling all the time.
Alex Flinn
Maybe we judge people too much by their looks because it's easier than seeing what's really important.
Alex Flinn
I have a great deal of empathy for anyone who's having a hard time. I believe this ability to see another's viewpoint has served me well as a writer.
Alex Flinn
What happened to romance? Sappy, soppy longhand love letters.
Alex Flinn
Everyone can use a little beauty.
Alex Flinn
People make such a big deal about looks, but after a while, when you know someone, you don't even notice anymore.
Alex Flinn
Sometimes, unexpected things can happen.
