More quotes by 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
True love would look a second time. True love would not be thwarted. True love would not accept no for an answer. He would search the world and certainly look again and again in every cottage in Euphrasia until he finds you.
Alex Flinn
I write contemporary fiction, and that is what my readers want to read.
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
What happened to romance? Sappy, soppy longhand love letters.

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.

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
The magic is over, but its effects will live forever.
Alex Flinn
Everyone can use a little beauty.

Good to know: Doctors can't cure you of being a beast.

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. Ever feel like you're breathing underwater and you have to stop because you're gulping in too much fluid.
Alex Flinn
I am a princess. I do not follow fashions--I make them.
Alex Flinn
This isn't a fairy tale. It's New York City.
Alex Flinn
Since I've written many of my books from a less-than-sympathetic viewpoint, I think that being able to see things from all sides is a useful talent.
Alex Flinn
You shouldn't miss someone who don't miss you, right?

Sometimes, unexpected things can happen.
