More quotes by Ellen Hopkins
Love is Chocolate The unprocessed kind. Dark. Bitter. But always with the promise of sweet perfection. All it takes is sugar- that certain someone's kiss, flavored with possibility. If Dani has taught me anything, it's that life is brimming with possibilities. Every single day brings choices.

Ellen Hopkins

Ellen Hopkins
Perfect? How can you define a word without concrete meaning?
Ellen Hopkins
Believe it or not, I sold my first novel, Crank, with only seventy-five pages complete. It was in verse then, and it was hard-hitting then.
Ellen Hopkins
That's what I'll be. A silhouette, rarely seen, and yet believed in.
Ellen Hopkins
What's the point of being a hero when everyone thinks you're a villain?
Ellen Hopkins
Funny how when your life is mostly bullshit, you turn off feeling. Sometimes it's hard to turn it back on again.
Ellen Hopkins
Some secrets can't be kept too long. No matter how hard you try to hide them, sooner or later they scurry out from your cupboards, cockroaches on the run.
