More quotes by Ellen Hopkins
Alone everything changes. Some might call it distorted reality but it's exactly the place I need to be.
Ellen Hopkins
Communication Was never big in my house. We sat together over dinner, but the only sound you'd hear was crunching and chewing and the little ones asking for more, please. We lived, all boxed up in invisible containers. We hardly knew the people we called sister or father. Jackie and I were the exceptions to that rule.
Ellen Hopkins
Sorry. But I don't need some money-grubbing preacher defining my relationship with God.

The problem with being grounded is it gives you a whole lot of unavoidable time to think. NOt even pulling weeds can take away your ability to plot all the varied and wonderful things you might do to get even, or at least to make up, just get a smidgen for time lost to TV and yard work and house cleaning.
Ellen Hopkins
Addiction is rarely conquered alone.

Life is full of choices. We don't always make good ones. It seems to Kristina you gotta be crazy to open your windows, invite the demons in. Bree throws rocks at the feeble glass, laughs

Imperfections create character.
Ellen Hopkins
Ask me, it's a sin to pervert faith with religion. Despite every church, mosque, & synagogue in it, this is not the world any God worth his salt would have created.
Ellen Hopkins
I haven't cried since Mom died. I mean, after something like that, what's left to cry about, right? But I let myself cry now. Loss is loss. Doesn't take death to create it. (266)
Ellen Hopkins
When you've only got one little shimmer of sunshine, you capture it best you can.
Ellen Hopkins
I know I can't stay here forever
Ellen Hopkins
Just keep on shining that light. The rest will take care of itself.
Ellen Hopkins
Red and raw like my heart, pried from your's, the two beating, no longer together, but a thousand miles between them when only yesterday they thumped in unison.
Ellen Hopkins
I need to capture my sprite with trembling hands. Except I could crush her. Wonder how many small things of beauty - flowers, seashells, dragonflies - have met such a demise. Wonder how much fragile love has collapsed beneath the weight of confession.
Ellen Hopkins
Whatever has happened in someone's past, the future is theirs to shape. The first step is to find a way out.
Ellen Hopkins
God i've missed you. I can't wait to give you your present. He kisses me hotter this time, and beneath me, through his denim and mine. I can feel the promise of his Christmas gift soon to come.
Ellen Hopkins
Girls are impossible to satisfy. Not every girl. Not me. I'd be happy if he'd just like me a little.
Ellen Hopkins
When all else fails, dream bigger.
