We are all flawed, my dear. Every one of us. And believe me, we've all made mistakes. You've just got to take a good hard look at yourself, change what needs to be changed, and move one, pet.

More quotes by Lauren Myracle
I did a lot of research on a couple different things. One was, how do people handle hating themselves and hating others? And hatred is a secondary emotion, I think it always springs from something else ... usually fear, that's probably what it is. So I looked a lot at that.

Even so, I was proud of myself for taking action at all. I didn't hide or run away or pretend the ugliness didn't happen. I stood up and said something that was true. I said it out loud, and by doing so, I was standing up for lots of people, not just me.
Lauren Myracle
Suck it up. This is the life you chose for yourself, so buck up and deal.
Lauren Myracle

I'm a southern girl, and I grew up with this slightly schizophrenic upbringing where I bounced back and forth between Atlanta, Georgia, and a tiny mountain town called Brevard, North Carolina. My parents were divorced, and my two lives were very different because of socioeconomic reasons.
Lauren Myracle
And you're figuring out who you are, and you haven't yet become stagnant in your thinking. You haven't solidified. And one thing that I find is that a lot of grown-ups tend to look back on their high school or middle school years and say, Oh, thank God all that's over.
Lauren Myracle
If she did see, I hoped she' be amazed. Amazed and thankful, because without even asking, she'd received a genuine autograph from a genuine girl from Atlanta. Not just any girl, but a girl who was, frankly, a pretty big deal. A girl who was me.
Lauren Myracle
I'm in loooove with this boy, and when you in love with someone, you don't give up on 'em, mo matter what.
Lauren Myracle
There's something strange about this big pink bunny.
Lauren Myracle
We all mess up. It's what we learn from our mistakes that matters.
Lauren Myracle
Also, as an author, character has always been what I'm most interested in - much more so than plot or setting, although those are good things too.
Lauren Myracle
Yes, that man acted ugly, she told us in plain English. But throwing more ugliness back at him ain't the answer.
Lauren Myracle
I'm sorry, he said again, and this time he took those words and owned them.
Lauren Myracle
I think that ties in with issues of identity as well - that sometimes there are parts of us we want to hide, and then there's other times we say, You know what? Nope. Done hiding that part.
Lauren Myracle
I didn't like being alone. Being alone was slightly better than having to deal with people, that's all. Or so I'd convinced myself.
