More quotes by S. E. Hinton
I'm a good judge of my own work.
S. E. Hinton
He died violent and young and desperate, just like we all knew he'd die someday.
S. E. Hinton
I guess I just couldn't see standing there -- alive, talking, thinking, breathing, being -- one second, and dead the next. It really bothered me. Death by violence isn't the same as dying any other way, accident or disease or old age. It just ain't the same.
S. E. Hinton
I wish I was a kid again, when I had all the answers.
S. E. Hinton
We couldn't get along without him. We needed Johnny as much as he needed the gang. And for the same reason.
S. E. Hinton
Greasers will still be greasers and Socs will still be Socs. Sometimes I think it's the ones in the middle that are really the lucky stiffs.
S. E. Hinton
Asleep, he looked a lot younger than going-on-seventeen, but I had noticed that Johnny looked younger when he was asleep too, so I figured everyone did. Maybe people are younger when they are asleep.
S. E. Hinton
If you want to be a writer, I have two pieces of advice. One is to be a reader. I think that's one of the most important parts of learning to write. The other piece of advice is 'Just do it!' Don't think about it, don't agonize, sit down and write.
S. E. Hinton
It seemed funny that the sunset she saw from her patio and the one I saw from the back steps was the same one. Maybe the two worlds we lived in weren’t so different. We saw the same sunset.
S. E. Hinton
He sure put things into words good.
S. E. Hinton
Dally was so real he scared me.
S. E. Hinton
...I knew he would be dead, because Dally Winston wanted to be dead and he always got what he wanted.
S. E. Hinton
Get smart and nothing can touch you.
S. E. Hinton
It's okay. We aren't in the same class. Just don't forget that some of us watch the sunset too.
S. E. Hinton
Movies can't ruin books. They can only ruin movies.
S. E. Hinton
I advise writing to oneself. If you don't want to read it, nobody else is going to read it.
S. E. Hinton
When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home.
S. E. Hinton
Some are going, some are staying....i'm in between.
S. E. Hinton
I gotta cut smoking or I'll never make track next year
S. E. Hinton
Johnny almost grinned as he nodded. Tuff enough, he managed, and by the way his eyes were glowing, I figured Southern gentlemen had nothing on Johnny Cade.
S. E. Hinton
