"You know we talked about where people go when they die. I just believe you go someplace and I seen her layin there and I thought maybe she wouldn't go to heaven because, you know, I thought she wouldn't and I thought about God forgivin people and I thought about if I could ask God to forgive me for killin that son of a bitch because you and me both know I ain't sorry for it and I reckon this sounds ignorant but I didn't want to be forgiven if she wasn't. I didn't want to do or be nothin that she wasn't like going to heaven or anything like that."

"What we strive for, ultimately, is love. You won't find real love because you're beautiful on the outside. It is drawn to inner beauty. Spend your energy crafting that, and you will know true love."

Love

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"There's a lesson here, and that is I have to find happiness inside myself before I try to partner again."

Self-Growth

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"In fact, since the accident, Mom doesn't love anyone. She is marble. Beautiful. Frigid. Easily stained by her family. What's left of us anyway. We are corpses.At first, we sought rebirth. But resurrection devoid of her love has made us zombies. We get up every morning, skip breakfast, hurry off to work or school. For in those other places, we are more at home.And sometimes we stagger beneath the weight of grief, the immensity of aloneness."

Grief

Ellen Hopkins
"Librarians were like guardian angels, with graying hair and beady eyes, magnified through reading glasses, and always read to recommend new literary windows to gaze through."

Libraries

"Living means taking chances. Risks. Playing safe all the time is being dead inside, even if you happen to still be breathing."

Vitality

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"I felt so fine I didn't once overanalyze the perfect emotion, budding inside. The one I'd always feared most."

Joy

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"It's probably weird to think about an addiction like it's a sentient being, but that's how it feels. Like it's something living inside you. Something you can't get rid of because killing it means killing you. I can't really understand addictions to drugs or alcohol. Things that control you. But an eating disorder is an addiction you control. Wait, is that paradoxical? I prefer to believe not."

Addiction

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"Tying the know means slipping a noose around love and choking it to death."

Control

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"Life is all about change. If it were static, think about how boring it would be. You can't be afraid of it, and you can't worry that you'll mess things up."

Change

Quote_1.png
Ellen Hopkins
"Do you ever dangle your toes over the precipice, dare the cliff to crumble, defy the frozen deity to suffer the sun, thaw feather and bone, take wing to fly you home?"
