"God wasn't love, couldn't be love. Because for me, love was a corpse."

--

Ellen Hopkins

“When you find your purpose, it is like your heart has been set alight with passion. You know it absolutely, without any doubt.”
“One makes a gift of one's life and endeavors by sanctifying it with love, and devotion and selfless service. When seeking to uplift others, we are uplifted in the process. Every kind thought or smile therefore benefits oneself as well as all the world.”
“I just go to lunch. And I never know when something is going into the file and something is not.”
“Self-esteem doesn't come simply from dressing well, but they are both something we can control. It's a missed opportunity when women say they don't have the money, figure, etc., because style is such a way to help cultivate the way women feel about themselves.”
“I can tell you where my Tonys are. They're in a beautiful place in my living room, in a glass cabinet.”
“What is it with McDonald's staff who pretend they don't understand you unless you insert the 'Mc' before the item you're ordering? It has to be a McChicken burger...a chicken burger gets blank looks. Well, I'll have a McStraw and jam it into your McEyes, you f**cking McTosser!”
“Man is unconquerable because he can make even his helplessness so entertaining. His motto seems to be "Even though He slay me, yet will I make fun of Him!”
