Flaw Quotes

“But I need to feel beautiful and holy things around me, always: music, mystery cults, symbols, myths. I need it, and I refuse to give it up... That’s my fatal flaw.”
― Hermann Hesse, Demian

“YOU ARE JUST

You are not just for the right or left,
but for what is right over the wrong.
You are not just rich or poor,
but always wealthy in the mind and heart.
You are not perfect, but flawed.
You are flawed, but you are just.
You may just be conscious human,
but you are also a magnificent
reflection of God.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“Work on making yourself a complete being. Though you were born with the physical traits of one sex, you possess the characteristics of both - including those of plants and animals. You were created as a nearly complete universal being, but with flaws. True perfection can only be achieved when one recognizes that they need to combine their oneness with others and nature. Only then is one considered complete.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“The truth is, there is good and bad in everybody, in every nation, in every race, and in every religion. To hear someone say that all the people that belong to a certain country, race, or religion are bad — is extremely untruthful and makes the person making the statement lose credibility right away. We are all flawed and even nature is flawed. Nobody is perfect, and no country, race or religion is perfect. Duality and polarity are imprinted in everything in nature — in all humans, and even within ourselves. For example, there are those who are ignorant, and those who are wise.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“We, as women, have this slight flaw. Yes, admitting it, we are flawed with a faultless memory in regards to the good and bad in men...Stored within our memory banks is every loving gesture and sugar coated word, thoughtful moments, places, arguments, indiscretions, lies all catalogued, timed and dated...The list, for us, is endless...
It is not our fault...You give us so much to remember...”
― Virginia Alison

“We’re all flawed. We’re all monsters. Our ugly parts are in different places, but they’re all the same.”
― K. Weikel, Replay: Green

“And this is the unwritten history of man, his unseen, negative accomplishment, his power to do without gratification for himself provided there is something great, something into which his being, and all beings can go.
He does not need meaning as long as such intensity has scope.
Because then it is self-evident; it is meaning.”
― Saul Bellow, Herzog

“Every day as I wave to my children when I drop them off at school, or let one of them have a new experience—like crossing the street without holding my hand—I experience the struggle between love and non-attachment. It is hard to bear—the extreme love of one’s child and the thought that ultimately the child belongs to the world. There is this horrible design flaw—children are supposed to grow up and away from you; and one of you will die first.”
― Sarah Ruhl, The Oldest Boy: A Play in Three Ceremonies

“She doesn’t snarl. She smiles instead, but it is a half smile. She is hiding something, an imperfection. There is something about her teeth, the sides of them that she doesn’t want me to see. I am fascinated by this unseen flaw. I want to know what she is hiding. Perhaps this is what is missing from my life, some mysterious flaw that I won’t want to correct”
― Lacey Reah

“Being always right is not always right in the wrong places.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson, The Book of Maxims, Poems and Anecdotes

“Perfect' - the most misattributed word in English language
A 'perfect' thing can never be improved - at least by what the meaning implies. Why should anyone want to be perfect?
Unfortunately, this happens to be my greatest flaw. Turning a relative idea into an absolute one. Seeking perfection in others - or should I say 'subconsciously seeking perfection in myself' and projecting a benchmark based in fantasy on others.
Makes one come across as judgmental, intolerant, arrogant or impatient - in short, a platinum-class jerk. But you, my friend, are too kind to tell me. Or you'd rather bear for the moment and cuss me roundly when I'm gone. That's unfair to us both.
If I have ever done this to you, I am sincerely sorry.
Accept my profound apologies”
― Eniitan Akinola

“There comes a time when one suddenly discovers that there will never be a time for the coming of the perfect person, or believe that God sends people from heaven, so one finds a random fellow, either righteous or unrighteous, excellent or Impaired, and in no time become what God had ordained.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson

“Perfect yourself because you strive to attain your own perfection....After all, the eye of the beholder may be flawed...”
― virginia Alison

― Jolene Stockman, Total Blueprint for World Domination - Illustrated

“Our leaders keep saying phrases like, “Let the market decide.” or “The market will get to the efficient outcome.” Really? The market is a very flawed institution that does not deserve the nearly religious kind of endorsement of it that our leaders are eager to provide over and over again.”
― Richard D. Wolff, The Sickness is the System: When Capitalism Fails to Save Us from Pandemics or Itself

“People who see your flaws often are blind to their own.”
― Jeffrey G. Duarte

“However intelligent a woman may be, with whatever perfections she may be endowed, there will still be a flaw that blights her own and other people's lives.”

― Lauren Edmondson, Ladies of the House: A Modern Retelling of Sense and Sensibility

― Bob Rotella, How Champions Think: In Sports and in Life
