S. E. Hinton

Movies can't ruin books. They can only ruin movies.

I grew up here and my friends are here. There's nothing wrong with here.

My mother was physically and emotionally abusive. My father was an extremely cold man.

To me, tattoos are a way of people being able to express themselves and have other people look at them and get a little insight into who they are, without ever even saying a word to them.

I didn't want to be famous. I just wanted to earn enough money to have a nice life and enjoy acting.

Do not give in too much to feelings. A overly sensitive heart is an unhappy possession on this shaky earth.
