S. E. Hinton quote: "You know what the crummiest feeling you can have is? To hate..."
You know what the crummiest feeling you can have is? To hate the person you love the best in the world. S. E. Hinton
I made up my mind that I'd get out of that place and I did...I learned that if you want to get somewhere, you just make up your mind and work like hell til you get there. If you want to go somewhere in life, you just have to work till you make it. S. E. Hinton
Sometimes, I feel like I spent the first part of my life wishing to be a teen-age boy, and the second part condemned to being one. S. E. Hinton
That's why people don't ever think to blame the Socs and are always ready to jump on us. We look hoody and they look decent. It could be just the other way around - half of the hoods I know are pretty decent guys underneath all that grease, and from what I've heard, a lot of Socs are just cold-blooded mean - but people usually go by looks. S. E. Hinton
S. E. Hinton quote: "If you have two friends in your lifetime, you're lucky. If you..."
If you have two friends in your lifetime, you're lucky. If you have one good friend, you're more than lucky. S. E. Hinton
Your mother is not crazy. Neither, contrary to popular belief, is your brother. He is merely miscast in a play. He would have made the perfect knight in a different century, or a very good pagan prince in a time of heroes. He was born in the wrong era, on the wrong side of the river, with the ability to do anything and finding nothing he wants to do. S. E. Hinton
They used to be buddies, I thought, they used to be friends, and now they hate each other because one has to work for a living and the other comes from the West Side. They shouldn't hate each other... 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
S. E. Hinton quote: "I was a tomboy and most of my close friends were male."
I was a tomboy and most of my close friends were male. S. E. Hinton
S. E. Hinton quote: "I grew up here and my friends are here. There's nothing wrong..."
I grew up here and my friends are here. There's nothing wrong with here. S. E. Hinton
California is like a beautiful wild kid on heroin, high as a kite and thinking she's on top of the world, not knowing she's dying, not believing it even if you show her the marks. S. E. Hinton
I've been thinking about it, and that poem, that guy that wrote it, he meant you're gold when you're a kid, like green. When you're a kid everything's new, dawn. It's just when you get used to everything that it's day. Like the way you dig sunsets, Pony. That's gold. Keep that way, it's a good way to be. S. E. Hinton
Nothing Stay Forever" "Nature’s first green is gold, "Her hardest hue to hold. "Her early leaf’s a flower; "But only so an hour. "Then leaf subsides to leaf. "So Eden sank to grief, "So dawn goes down today. "Nothing gold can stay. -- Robert Frost S. E. Hinton
...people get hurt in rumbles, maybe killed. I'm sick of it because it doesn't do any good. You can't win...even if you whip us. You'll still be where you were before- at the bottom. And we'll still be the lucky ones with all the breaks. So it doesn't do any good, the fighting and the killing. It doesn't prove a thing. S. E. Hinton
S. E. Hinton quote: "Can you see the sunset real good on the West side? You can see..."
Can you see the sunset real good on the West side? You can see it on the East side too. S. E. Hinton
