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
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
You still have a lot of time to make yourself be what you want. There's still lots of good in the world. Tell Dally. I don't think he knows. S. E. Hinton
I guess I just couldn't see standing there -- alive, talking, thinking, breathing, being -- one second, and dead the next. It really bothered me. Death by violence isn't the same as dying any other way, accident or disease or old age. It just ain't the same. S. E. Hinton
S. E. Hinton quote: "I go straight from thinking about my narrator to being him."
I go straight from thinking about my narrator to being him. S. E. Hinton
I didn't think much about that statement then. But later I would-I still do. I think about it and think about it until I think I'm going crazy. S. E. Hinton
Greasers will still be greasers and Socs will still be Socs. Sometimes I think it's the ones in the middle that are really the lucky stiffs. S. E. Hinton
