Marisa TomeiBeing perfect is not about that scoreboard out there. It's not about winning. It's about you and your relationship with yourself, your family and your friends. Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye and know that you didn't let them down because you told them the truth. And that truth is you did everything you could. There wasn't one more thing you could've done. Can you live in that moment as best you can, with clear eyes, and love in your heart, with joy in your heart? If you can do that gentleman - you're perfect!

Napoleon HillThe perfect life, the perfect lie, I realised after Christmas, is one which prevents you from doing that which you would ideally have done (painted, say, or written unpublishable poetry) but which, in fact, you have no wish to do.

Geoff DyerLaw is an imperfect profession in which success can rarely be achieved without some sacrifice of principle.

Sri ChinmoyUnfortunately, I think it's very difficult to separate policy from politics. In a perfect world, in some instances you probably would want to. In other instances you'd probably say that the political element is important because it should, in a perfect world, match what the stakeholders need or want, or what the public is after.
Andrew Ross SorkinThe purpose of this is not show that I can do it better, because I think Superman is perfect.

To some people, apparently, this is a perfect description of injustice. To me, this is a perfect description of a gay bar in Iceland.
Fran LebowitzPhotography is not easy. You know it takes a painter or a sculpture or a musician years to perfect their technique. Then they're free to make an expression in a matter of moments.

William Saroyan
