Finishing something is the hardest part. You know it's not as good as you hoped. You know there are plot problems. You know that by finishing it, you're saying - even if only to yourself - 'This is the best I can do.' And because it's not perfect, that's really hard.

We need to learn to work with political systems that are not perfect instead of taking the view: let's first fix the politics, then we'll fix the rest.

Abhijit Banerjee

Work Politics Wit

I'm very open and honest, and I feel like it's important for women to hear that we're not perfect; none of us are perfect. And sometimes we aspire to have these ideas in our heads of what perfection is, and I probably would've been better off if I'd left myself alone.

Adrienne Bailon

I am not perfect, but my faith keeps me as close to the straight and narrow as possible.

Ainsley Earhardt

I myself, as well as Toyota, am not perfect. I, more than anyone, wish for our customers' cars to be safe.

Akio Toyoda

Car Wish Well

Through a long and painful process, I've learned that happiness is an inside job - not based on anything or anyone in the outer material world. I've become a different and better person - not perfect, but still a work in progress.

Alana Stewart

I will be the first to admit I am not perfect and I make mistakes.

Alberto Gonzales

Will Takes Take

I've been in this league a long time. The league's not perfect. But I'm definitely proud of a lot of my teammates, coaches, trainers, owners.

Alex Smith

Time Trainers Trainer

Bills ought to be passed with deliberation by committees. Change should be achieved in a bipartisan manner. Incrementally, day by day, we should reach a consensus - not perfect, by any means - but something that we can be proud of, nonetheless.

Alexandra Petri

Life can be tough sometimes. But I think it just starts with admitting, 'Okay, the world's not perfect, how do we live our lives within that and not be miserable?'

Amy Lee

I'm not perfect but I always try to give of my best.

Genius is not perfected, it is deepened. It does not so much interpret the world as fertilize itself with it.

Andre Malraux

World Wit Us

An artist never works under ideal conditions. If they existed, his work wouldn't exist, for the artist doesn't live in a vacuum. Some sort of pressure must exist. The artist exists because the world is not perfect. Art would be useless if the world were perfect, as man wouldn't look for harmony but would simply live in it.

Andrei Tarkovsky

The Republican party is not perfect, but if you put this party's record of achievements on one side of a balance scale and the Democrat's record on the other, the Republican side would slam the table.

Angela McGlowan

Men Art You

It feels great to be a role model and I'm very careful with the things I do. I'm not perfect, I do make a lot of mistakes, but I try my best.

Angie Stone

You can't start with imbalance and end with peace, be that in your own body, in an ecosystem or between a government and its people. What we need to strive for is not perfection, but balance.

Ani DiFranco

A woman's life is not perfect or whole till she has added herself to a husband. Nor is a man's life perfect or whole till he has added to himself a wife.

Anthony Trollope

In a big family the first child is kind of like the first pancake. If it's not perfect, that's okay, there are a lot more coming along.

Antonin Scalia

Like other human institutions, courts and juries are not perfect. One cannot have a system of criminal punishment without accepting the possibility that someone will be punished mistakenly.

Finishing something is the hardest part. You know it's not as good as you hoped. You know there are plot problems. You know that by finishing it, you're saying - even if only to yourself - 'This is the best I can do.' And because it's not perfect, that's really hard.

I wanted fans to know that I'm human and not perfect.

Anushka Sharma

I'm not perfect.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

The principal mark of genius is not perfection but originality, the opening of new frontiers.

Arthur Koestler

Everybody should be able to enjoy their life, because you only live once. So I just want to get it all out there and be the best role model that I can be, if people want to put me in that kind of predicament. I mean, I didn't ask to be a role model, because I'm not perfect.

ASAP Rocky

I strive for perfection, but I'm not perfect. But what I can say is my morals are totally different than any other 24-year-old rapper my age now. I look at life totally different. A whole other aspect. I have different views and morals on life in general. And opinions.

ASAP Rocky

I am certainly not perfect. I don't think you should try to be perfect for anyone. When you come to terms with that, then you're OK.

Ashley Greene

The drums are very trashy: it's all electric, it's very in your face, and it's not perfect. It's raw, and I think that's what 'garage' means.

Aubrie Sellers

I came into the game showing you that I'm no angel. I'm not perfect and this is why I tell people off the top.

August Alsina

I've always tried to explain democracy is not perfect. But it gives you a chance to shape your own destiny.

Aung San Suu Kyi

It's very fun to be the hunter of the sounds. The hunter of the right energy. And it's not really about if every sound is correct; it's more the energy - if it hits you in some way, it doesn't really matter to me if it's not perfect. I'm still very excited while hunting for songs.

Aurora

Liberal capitalism is not perfect, but compared to the other 'isms,' it's far superior.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We've made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.

Barack Obama

Our society is not perfect and this will come as no surprise to many of you.

Barbara Amiel

I think what 'The Monster' means to me is I find it really hard - like a lot of other people in the world - to really be OK in my own skin. It was a message to myself saying, 'It's OK that you're not perfect.' I'm gonna learn to love myself and accept myself, even though I'm a little crazy.

Bebe Rexha

Everybody makes mistakes. I'm definitely not perfect.

Ben Howland

Life is about growth. People are not perfect when they're 21 years old.

Bill Walton

Yes, I do believe that human beings are not perfect.

Bobby Deol

There is only one person who represents all Americans. We need a president who speaks out and condemns racism and anti-Semitism. We need a president who recognizes everyone is equal. We are not perfect, but we all deserve respect.

Brad Schneider

I'm not perfect.

Brett Favre

Every day is not perfect.

Brett Favre

I am not perfect. I know that. None of us is perfect.

Brett Kavanaugh

We're not perfect; no one's perfect. You know how many people have been injured in the ring? But for some reason, I was, like, showcased in such a way of, like, this evil person and 'Look what she's done,' and I got bullied really bad.

Brie Bella

Maybe you're not perfect, but you're willing to actually look at yourself and take some kind of accountability. That's a change. It might not mean that you can turn everything around, but I think there's something incredibly hopeful about that.

Brie Larson

I didn't want to just watch a woman who was getting it right all the time. We're not perfect.

Brie Larson

In public, when my kids have not been behaving great - because that's life, my kids are not perfect, okay - I've noticed other people watching me. And I felt judged, because I'm obviously in the public eye. So that's been hard.

Busy Philipps

The technique to apply lipstick is no technique. It's okay if it's not perfect.

Camille Rowe

I know I'm not perfect.

Carmen Electra

I think it's great that she's not perfect and wasn't perfect. I think that's maybe why so many young girls and different people look up to Mac and respect her even more.

Catherine Bell

We're not perfect, but we want to do the right thing.

Charlie Bell

Women tend to judge other women harshly. We should be kinder to each other, accept that we're all different and can make different choices. Not go for some kind of stereotypical idea that we're perfect. Frankly, I'm not perfect.

Cherie Blair

Love isn't always pretty, it's not perfect and it's messy and it hurts and sometimes as much as you want to say you love someone, you have to say I wish I didn't love you.
