You, Perfect? No way. A Goodreads quote

Many people, i always thought, quite erroneously, that they are perfect and make no mistakes.
They think they are gods.  Hello, you, if you are one of them, are NOT.
Realize it.

and here is someone who agrees with it

Perfection is not a thing to aspire for.  It means unchanging and static, and dead.

The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.
