The power of doing anything with quickness is always prized much by the possessor, and often without any attention to the imperfection of the performance.

To bear with patience wrongs done to oneself is a mark of perfection, but to bear with patience wrongs done to someone else is a mark of imperfection and even of actual sin.

I might be at the odd press conference with a little bit of spill on me because I'm not going to hide the imperfections of parenting. I don't think anyone needs that.

With 'Girls'... I feel like there's an impulse to try to make it look better or neater or more perfect, and when I watch theater, television, movies, it's always the imperfection I'm always more attracted to.

I don't want to be perfect, but I do want to be a role model. My mom always tells me that imperfections equal beauty. All of us are imperfect.

The fastest way to break the cycle of perfectionism and become a fearless mother is to give up the idea of doing it perfectly - indeed to embrace uncertainty and imperfection.

God is another name for human intelligence raised above all error and imperfection, and extended to all possible truth.

The God we serve does not seek out the perfect, but instead uses our imperfections and our shortcomings for his greater good. I am humbled by my own limitations. But where I am weak, He is strong.

God's forgiveness allows us to be honest with ourselves. We recognize our imperfections, admit our failures, and plead to God for clemency.

There would be no need for love if perfection were possible. Love arises from our imperfection, from our being different and always in need of the forgiveness, encouragement and that missing half of ourselves that we are searching for, as the Greek myth tells us, in order to complete ourselves.

Successful design is not the achievement of perfection but the minimization and accommodation of imperfection.

Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections.

Beauty is perfect in its imperfections, so you just have to go with the imperfections.

I don't love Photoshop; I like imperfection. It doesn't mean ugly. I love a girl with a gap between her teeth, versus perfect white veneers. Perfection is just... boring. Perfect is what's natural or real; that is beauty.

I find beauty in imperfection.

You are a human being and are allowed to be imperfect, and you are allowed to be flawed. There is a lot of beauty in your imperfections, in your uniqueness.

There's beauty in imperfection.

I think every single imperfection adds to your beauty. I'd rather be imperfect than perfect.

There is no real beauty without some slight imperfection.

There is a kind of beauty in imperfection.

Imperfection facilitates improvement, perfection facilitates stagnation.

Try not to live a life of hypocrisy; if you do, you will meet the same fate for the same behavior or actions; you had criticized others. Hypocrisy is unavoidable because it is part of the human race, but we don't need to embrace it. We all have imperfections and weaknesses; we must do our best to offer support instead of being hypocritical.

Because a lover sees only beauty, love transforms bodily imperfections into perfection.

I like to ensure that I have music and art all around me. My personal favorite is old maps. What I love about old maps is that they are both beautiful and imperfect. These imperfections represent that some of the most talented in history were still very wrong (early cartography was very difficult). As the majority of my work is analysis and advisory, I find it a valuable reminder that my knowledge is limited. No matter how much data or insight I have, I can never fully "map out" any business. Yet, despite the incompleteness of these early cartographers, so much was learned of the world. So much done and accomplished. Therefore, these maps, or art pieces, serve as something to inspire both humility and achievement. This simple environmental factor helps my productivity and the overall quality of my work. Again, it's like adding positive dice to my hand that are rolled each day.
