When feminism falls short of our expectations, we decide the problem is with feminism rather than with the flawed people who act in the name of the movement.

I think we love watching people that are flawed because we're all flawed.

Brad Garrett

In the best stories, people are morally complex; they are flawed. We read them because the world is flawed, and we want to see it truthfully represented. And because it can be thrilling to be shocked and upset, and even to feel, for chilling moments, what it's like to be a bad person.

Russell Smith

There's a remarkable amount of sexism on TV. When male characters are flawed, they're interesting, deep and complex. But when female characters are flawed, they're just a mess. It's good to put more flawed but interesting female characters out there because it promotes equality.

Ellen Pompeo

Religion is flawed, but only because man is flawed.

Dan Brown

Both villains and heroes are a bit boring, really, unless they're flawed and broken somehow. If they're not flawed and broken, then clearly they need to be broken and made flawed. That's what an author does if he or she has any dignity.

Ben Peek

People are afraid to show women with demons. But I think it's important for women to see flawed female characters. We're held to a perfect standard, but every woman is flawed.

Riley Keough

I'm an actor, and I want to play flawed characters, and I'm a writer that wants to write flawed characters, trying to let something out and hoping people relate through that or have fun experiencing the story.

Brett Gelman

Aidan Gillen

All my characters are quite relatable, as they are flawed, true, and honest. All of us are flawed; nobody is pure and pious.

Vikrant Massey

I know I'm flawed - but perfect is boring anyway! Flawed is good!

Priyanka Chopra

All human belief systems are inherently flawed.

Moby

I'm pretty aware that the pursuit of perfection is, inherently, a flawed concept.

Jonny Wilkinson

I'm not an Adonis, that's for damn sure. I've never really thought of myself that way, and it doesn't matter to me. My favorite actors aren't Adonises. Dustin Hoffman is a flawed-looking man; he's amazing to me. Tom Hanks is flawed-looking; people love him. Same with Gene Hackman.

Shia LaBeouf

I think it's great to be flawed. I am hugely flawed, and I like it this way. That's the fun of life. You fall, get up, make mistakes, learn from them, be human and be you.

Priyanka Chopra

Our anti-corruption systems have inherently and intently been kept flawed.

Arvind Kejriwal
