separated at birth: flaws and scars

 
Andrew Garfield on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
October 12, 2017
talking about why we don't need movie stars:
they're a projection of perfection, we are all a lot of things,
dark and light, a collection of bad habits,
focus on perfection, need to accept ourselves in entirety,
beingness, not enoughness,
pretending to be real

Bridgerton, season 2, last episode
Daphne's confession in the rain to Simon
just because something is not perfect 
does not make it unworthy of love, 
you felt you needed to be without fault to be loved,
"I cannot pretend that I do not love you,
I love all of you, even the parts that are too dark
and too shameful, every scar, every flaw, every imperfection"
