Quote by John Geddes
...I didn't want you flawless - I have a bare wall at home that's flawless - I wanted your character trapped in the amber of your skin...
Summary
This quote highlights the speaker's preference for imperfection and depth over perfection. Rather than seeking someone flawless or physically perfect, the speaker values the uniqueness and complexity of a person's character. The reference to a flawless bare wall implies emptiness and superficiality, whereas the skin serves as a symbol of someone's individuality and identity. The speaker desires to see their partner's true essence preserved and visible, like an amber trap, capturing and celebrating their authentic self.
