1 " All I've learned in today's Shakespeare class is: Sometimes you have to fall in love with the wrong person just so you can find the right person. A more useful lesson would've been: Sometimes the right person doesn't love you back. Or sometimes the right person is gay. Or sometimes you just aren't the right person.Thanks for nothing, Shakespeare. "

2 " Opening up to the wrong person is like putting ammo in their hands. "

3 " Everyone's allowed to be in love with the wrong person at some point. In fact, it's a mistake not to be. "
― Harriet Evans , Happily Ever After
4 " Great leaders understand the importance of assigning the right people to the right positions. If you put the wrong person in the wrong place, no matter how talented or earnest they are, they will never reach the peak of their potential. Their strengths will be underutilized and they may never measure up to your expectations. Reassign to get the best out of others and the situation. "
― Susan C. Young
5 " But life isn’t about learning to forgive those who have hurt you or forgetting your past. It’s about learning to forgive yourself for being human and making mistakes. Yes, people disappoint us all the time. But the harshest lessons come when we disappoint ourselves. When we put our trust and our hearts into the hands of the wrong person and they do us wrong. And while we may hate them for what they did, the one we hate most is ourself for allowing them into our private circle. How could I have been so stupid? How could I let them deceive me? We all go through that. It’s humanity’s Brotherhood of Misery. "
― Sherrilyn Kenyon , Time Untime (Dark-Hunter #21; Hellchaser, #4; Were-Hunter, #7)
6 " Marrying the wrong person only denies you both a chance at your soul mate. "
― Alessandra Torre
7 " Betrayals that make your soul scream so loud you wonder why no one else hears it. In the end, we are all alone in that private hell. But life isn't about learning to forgive those who have hurt you or forgetting the past. It's about learning to forgive yourself for being human and making mistakes. Yes, people disappoint us all the time. But the harshest lessons come when we disappoint ourselves. When we put our trust and our hearts into the hands of the wrong person and they do us wrong. And while we may hate them for what they did, the one we hate most is ourself for allowing them into our private circle. How could I have been so stupid? How could I let them deceive me? "
― Sherrilyn Kenyon
8 " Underneath my imagination there didn't seem to be anything solid except for the space where I shoved my pain and sadness. Besides that, there were only twisted steel threads of axiety, woven through my body and brain, wired into me like a constant warning. Watch out, stay still, move away, stay silent, fight back, run and hide. Even when I was dreaming, but more so when I was awake, there was the constant fear of being caught off-guard, or by the wrong person at the wrong time. "
9 " I bask in that sympathy because it's nice to have somebody who cares, even if it's the wrong person for the wrong reasons. "
― Nenia Campbell , Tantalized
10 " Testing the wrong person can prove a massive failure for the antagonist. "
― Carlos Wallace , The Other 99 T.Y.M.E.S: Train Your Mind to Enjoy Serenity
11 " If I ever have to cast an acting role, I want the wrong person for the part. I can never visualize the right person in a part. The right person for the right part would be too much. Besides, no person is every completely right for any part, because part in a role is never real, so if you can't get someone who's perfectly right, it's more satisfying to get someone who's perfectly wrong. Then you know you've really got something. "
― Andy Warhol , Andy Warhol: A Retrospective
12 " Everybody winds up kissing the wrong person goodnight. "
― Andy Warhol
13 " The trouble is I'm not very good at trusting my own instincts. I've been wrong before. A lot." " About what? You worry too much, about everything. You're to hard on yourself." " I was wrong about Rory -" " You were twenty-five, twenty-six! Everyone's allowed to be in love with the wrong person at some point. In fact, its a mistake not to be. "
14 " Who is the wrong person to criticise?You "
― Idries Shah , Reflections
15 " it's weird how we try our best to build our lives , and then we simply fall in love with the wrong person who destroys everything we happen to give years to build and the real problem is sometimes we don't even mind! "
16 " If you marry the wrong person for the wrong reasons, then no matter how hard you work, it's never going to work, because then you have to completely change yourself, completely change them, completely - by that time, you're both dead. "
