Jodi Picoult
I remember for that one moment, I believe I was hitch hiking on one of those comets, falling so fast that I'd surely burn away before I ever hit the ground.
Jodi Picoult
Some people, they get down in a hole so deep they can't figure out what to hold on to.
Jodi Picoult
From that point of view, I realized that my hole was not miles deep after all. My father, in fact, could stand on the bottom and it only reached up to his chest. Darkness, you know, is relative.
Jodi Picoult
