Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.

More quotes by Jodi Picoult
Seeing her sitting there unresponsive makes me realize that silence has a sound.
Jodi Picoult
Like a missing tooth, sometimes an absence is more noticeable than a presence.
Jodi Picoult
As a child, what I was missing was so much bigger to me than what I had. My mother-mythic, imaginary-was a deity and a superhero and a comfort all at once. If only I'd had her, surely, she would have been the answer to every problem if only I'd had her , she would have been the cure for everything that ever had gone wrong in my life.
Jodi Picoult
I can give or take elephants I never can find the cheetah-but the zebras captivate me. They'd be one of the few things that would fit if we were lucky enough to live in a world that's black or white.
Jodi Picoult
But this is inaccurate. A runaway train is an accident. Me, I'll jump in front of the tracks. I'll even tie myself down in front of the speeding engine. There's some illogical part of me hat still believes if you want Superman to show up, first there's got to be someone worth saving.
Jodi Picoult
But once you throw a stone, there are ripples in the pond, even if you remove the rock.
Jodi Picoult
I keep quite busy, walk 5 miles a day, and have an excellent hairdresser who keeps the gray out of my red hair.
Jodi Picoult
I learn from my own daughter that you don’t have to be awake to cry.
Jodi Picoult
But you could only remake your own future, not anyone else's, and for some people that just wasn't good enough.
Jodi Picoult
I think my writing has become cleaner.
Jodi Picoult
Jacob's room is the place entropy goes to die.
Jodi Picoult
I don't know whether you can look at your past and find, woven like the hidden symbols on a treasure map, the path that will point to your final destination.
Jodi Picoult
Shooting stars are not stars at all. They re just rocks that enter the atmosphere and catch fire under friction. What we wish on when we see one is only a trail of debris.
Jodi Picoult
It seems to me that no matter what religion you subscribe to, acts of kindness are the stepping-stones to making the world a better place--because we become better people in it.
Jodi Picoult
I personally subscribe to the belief that normal is just a setting on the dryer.
Jodi Picoult
Some people, they get down in a hole so deep they can't figure out what to hold on to.
Jodi Picoult
I imagined what it would be like to hold a butterfly in your hands something bejeweled and treasured and to know that despite your devotion it was dying by degrees.
Jodi Picoult
I imagine how cool it would be if all small talk wasn't lies.
Jodi Picoult
Something still exists as long as there's someone around to remember it.
Jodi Picoult
Just because you keep something a secret doesn't mean it never happened, no matter how much you want that to be true.
Jodi Picoult
