Jodi Picoult
Did you ever walk through a room that's packed with people, and feel so lonely you can hardly take the next step?
Jodi Picoult
Ross held her face between his hands and kissed her. He tasted doubt on her tongue and pain on the roof of her mouth. He swallowed these, and drank again. Consumed, she had no choice but to see how empty he was inside, and how, sip by sip, she filled him.
Jodi Picoult
Some people, they get down in a hole so deep they can't figure out what to hold on to.

Jodi Picoult
There's no way to explain to a child that the line between good and evil isn't nearly as black and white as a fairy tale would lead you to believe. That an ordinary person can turn into a villain, under the right circumstances. That sometimes we dragon slayers do things we aren't proud of.
Jodi Picoult
I wish I could tell him I understand: the higher you raise your hopes, the farther you have to fall.
Jodi Picoult
I imagine how cool it would be if all small talk wasn't lies.
Jodi Picoult
I’d much rather pretend I’m somewhere else, and any time I open the pages of a book, that happens.
Jodi Picoult
don't say it. don't tell me that nobody's going to stare at me, because they will. don't tell me it doesn't matter, because it does. and don't tell me i look fine because that's a lie.
Jodi Picoult
Everytime I look at a zebra, I can't figure out whether it's black with white stripes or white with black stripes, and that frustrates me.
Jodi Picoult
I have never fit into this town, this marriage, this skin. I am the child who was picked last to play tag I am the girl who laughed although she did not get the joke I am the piecemeal part of you that you pretend doesn't exist, except it is all I am, all the time.
Jodi Picoult
Sometimes all you need to live one more day is a good reason to stick around.
Jodi Picoult
...when people we love make choices, we don't always understand them. But we can go on loving them, just the same. It isn't a matter of comprehension. It's forgiveness.
