And sometimes, he was less lucid. He'd run around his cell like a caged animal he'd rock back and forth he'd swing from topic to topic as if it was the only way to cross the jungle of his thoughts.

More quotes by Jodi Picoult
Nobody, who looks at a shard of flint lying beneath a rock ledge, or who finds a splintered log by the side of the road would ever find magic in their solitude. But in the right circumstances, if you bring them together, you can start a fire that consumes the world.
Jodi Picoult
The best place to cry is on a mother's arms.
Jodi Picoult
Sometimes all you need to live one more day is a good reason to stick around.
Jodi Picoult
The joke's on them. One little hypodermic wont' be enough. Split a piece of wood, and they'll find me. Lift up a stone, and they'll find me. Look in the mirror, and they'll find me...If you really want to know what makes someone a killer, ask yourself what would make you do it.
Jodi Picoult
Beliefs are the roads we take to our dreams. Believe you can do something-or believe you can't-and you'll be right everytime.
Jodi Picoult
And just like that, something inside shifted very subtly, so that all the empty spaces in him suddenly disappeared, so that his breath timed to hers, so that his blood sang. This is why there was music, he realized. There were some feelings that just didn’t have words big enough to describe them.
Jodi Picoult
People ask all the time how I'm doing, but the truth is, they don't really want to know.
Jodi Picoult
sometimes words are not big enough to contain all the feelings you are trying to pour into them.
Jodi Picoult
Did you ever wonder if the person in the picture is the same one you see when you look in the mirror? - That's the eternal question, isn't it? Are we born who we are, or do we make ourselves that way?
Jodi Picoult
Stem cell research has become such a polarizing issue in America... and I wanted to bring it down to the personal level, instead of the political.
Jodi Picoult
Motherhood is a Sisyphean task. You finish sewing one seam shut, and another rips open. I have come to believe that this life I'm wearing will never really fit.
Jodi Picoult
I don't believe in writer's block. Most of writer's block is having too much time on your hands. My mantra is that you can always edit a bad page you can't edit a blank page.
Jodi Picoult
I think that ordinary people who are placed in extraordinary circumstances find themselves pushed beyond their limits, and learn new truths about themselves.
Jodi Picoult
I think people do things all the time in the name of love that they shouldn't be doing - such is the nature of us.
Jodi Picoult
The thinnest slice would be teeming with memories of a love so strong it turned you inside out and left you gasping, and would be an identical match to a slice stored in the heart of a soul mate.
Jodi Picoult
The English judged a person so that they'd be justified in casting her out. The Amish judged a person so that they'd be justified in welcoming her back. Where I'm from, if someone is accused of sinning, it's not so that others can place blame. It's so that the person can make amends and move on.
Jodi Picoult
We all have things that come back to haunt us. Some of us just see them more clearly than others.
Jodi Picoult
People changed. Even the people you thought you knew as well as you knew yourself.
Jodi Picoult
People work too hard to figure out the meaning of their lives. Why me, why now. The truth is, sometimes things don't happen to you for a reason. Sometimes it's just about being in the right place at the right time for someone else.
Jodi Picoult
Missed opportunities were never superficial wounds they cut straight to the bone.
