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
The question I hate the most is How did you DO it - write novels and raise your children simultaneously! I mean, do MALE authors get asked that??
Jodi Picoult
People in the real world would kill for a happily ever after, and you're willing to just throw it away ? I look away from her. It's hardly a happily ever after when you wind up right at the beginning.
Jodi Picoult
I know that the first person I kissed won't be nearly as important as the last person I kiss.

Violence up close has a smell. Like copper blood and charcoal burning.
Jodi Picoult
My mother used to tell me that when push comes to shove, you always know who to turn to. That being a family isn't a social construct but an instinct.

Three months ago, if you asked me, I would have told you that if you really loved someone, you’d let them go. But now I look at you, and I dreamed about Maggie, and I see that I’ve been wrong. If you really love someone, Allie, I think you have to take them back.
Jodi Picoult
I think many of my books, including Handle with Care, including My Sister's Keeper circle back to how far are we willing to go for the people we love? I think love changes the way we think. It's the thing that takes you out of what your normal set of beliefs would be.
Jodi Picoult
I have several writer friends, but I don't involve them in my work process. I'm more likely to talk about the business of publishing with them.
Jodi Picoult
sometimes words are not big enough to contain all the feelings you are trying to pour into them.
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
We're [parents]) always bluffing, pretending we know best, when most of the time we're just praying we won't screw up too badly.
Jodi Picoult
I wonder if you've got a minute. I have many minutes, all of them used toward a common purpose.
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
Things that break - be they bones, hearts, or promises - can be put back together but will never really be whole.
Jodi Picoult
We all know that a sky with clouds in it is much more interesting than one that doesn’t have any.
Jodi Picoult
Whether it was power they sought, or revenge, or love-well, those were all just different forms of hunger. The bigger the hole inside you, the more desperate you became to fill it.

I was one of the first authors to have an active website. I'm totally obsessed with technology. I'm always looking for ways to connect with my readers. I answer all my fan mail.
