Your hand fits mine like the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle
Jodi Picoult
When you’re hurting deeply, you go inward.
Jodi Picoult
I could think whatever I wanted to, but realized that any promises I made myself were destined to be broken.
Jodi Picoult
I'm always writing, even when I'm not at my desk. I write on my hands. I used to write on my kids' hands, too, but they don't let me any more. When I'm driving I sometimes write all the way up my arms.
Jodi Picoult
I have no idea what Andrew might have done, and I do not ask. She believes that I can fix this, and like always, that's enough to make me think that I can. I'll take care of it,: I say, when what I really mean is: I'll take care of you.
Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
The nurses, I have already learned, are the ones who give us the answers we’re desperate for.

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
I think my writing has become cleaner.
Jodi Picoult
Maybe if God gives you a handicap, he makes sure you've got a few extra doses of humor to take the edge off.
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
Accidents did not just happen. From time to time they were carefully plotted, calculated, and arranged to one’s advantage-all, of course, under the cloak of happenstance.
Jodi Picoult
If you want something to be true badly enough, you can rewrite it that way, in your head. You can even start to believe it.
Jodi Picoult
You might have to lose control before you could find out what you'd been missing.
Jodi Picoult
There are always sides. There is always a winner and a loser. For every person who gets, there's someone who must give.
Jodi Picoult
A duck walks into a bar and the bartender asks, what'll it be? The duck doesn't answer because it's a duck.
Jodi Picoult
Sometimes, all it takes to become human again is someone who can see you that way, no matter how you present on the surface.
Jodi Picoult
What I really want to tell him is to pick up that baby of his and hold her tight, to set the moon on the edge of her crib and to hang her name up in the stars.
