Jodi Picoult
You can fool yourself, you know. You'd think it's impossible, but it turns out it's the easiest thing of all.
Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
The problem isn’t with rock lyrics, it’s with the fabric of this society itself.
Jodi Picoult
if there isn’t a them, there can’t be an us.
Jodi Picoult
Logical thinking keeps you from wasting time worrying, or hoping. It prevents disappointment. Imagination, on the other hand, only gets you hyped up over things that will never realistically happen.
Jodi Picoult
The only way someone can leave you is if you let them.
Jodi Picoult
