What I want, more than anything, is to turn back time a little. To become the kid I used to be, who believed whatever my mother said was one hundred percent true and right without looking hard enough to see the hairline crack.

More quotes by Jodi Picoult
Into the silence rips a sound that makes me let go of Max's hand and cover my ears. It is like the strafe of a bullet, nails on a chalkboard, promises being broken. It's a note I have never heard - this chord of pure pain - and it takes a moment to realize it is coming from me.
Jodi Picoult
There are just as many stories to be told in the dark spots s there are in the bright ones.
Jodi Picoult
Frankly, I wonder who Frank was, and why he has an adverb all to himself.
Jodi Picoult
What could it be like to find out, in a matter of minutes, that the person you believed the sun rose and set on was not the person you'd thought?

Coop kissed me deeply, drawing my breath from me in a long, sweet ribbon. Perhaps I haven't mentioned it, but I'm an expert when it comes to first steps. Are you, I said. Then tell me how. You close your eyes, Coop answered, and jump.

Jodi Picoult
I have loved before, but it didn’t feel like this. I have kissed before, but it didn’t burn me alive. Maybe it lasts a minute, and maybe it’s an hour. All I know is that kiss, and how soft her skin is when it brushes against mine, and that, even if I did not know it until now, I have been waiting for this person forever.
Jodi Picoult
No one gets to start where they left off it just doesn't work that way.
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
I'd like to say that this time I'd kill myself too..but I've never had that kind of courage.
Jodi Picoult
Because hate's just the flip side of love. Like heads and tails on a dime. If you don't know what it feels like to love someone, how would you know what hate is? One can't exist without the other.
Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
i'm sure i'm worth a lot more dead than alive
Jodi Picoult
You can blame your ugliness for keeping people at bay, when in reality you're crippled by the thought of letting another person close enough to popentially scar you even more deeply. You can tell yourself that it's safer to love someone who will never really love you back, because you can't lose someone you never had.
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
Some people, they get down in a hole so deep they can't figure out what to hold on to.
Jodi Picoult
When you care more if someone else lives than you do about yourself- is that what [love is]?
