Life can change in an instant don't be so worried about the future that you forget to celebrate what you have right now.
Jodi Picoult
Families were never what you wanted them to be. We all wanted what we couldn't have: the perfect child, the doting husband, the mother who wouldn't let go. We live in our grown-up dollhouses completely unaware that, at any moment, a hand might come in and change around everything we'd become accustomed to.
Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
Whether or not you believe in Fate comes down to one thing: who do you blame when something goes wrong.
Jodi Picoult
To say there had been a loss was ludicrous one lost a shoe or a set of keys. You did not suffer the death of a child and say there was a loss. There was a catastrophe. A devastation. A hell.
Jodi Picoult
Her mouth is always on the verge of a smile. It makes her look like there's always something amazing she needs to tell me, even when it's just hello.
Jodi Picoult
The scariest thing in the world is thinking someone you love is going to die.
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
Missed opportunities were never superficial wounds they cut straight to the bone.
Jodi Picoult
words are like nets - we hope they'll cover what we mean, but we know they can't possibly hold that much joy, or grief, or wonder.
Jodi Picoult
Clearly God was in some kind of mood on my birthday.
