More quotes by Jodi Picoult
The bigger the hole inside you, the more desperate you became to fill it.
Jodi Picoult
Sometimes it made her want to put her fist through glass other times, it made her cry a river.
Jodi Picoult
Sometimes when you find something you didn't really realize you were looking for, you just don't know how to react.
Jodi Picoult
Eventually, I told myself not to expect anything from him, and as a result it has gotten easier for me to take what comes.
Jodi Picoult
A place like this wears down everything, and tolerance is no exception. In here, coexistence passes for forgiveness. You do not learn to like something you abhor you come to live with it...You live and let live, and eventually that becomes enough.
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?
Jodi Picoult
Somewhere along the line, organized religion stopped being about faith, and started being about who had the power to keep the faith. You said that the purpose of religion was to bring people together. But does it, really? Or does it-knowingly, purposefully, and intentionally--break them apart?
Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
Anna is the only proof I have that I was born into this family. Instead of dropped off on the doorstep by some Bonnie and Clyde couple that ran off into the night. On the surface, we’re polar opposites. Under the skin, though, we’re the same: people think they know what they’re getting, and they’re always wrong. (Jesse)
Jodi Picoult
Isn't it amazing how, when you strip away everything, people are so much alike?
Jodi Picoult
My whole life was about her, what if her whole life wasn’t all about me?
Jodi Picoult
[I] don't think I was trying to kill myself. I just wanted to hurt, and understand exactly whay I was hurting. This made sense: you cut, you felt pain, period.
Jodi Picoult
In books, you always know what's coming next. There are no surprises.
Jodi Picoult
If you choose to be looking for something, you'd better be ready for whatever it is you are find. Because it may not be what you've been expecting.
Jodi Picoult
The answer is that there is no good answer. So as parents, as doctors, as judges, and as a society, we fumble through and make decisions that allow us to sleep at night--because morals are more important than ethics, and love is more important than law.
Jodi Picoult
I think there are crossroads in our lives when we make grand, sweeping decisions without even realizing it.
Jodi Picoult
I realize then that we never have children, we receive them. And sometimes it’s not for quite as long as we would have expected or hoped. But it is still far better than never having had those children at all.
Jodi Picoult
Even the most beautiful things can be toxic.
Jodi Picoult
Love was that way. You could not render it in black or white. It always came down to the strange, blended shades of grey.
Jodi Picoult
Me, I was already jaded and tarnished, skeptical that a fantasy world could keep reality at bay.
Jodi Picoult
