More quotes by Jodi Picoult
The first time someone I loved left me behind...I didn't know how my family would balance. We had been such a sturdy little end table, four solid legs. I was sure we would now be off-kilter, always unstable. Until one day I looked more closely, and realized that we had simply become a stool.

Jodi Picoult
Doctors put a wall up between themselves and their patients nurses broke it down.
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
The best thing about endings is knowing that just ahead is the daunting task to start over.
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
I understand better than she'd imagine that history is indelible. You can mask it you can patch it smooth and clear but you always know what's hidden underneath.
Jodi Picoult
A fire can't burn forever. Eventually, it consumes itself.
Jodi Picoult
Being a parent wasn't just about bearing a child. It was about bearing witness to its life.
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
For me, every book is a journey - questioning a really difficult topic that most people don't want to talk about, much less write about. And that's what I need that works for me as a writer.
Jodi Picoult
Everyone deserves a happy ending.
