Jodi Picoult
There are some dreams that get stuck between your teeth when you sleep, so that when you open your mouth to yawn awake they fly right out of you.
Jodi Picoult

Only the liar knows he's lying
Jodi Picoult
If you want something to be true badly enough, you can rewrite it that way, in your head. You can even start to believe it.
Jodi Picoult
