Jodi Picoult
i know what it's like to wake up thinking you will be able to cast the people who play the starring roles in your life, only to realize that you have to watch it from the audience.
Jodi Picoult
I don't believe in writer's block. Most of writer's block is having too much time on your hands. My mantra is that you can always edit a bad page you can't edit a blank page.
Jodi Picoult
There are some things, I think, you're btter off not remembering.
Jodi Picoult
We make messes of our lives, but every now and then, we manage to do something that's exactly right. The challenge is figuring out which is which.
Jodi Picoult
Something still exists as long as there's someone around to remember it.
Jodi Picoult
I wonder if, as you get older, you stop missing people so fiercely. Maybe growing up is just focusing on what you've got, instead of what you don't.
