Loneliness is a mirror, and recognizes itself.
Jodi Picoult
Unlike Elise, who could discover parts of a person they didn't even know were absent, you specialized in tangible, but that, I feared, was only a matter of time.
Jodi Picoult
I feel I'm able to get rid of any demons lurking in my psyche through my writing, which leaves me free to create all of this and to enjoy our family life, stepping away from all the fictional traumas and the dramas. If I write about family in crisis, then I won't have to live through it, I guess.
Jodi Picoult
True love can break the most powerful curse
Jodi Picoult
What we all want, really, is to be loved. That craving drives our worst behavior.
Jodi Picoult
In the end, though, I did not kill my sister. She did it all on her own. Or at least this is what I tell myself.
Jodi Picoult
I didn't want to see her because it would make me feel better. I came because without her, it's hard to remember who I am.
Jodi Picoult
The nurses, I have already learned, are the ones who give us the answers we’re desperate for. Unlike the doctors, who fidget like they need to be somewhere else, the nurses patiently answer us as if we are the first set of parents to ever have this kind of meeting with them, instead of the thousandth.
Jodi Picoult
maybe there is more to a person than a body and a mind. maybe something else figures into the mix— not a soul, exactly, but a spirit that hints you might one day be greater, stronger than you are now. a promise a potential.
Jodi Picoult
I don't know the first thing about holding together a family, especially one that resembles an heirloom vase, shattered but glued back together for its beauty, and no one mentions that you can see the cracks as plain as day.
Jodi Picoult
The scariest thing in the world is thinking someone you love is going to die.
Jodi Picoult
How do you walk into someone's life again after twenty-eight years? How do you pick up, when you were too young to know where you left off.
Jodi Picoult
What’s the difference between spending your life trying to be invisible, or pretending to be the person you think everyone wants you to be? Either way, you’re faking.
Jodi Picoult
Pick ten strangers and stick them in a room, and ask them which of us they feel sorrier for - you or me - and we all know who they'll choose.
Jodi Picoult
To me, a good event is governed by the audience.
Jodi Picoult
There was a fine line between love and hate you heard that cliche all the time. But no one told you that the moment you crossed it would be the one you least expected. You'd fall in love and crack open a secret door to let your soul mate in. You just never expected such closeness one day to feel like an intrusion.
Jodi Picoult
The apple . . . came before Adam and Eve in the story of creation. It had to have been there at least three years because that's how long it takes for a new tree to bear fruit.
Jodi Picoult
Life sometimes gets so bogged down in the details, you forget you are living it.
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
So much of the language of love was like that: you devoured someone with your eyes, you drank in the sight of him, you swallowed him whole. Love was substance, broken down and beating through your bloodstream.
