More quotes by Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult
You can stay up all night and still not count all the ways to lose the people you love.
Jodi Picoult

I think that different things sell in different countries.
Jodi Picoult
I don't understand why people never say what they mean. It's like the immigrants who come to a country and learn the language but are completely baffled by idioms. (Seriously, how could anyone who isn't a native English speaker 'get the picture,' so to speak, and not assume it has something to do with a photo or a painting?)
Jodi Picoult
...when they look at me, I so badly want to be who they see.
Jodi Picoult
