- My instructors in science and technology have taught us about how the brain works. It's full of electrical impulses. It's like a computer. If you stimulate one part of the brain with an electrode, it... - They know nothing.
Lois Lowry

More quotes by Lois Lowry
Memory is the happiness of being alone.
Lois Lowry
I think 'The Giver' is such a moral book, so filled with important truths, that I couldn't believe anyone would want to suppress it, to keep it from kids.
Lois Lowry
It is very risky. But each time a child opens a book, he pushes open the gate that separates him from Elsewhere.
Lois Lowry
Ellen had said that her mother was afraid of the ocean, that it was too cold and too big. The sky was, too, thought Annemarie. The whole world was: too cold, too big. And too cruel.
Lois Lowry
I believe without a single shadow of a doubt that it is necessary for young people to learn to make choices. Learning to make right choices is the only way they will survive in an increasingly frightening world.
Lois Lowry
I often compare myself as a kid to my own grandchildren, who are around 11 and 14 now. That's the age kids usually read my book. And I remember myself, we'd gone through a world war. My father was an army officer so I was aware of what was going on. But I wasn't bombarded with images of catastrophe like many kids are today.
Lois Lowry
The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. It's the loneliness of it. Memories need to be shared.
Lois Lowry
-a whole world can lie before someone, if love is there when one wakes.
Lois Lowry
If you were to be lost in the river, Jonas, your memories would not be lost with you. Memories are forever.
Lois Lowry
There will always be a place for bunnies to talk in rhyme, but that's not what I do.
Lois Lowry
It's hard to give up the being together with someone.
Lois Lowry
You eat canned tuna fish and you absorb protein. Then, if you're lucky, someone give you Dover Sole and you experience nourishment. It's the same with books.
Lois Lowry
Once she read a book but found it distasteful because it contained adjectives.
Lois Lowry
Gabe? The newchild stirred slightly in his sleep. Jonas looked over at him. There could be love, Jonas whispered.
Lois Lowry
Writing is self employment, so you can make your own schedule.
Lois Lowry
I see all of them. All the colors.
Lois Lowry
I make up the characters in my books, but of course my consciousness is filled with every child I've ever known, including my two grandchildren, my own kids (I had four) and especially myself as a child, because that person still lives inside me, too.
Lois Lowry
I don't read young adult or children's books, now that my grandchildren are beyond the age of my reading to them. I read reviews, and so I'm aware of what's out there. But I tend not to read the books.
Lois Lowry
Today is declared an unscheduled holiday.
Lois Lowry
You will be faced, now, with pain of a magnitude that none of us here can comprehend because it is beyond our experience. The Receiver himself was not able to describe it, only to remind us that you would be faced with it, that you would need immense courage.
Lois Lowry
