I don't know what I was think...

I don't know what I was thinking, coming out here. There are no silver bullets in life, there's just the long, messy climb out of the pit you've dug youself.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

Life could take on any number...

Life could take on any number of shapes while you were busy fighting your own demons. But if you were changing at the same rate as the person beside you, nothing else really mattered. You became each other's constant.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

Listen, I would say, this is ...

Listen, I would say, this is not how I thought our lives would go; and may be we cannot find our way out of this alley. But there is no one I'd rather be lost with.

How many times would I throw ...

How many times would I throw this away before I realized it was what I had been looking for all along?

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

I realized it was like lookin...

I realized it was like looking into the sun—you shouldn't do it, because you'd turn your face away and be blind to everything else.

the relationship between people knot so easily, there needs to be a person skilled at working free the threads. Sometimes, though, the only way to extricate a tangle is to cut it out and start fresh.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

Summertime, I think, is a col...

Summertime, I think, is a collective unconscious. We all remember the notes that made up the song of the ice cream man; we all know what it feels like to brand our thighs on a playground slide that's heated up like a knife in a fire; we all have lain on our backs with our eyes closed and our hearts beating across the surface of our lids, hoping that this day will stretch just a little longer than the last one, when in fact it's all going in the other direction.

You know, the mind is a remarkable thing. Just because you can't see the wound doesn't mean it isn't hurting. It scars all the time, but it heals.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

And that was the greatest hea...

And that was the greatest heartbreak of all- no matter how spectacular we want our children to be, no matter how perfect we pretend they are, they are bound to disappoint. As it turns out, kids are more like us than we think: damaged, through and through.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

We sit for a few more moments...

We sit for a few more moments, although there's really nothing left to say. This is new to me, too, an entire conversation that takes place in silence, because the heart has its own language. I will remember what Eric says even though he doesn't say a word. I will tell it to her.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

The bottom line in both cases...

The bottom line in both cases is that people don't change; that no matter how charming you are and how fiercely you love, you cannot turn a person into something she's not.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

Knowledge was power, but a go...

Knowledge was power, but a good librarian did not hoard the gift. She taught others how to find, where to look, how to see.

As it turns out, you can function while your heart is being torn to shreds.

I used to think I'd be just like them when I grew up, but I am not. And the thing is, somewhere along the way, I stopped wanting to be like them, anyway.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

I imagined what it would be like to hold a butterfly in your hands something bejeweled and treasured and to know that despite your devotion it was dying by degrees.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

Those eyes, they've got a his...

Those eyes, they've got a history with mine. They were the first things I saw when I came to, after being hit in the skull with a baseball thrown by Patrick at Little League. They were the fortification I needed at sixteen to ride the chairlift at Sugarloaf, although I am terrified of heights. For almost my whole life, they've told me I'm doing all right, during moments when it was not in my own power to answer.

What you notice is the loneliness. Daniel started to isolate himself, because it hurt less than being pushed away.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

You get through it, you just ...

You get through it, you just never get over it

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

No one ever asks a kid for her opinion, but it seems to me that growing up means you stop hoping for the best, and start expecting the worst.

never trust a man who wears a pinkie ring. . . the only jewelry a guy should wear is a wedding band or a super bowl ring
