If you have a sister and she d...

If you have a sister and she dies, do you stop saying you have one? Or are you always a sister, even when the other half of the equation is gone?

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

If you gave someone your heart...

If you gave someone your heart and they died, did they take it with them? Did you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled?

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

So much of the language of lov...

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.

When you love someone you let them take care of you.

and he suddenly knew that if she killed herself, he would die. Maybe not immediately, maybe not with the same blinding rush of pain, but it would happen. You couldn't live for very long without a heart.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

You are only as invincible as ...

You are only as invincible as your smallest weakness, and those are tiny indeed - the length of a sleeping baby's eyelash, the span of a child's hand. Life turns on a dime, and - it turns out - so does one's conscience.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

Sometimes when you pick up you...

Sometimes when you pick up your child you can feel the map of your own bones beneath your hands, or smell the scent of your skin in the nape of his neck. This is the most extraordinary thing about motherhood - finding a piece of yourself separate and apart that all the same you could not live without.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

You know it's never fifty-fift...

You know it's never fifty-fifty in a marriage. It's always seventy-thirty, or sixty-forty. Someone falls in love first. Someone puts someone else up on a pedestal. Someone works very hard to keep things rolling smoothly; someone else sails along for the ride.

How could you go about choosing something that would hold the half of your heart you had to bury?

I sometimes wonder if it is just me, or if there are other women who figure out where they are supposed to be by going nowhere.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

At 17, the smallest crises too...

At 17, the smallest crises took on tremendous proportions; someone else's thoughts could take root in the loam of your own mind; having someone accept you was as vital as oxygen. Adults, light years away from this, rolled their eyes and smirked and said, 'This too shall pass' - as if adolescence was a disease like chicken pox, something everyone recalled as a milk nuisance, completely forgetting how painful it had been at the time.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

She suddenly remembered studyi...

She suddenly remembered studying the brain in science class- how a steel rod pierced a man's skull, and he opened his mouth to speak Portuguese, a language he'd never studied. Maybe it would be like this, now, for Josie. Maybe her native tongue, from here on in, would be a string of lies.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

It was so damn hard to find lo...

It was so damn hard to find love in this world, to locate someone who could make you feel that there was a reason you'd been put on this earth. A child, I imagined, was the purest form of that. A child was the love you didn't have to look for, didn't have to prove anything to, didn't have to worry about losing. Which is why, when it happened, it hurt so badly.

It's disappointing to know that someone can see right through you.

Things had a way of working out for the best when you let them run their course.

Jodi Picoult 1091 quotes

It takes two people to make a lie work: the person who tells it, and the one who believes it.

Some lessons can't be taught, they simply have to be learned.

It's choice that makes us human.

What if love wasn't the act of finding what you were missing but the give-and-take that made you both match?

The truth doesn't always set you free; people prefer to believe prettier, neatley wrapped lies
