“Someone real," I hear myself saying. "Someone who never has to pretend, and who I never have to pretend around. Someone who's smart, but knows how to laugh at himself. Someone who would listen to a symphony and start to cry, because he understands music can be too big for words. Someone who knows me better than I know myself. Someone I want to talk to first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Someone I feel like I've known my whole life, even if I haven't.”
― Jodi Picoult, Sing You Home

“All any of us wanted, really, was to know that we counted. That someone else's life would not have been as rich without us here.”

“There were lies we told to save ourselves, and then there were lies we told to rescue others. What counted more, the mistruth, or the greater good?”
― Jodi Picoult, Handle with Care

“Maybe you had to leave in order to really miss a place; maybe you had to travel to figure out how beloved your starting point was.”
