Jodi Picoult
“Explosives.
Opioids.
Nuclear weapons.
None of them could hold a candle to hope, the most dangerous commodity in the world.”
Jodi Picoult, By Any Other Name

James Baldwin
“The occurrence of an event is not the same thing as knowing what it is that one has lived through. Most people had not lived--nor could it, for that matter, be said that they had died--through any of their terrible events. They had simply been stunned by the hammer. They passed their lives thereafter in a kind of limbo of denied and unexamined pain. The great question that faced him this morning was whether or not he had ever, really, been present at his life. For if he had ever been present, then he was present still, and his world would open up before him.”
James Baldwin, Another Country

Jodi Picoult
“There once was a girl who became invisible so that her words might not be.”
Jodi Picoult, By Any Other Name

Albert Camus
“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.

And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.”
Albert Camus

Jodi Picoult
“Because a man who argues is ambitious, but a woman who argues is just a bitch.”
Jodi Picoult, By Any Other Name
