Jodi Picoult Frases famosas

“Sempre dizem que quando você ama alguém, nada mais no mundo importa. Mas não é verdade, não é? Você sabe e eu sei, que quando você ama alguém, tudo no mundo importa um pouco mais.”

Jodi Picoult

The Tenth Circle

“Em dezanove minutos podemos cortar a relva do jardim, pintar o cabelo, assistir a um terço de um jogo de hóquei. Em dezanove minutos podemos fazer scones ou arranjar um dente no dentista; podemos dobrar a roupa de uma família de cinco pessoas… Em dezanove minutos podemos parar o mundo, ou podemos simplesmente saltar para fora dele. Em dezanove minutos podemos vingar-nos.”

Jodi Picoult

Change of Heart

“Há um preço para tudo. Podemos ter uma bebé linda, mas ficamos a saber que tem uma incapacidade. Movemos céus e terra para fazer essa criança mais feliz, mas deixamos o nosso marido e a nossa filha tristes. Não há nenhuma balança cósmica onde possamos pesar os nossos actos; aprendemos demasiado tarde quais as escolhas que estragam o equilíbrio frágil.”

Jodi Picoult
