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

Não há nenhuma balança cósmica onde possamos pesar os nossos actos; aprendemos demasiado tarde quais as escolhas que estragam o equilíbrio frágil.”

Jodi Picoult
