Jodi Picoult Quotes
Everyone Would Remember Peter For Nineteen Minutes Of His Life, But What About The Other Nine Million? Lacy Would Be The Keeper Of Those, Because It Was The Only Way For That Part Of Peter To Stay Alive. For Every Recollection Of Him That Involved A Bullet Or A Scream, She Would Have A Hundred Others: Of A Little Boy Splashing In A Pond, Or Riding A Bicycle For The First Time, Or Waving From The Top Of A Jungle Gym. Of A Kiss Good Night, Or A Crayoned Mother's Day Card, Or A Voice Off-key In The Shower. She Would String Them Together - The Moments When Her Child Had Been Just Like Other People's. She Would Wear Them, Precious Pearls, Every Day Of Her Life; Because If She Lost Them, Then The Boy She Had Loved And Raised And Known Would Really Be Gone.
