You are the thing that used to be normal, but that was so long... Jodi Picoult

Things break all the time. Day breaks, waves break, voices break. Promises break. Hearts break. Jodi Picoult
Sometimes I think the human heart is just a simple shelf. There's only so much you can pile onto it before something falls off an edge and you are left to pick up the pieces. Jodi Picoult
