Jodi Picoult nejznámější citáty

„K tomu, aby lež fungovala, jsou potřeba dva lidé: ten, kdo ji říká, a ten, kdo jí věří.“

Jodi Picoult

„Nejvýše postavený vlk ve smečce není ten, kdo používá brutální sílu. Je to ten, kdo by ji mohl použít, ale rozhodne se to neudělat.“

Jodi Picoult

„Nevím, co ti ten člověk udělal. Vlastně si nejsem jistá, jestli to vědět chci. Ale odpuštění neděláš kvůli někomu jinému. Je to něco, co děláš kvůli sobě. Říká se, že žádný člověk není tak důležitý, aby měl nad námi moc. Říká se ale také, že není dobré se nechat uvěznit v minulosti, protože každý si zaslouží budoucnost.“

Jodi Picoult

„Nevěřím v boha.
Věřím v lidi, v jejich sílu a pomoc, kterou jsou schopni poskytnout jeden druhému, v lidi, kteří touží spolupracovat, ne se hašteřit. Věřím, že výjimečné věci vždycky překryjí ty obyčejné.
Věřím, že pokud má člověk v co doufat - i kdyby to byl jen lepší zítřek -, je to ta nejsilnější droga na této planetě.“

Jodi Picoult

„Historie nejsou jen data, místa a války. Jsou to především lidé, kteří zaplňují volný prostor mezi nimi.“

Jodi Picoult

Vypravěčka

„Existuje mnoho způsobů, jak někoho zradit.
Člověk ho může za jeho zády pomlouvat.
Může ho záměrně podvést.
Může ho vydat do rukou nepříteli, když mu dotyčný věří.
Může porušit slib.
Otázkou je, jestli když tohle všechno udělá, nezradí i sám sebe?“

Jodi Picoult citáty a výroky

„Když člověku vezmou svobodu, asi ji potom vnímá spíš jako poctu, ne jako nárok.“

Jodi Picoult

Vypravěčka

„Občas slova nejsou dost velká, aby dokázala obsáhnout všechny pocity, které se do ně člověk snaží vložit.“

Jodi Picoult

„Každý si ale čas od času myslíme, že náš žal je větší než smutek těch ostatních.“

Jodi Picoult

Vypravěčka

„Mít moc neznamená dělat hrozné věci těm, kdo jsou slabší než ty. Znamená to mít sílu něco takového udělat, ale rozhodnout se, že ne.“

Jodi Picoult

„V nebi i v pekle sedí lidé u stolu plných lahodných jídel, ale nikdo nedokáže ohnout ruce v lokti. Takže všichni v pekle hladoví, protože se nemohou najíst. V nebi jsou ale všichni syti, protože na to, aby se nakrmili navzájem, ruce ohýbat nepotřebují.“

Jodi Picoult

Vypravěčka

„Aby se člověk stal znovu lidskou bytostí, stačí někdo, kdo vás tak vnímá bez ohledu na to, jak vypadáte.“
