God Quote by Jodi Picoult — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Just because it's fiction doesn't mean it's any less true.”

“What would you do if you only had one day left in this world? Spend it with the people you love? Travel to the far corners of the earth to see as many wonders as possible? Eat nothing but chocolate? Would you apologize for all your mistakes? Would you stand up to those you'd never had the courage to face? Would you tell your secret crush that you loved him or her? Why is it that we wait till the last minute to do the things we should be doing all along?”

“No, honestly, my mouth shouldn't be able to function unless my brain's engaged.”

“Sometimes it made her want to put her fist through glass; other times, it made her cry a river.”

“Losing Chloe had been like reading a wonderfulook only to realize that all the pages past a certain point were blank.”

“But memory is like plaster: peel it back and you just might find a completely different picture.”

“If I can put one touch of rosy sunset into the life of any man or woman, I shall feel that I have worked with God.”

“I don’t want to be an anti, against anybody. I simply want to be the builder of a great affirmation: the affirmation of God,who loves us and who wants to save us.”

“Let us be today’s Christians. Let us not take fright at the boldness of today’s church. With Christ’s light let us illuminate even the most hideous caverns of the human person: torture, jail, plunder, want, chronic illness. The oppressed must be saved, not with a revolutionary salvation, in mere human fashion, but with the holy revolution of the Son of Man, who dies on the cross to cleanse God’s image, which is soiled in today’s humanity, a humanity so enslaved, so selfish, so sinful.”

“[...]it is necessary for a man to know and believe every moment that there is somewhere a perfect and peaceful happiness, for everyone and for everything … The whole law of human existence consists in nothing other than a man’s always being able to bow before the immeasurably great. If people are deprived of the immeasurably great, they will not live and will die in despair. The immeasurable and infinite is as necessary for man as the small planet he inhabits.”

“We are—all of us—the agents of God, bringing order to a universe that favors entropy. Our souls are borrowed from Him; our will is ultimately His will, but it has been divided into countless fragments and is executed from countless perspectives.”
