Jodi Picoult Quotes About Disappointment

Quotes about: Disappointment

• It was one thing to make a mistake; it was another thing to keep making it.

Either that, or you'd confide in them and you added to their problems. All you ever really had was yourself, and that sort of sucked if you were less than reliable.
