In Remembrance of Johnny Plotke

1966 - 2009

The moral of this story is that sometimes, you can attempt to make all the difference in the world, and it still is like trying to stem the tide with a sieve. The moral of this story is that no matter how much we try, no matter how much we want it … some stories just don’t have a happy ending.

- Jodi Picoult, "Leaving Time"
