Jennifer Weiner Quote
A lemon, said Mrs. Lefkowitz, and nodded. Huh? Think about fruit, she continued. When you squeeze an orange, what do you get? Rose smiled. Trouble? No, no, Mrs. Smart. You get orange juice. You don’t get grapefruit juice, you don’t get apple juice, you don’t get milk. You get orange juice. Every time. People are like that. They can only give you what they have inside. So if this Sydelle character is giving you so much trouble, it’s because she’s nothing but trouble on the inside. She’s just delivering what’s in her heart into the universe. And Mrs. Lefkowitz sat back, looking pleased with herself.
