(p. 137) What does “sometimes you don’t have to mean to hurt someone to hurt someone?” mean? Do you think Jack remember those words when he first refuses to meet Auggie at school?
It means that sometimes you hurt people even though you didn't intend to hurt them. You can hurt people without thinking. Jack probably doesn't remember.
