More quotes by Veronica Roth
All that land is filled with people, every one of them different, and the things they do to each other matter.
Veronica Roth
She must love me, to worry about me. She must still be capable of love.
Veronica Roth
I know I belong in Dauntless because everything I did in that aptitude test told me so. I'm loyal to my faction for that reason -- because there's nowhere else I could possibly be. But her? And you? She shakes her head. I have no idea who you're loyal to. And I'm not going to pretend like everything's okay.
Veronica Roth
I did not know that my entire personality, my entire being, could be discarded as the byproduct of my anatomy. What if I really am just someone with a large prefrontal cortex...and nothing more?
Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth

Nothing else is alright. But we are. -Tobias
Veronica Roth
He stares at me, and I don't look away. He isn't a dog, but the same rules apply. Looking away is submissive. Looking him in the eye is a challenge. It's my choice.
Veronica Roth
You don't have to tell me everything right away, but I have to tell you everything right away? Can't you see how stupid that is?
Veronica Roth
I am a naturally curious person. -Tris
Veronica Roth
I am fed up. I am fed up with tears and weakness. But there isn't much I can do to stop them.
Veronica Roth
No factions? A world in which no one knows who they are or where they fit? I can't even fathom it. I imagine only chaos and isolation.
Veronica Roth
We don't know what's happened out there since they put us in here, or how many generations have lived and died since they did.We could be the last people left.
Veronica Roth
I reach out and take his hand. His fingers slide between mine. I can't breathe.
Veronica Roth
He pulls me over the railing and against his chest, gathering me into his arms, easing an arm under my knees. I press my face into his shoulder, and there is a sudden, hollow silence.
Veronica Roth
That’s one way of looking at it. I prefer to look at it another way—which is that if they are persistent enough, even tiny drops of water, over time, can change the rock forever. And it will never change back.
