Veronica Roth
I’d rather eat out of a can than be strangled by a faction.
Veronica Roth
Where's Marcus, Destroyer of Lives, going to meet us?
Veronica Roth
I do trust you, is what I want to say. But it isn't true -- I didn't trust him to love me despite the terrible things I had done. I don't trust anyone to do that, but that isn't his problem it's mine.
Veronica Roth
Arrogance is one of the flaws in the Erudite heart -- I know. It is often in mine.
Veronica Roth
