Veronica Roth
I feel like someone breathed new air into my lungs. I am not Abnegation. I am not Dauntless. I am Divergent.
Veronica Roth
I wonder if fears ever really go away, or if they just lose their power over us.
Veronica Roth
Trust me when I tell you, Eaton boy, that resisting is worth doing.
Veronica Roth
Because there might come a day when there is no flashlight, there is no gun, there is no guiding hand. And I want to be ready for it. (divergent pg.138)
Veronica Roth
Sometimes, the best way to help someone is just to be near them.
Veronica Roth
The truth is... you are hurting me. Not on purpose, I know that. But I love you and every second that you don´t love me back...it hurts.
Veronica Roth
Fighting for survival in a shattered world... the truth is her only hope.
Veronica Roth
I am his, and he is mine, and it has been that way all along.
Veronica Roth
