More quotes by Veronica Roth
We can’t survive alone, but even if we could, we wouldn't want to.
Veronica Roth
I am wearing a gray shirt, blue jeans, black shoes--new clothes, but beneath them, my Dauntless tattoos. It is impossible to erase my choices. Especially these.
Veronica Roth
What's worse: to be idle while someone dies, or to be exiled and empty-handed?
Veronica Roth
I also wanted to ask you if we can talk to the Erudite you're keeping safe here, I say. I know they're hidden, but I need access to them. And what do you intend to do? she says. Shoot them, I say, rolling my eyes. That isn't funny.
Veronica Roth
I traded cowardice for cruelty I traded weakness for ferocity.
Veronica Roth
Looking at her is like waking up.
Veronica Roth
Humans can't tolerate emptiness for long.
Veronica Roth
And I'm the kind of person who does not let inconsequential things like boys and near death experiences stop her.
Veronica Roth
My mother told me once that we can't survive alone, but even if we could, we wouldn't want to. Without a faction we have no purpose and no reason to live.
Veronica Roth
No selfishness or insecurity kept him from seeing the full extent of her goodness, as it so often does with the rest of us. That kind of love may only be possible in Abnegation. I do not know.
Veronica Roth
What makes you different, makes you dangerous.
Veronica Roth
I'm sick of doing bad things and liking it and then wondering what's wrong with me. I want it to be over. I want to start again.
Veronica Roth
You sadistic pansycake.
Veronica Roth
I'm a fairly religious person, so I believe in some things that sound a little crazy I'm sure, depending on where you're standing. I believe in leaving room for things that you can't explain in the universe, and you don't have to be religious to leave room for those things.
Veronica Roth
What did you do? I scream. You die, I die too.
Veronica Roth
Since I was young, I have always known this: Life damages us, every one. We can’t escape that damage. But now, I am also learning this: We can be mended. We mend each other.
Veronica Roth
Insurgent, he says. Noun. A person who acts in opposition to the established authority, who is not necessarily regarded as a belligerent.
Veronica Roth
I think about pressing myself against him, but I can't, because all our secrets would keep a space between us.
Veronica Roth
I came here so that no one else would die. I came here to protect as many people as I could. And I care more about Tobias's safety than anyone else's. So why am I here, if he's here? What's the point?
Veronica Roth
It seems like the rebellions never stop, in the city, in the compound, anywhere. There are just breaths between them, and foolishly, we call those breaths “peace.
