If someone offer you an opportunity to get closer to your enemy, you always take it.
Veronica Roth
No. Because it's so stupid no Dauntless with any sense would speak it, let alone think it. Pansycake. What are you, twelve? And a half, he says.
Veronica Roth
I shift from one foot to the other, trying to get a good look at him. When I finally do, I look away. His eyes were already on me, probably drawn by my nervous movement.
Veronica Roth
