More quotes by Veronica Roth
People are supossed to aspire to become their fathers, not shudder at the thought.
Veronica Roth
Noise and activity are the refuges of the bereaved and the guilty.
Veronica Roth
I'll say it one last time: Be brave.
Veronica Roth
I will be my undoing, If I become my obsession. I will forget the ones I love, If I do not serve them. I will war with others, If I refuse to see them. Therefore, I choose to turn away From my reflection, To rely not on myself But on my brothers and sisters, To project always outward Until I disappear [And only God remains.]
Veronica Roth
We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.
Veronica Roth
Everything - our houses, our clothes, our hairstyles - is meant to help us forget ourselves and to protect us from vanity, greed and envy, which are just forms of selfishness. If we have little, and want for little, and we are all equal, we envy no one.
Veronica Roth
I would rather be dead than empty
Veronica Roth
There are no safe rooms, no safe truths, no safe secrets to tell.
Veronica Roth
We are not people who touch each other carelessly every point of contact between us feels important, a rush of energy and relief.

Veronica Roth
Creemos enla valentía. Creemos en tomar acciones. Creemos en la liberarnos del miedo y en la adquisición de habilidades necesarias para obligar a que lo malos salga de nuestro mundo para que el bien pueda prosperar y florecer
Veronica Roth
The first step to loving someone else is to recognize the evil in ourselves, so we can forgive them.
Veronica Roth
He turns toward me. I want to touch him, but I’m afraid of his bareness afraid that he will make me bare too. ‘Is this scaring you, Tris?’ ‘No,’ I croak. I clear my throat. ‘Not really. I’m only…afraid of what I want.’ ‘What do you want?’ Then his face tightens. ‘Me?’ Slowly I nod.
Veronica Roth
Peace is restrained this is free.
Veronica Roth
Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.
Veronica Roth
I ignore my fear. When I make decisions, I pretend it doesn't exist.
Veronica Roth
He doesn’t scowl, but his mouth is so tense that I know he’s angry with me. 'Don’t be an idiot,' he says. 'An idiot?' Is he talking about the blanket? 'You were lying.
Veronica Roth
He leans his face close to mine and wraps his fingers around my chin. His hand smells like metal. When was the last time he held a gun, or a knife?
Veronica Roth
We've all started to put down the virtues of the other factions in the process of bolstering our own. I don't want to do that. I want to be brave, and selfless, and smart, and kind, and honest. He clears his throat. I continually struggle with kindness.
Veronica Roth
It's easy to be brave when they're not my fears.
