More quotes by Veronica Roth
Seeing people who are actually reading your book and listening to the wide variety of reactions they have to it, is really special.
Veronica Roth
I don't believe it is more important to move forward than to know the truth.
Veronica Roth
He touches my face, covering my cheeks with his hands, sliding his fingertips down my neck, fitting his fingers to the slight curve of my hips. I can't stop.
Veronica Roth
I pause a second. He doesn't look at me the way Will, Christina, and Al sometimes do - like I am too small and too weak to be of any use, and they pity me for it.
Veronica Roth
His eyes search the crowd until they find my face. My heartbeat lives in my throat lives in my cheeks. I still don't understand, he says softly, how she knew that it would work.
Veronica Roth
Scrubbing the floor when no one else wanted to was something that my mother would have done. If I can't be with her, the least I can do is act like her sometimes.
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
All I can do is stand still- I feel like if I just stand still, I can stop it from being true, I can pretend that everything is all right.
Veronica Roth
Sorry, am I being rude? she asks. I'm used to saying whatever is on my mind. Mom used to say that politeness is deception in pretty packaging
Veronica Roth
Just do what you're supposed to.
Veronica Roth
It's then that I realize: Of course Tris would go into the Weapons Lab instead of Caleb. Of course she would.
Veronica Roth
Nothing else is alright. But we are. -Tobias
Veronica Roth
She has been to the compound before. She remembered this hallway. She knows about the initiation process. My mother was Dauntless.
Veronica Roth
I glance at Tris. She grins at me, then leans in to whisper something to Christina. Are you here to help or what, Stiff? I say.
Veronica Roth
You're more than Dauntless, he says in a low voice. But if you want to be just like them, hurling yourself into ridiculous situations for no reason and retaliating against your enemies without any regard for what's ethical, go right ahead. I thought you were better than that, but maybe I was wrong.
Veronica Roth
There are no safe rooms, no safe truths, no safe secrets to tell.
Veronica Roth
I feel like someone is pressing me into a mold that does not fit my body, forcing me intothe wrong shape.
Veronica Roth
She wanted us to have more than five choices. Now we have none.
Veronica Roth
Ignore them. They don't know what it is to make a difficult decision. You wouldn't have done it, I bet. That is only because I have been taught to be cautious when I don't know all the information, and you have been taught that risks can produce great rewards.
Veronica Roth
I only came for Cake -Tobias Eaton, Divergent
