More quotes by Veronica Roth
He stares at me, and I don't look away. He isn't a dog, but the same rules apply. Looking away is submissive. Looking him in the eye is a challenge. It's my choice.
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

Veronica Roth
I'll be your family now, he says.
Veronica Roth
Then I realize what it is. It's him. Something about him makes me feel like I am about to fall. Or turn to liquid. Or burst into flames.
Veronica Roth
Four! I call out. Why am I calling a number? Oh yes. Because that's his name. — Tris.
Veronica Roth
I expect to weave through the crowd, dodging elbows and muttering excuse me the way I always do, but there is no need. Becoming Dauntless has made me noticable.
Veronica Roth
I've done without doing things, like sleeping and eating, but I need to write.
Veronica Roth
I laugh, and it's laughter, not light, that casts out the darkness building within me, that reminds me I am still alive, even in this strange place where everything I've ever known is coming apart.
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
Aren’t you going to ask me if I’m all right?” I say. “No, I’m pretty sure you’re not all right.” He shakes his head. “I’m going to ask you not to make any decisions until we’ve talked about it.
