I am no longer Tris, the selfless, or Tris, the brave. I suppose that now, I must become more than either.
Veronica Roth
I can't tell him I need him. I can't need him, period -- or really, we can't need each other, because who knows how long either of us will last in this war?

Veronica Roth
I don't want to try to live up to someone who's created something so incredible. I'm just trying to focus on what I'm doing and what I do best. It's sometimes hard to focus in and only think about my books rather than how they measure up to someone else's.
Veronica Roth
It's time to be with my brother now
Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth
We don't need you as an ally. We're Dauntless. -Tori
Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth
With four? Doing a little... Addition? Multiplication?
Veronica Roth
Ingenuity requires creativity.
Veronica Roth
I do know who you are. I just needed to be reminded.
Veronica Roth
