Veronica Roth
The only reason I haven't shot you yet is because he's the one who should get to do it, I say. Stay away from him or I'll decide I no longer care.
Veronica Roth
I feel a thread tugging me again, but this time I know that it isn’t some sinister force dragging me toward death. This time I know it’s my mother's hand, drawing me into her arms. And I go gladly into her embrace.
Veronica Roth
I know I belong in Dauntless because everything I did in that aptitude test told me so. I'm loyal to my faction for that reason -- because there's nowhere else I could possibly be. But her? And you? She shakes her head. I have no idea who you're loyal to. And I'm not going to pretend like everything's okay.
Veronica Roth
