More quotes by Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth
I get up, because I’m supposed to, but if it were up to me, I’d stay in my seat for the rest of time.
Veronica Roth
His fingers slide into my hair, and I hold on to his arms to stay steady as we press together like two blades at a stalemate. He is stronger than anyone I know, and warmer than anyone else realizes he is a secret that I have kept, and will keep for the rest of my life.
Veronica Roth
I feel like myself, strong and weak at once - allowed, at least for a little while, to be both.
Veronica Roth
He looks like a man who has spent most of his life frowning.
Veronica Roth
I suppose everything is bound to look different when you aren't on your way to die.
Veronica Roth
Peter leans forward and looks into my eyes. The serum will go into effect in one minute, he says. Be brave, Tris. My heart begins to race. Why would Peter tell me to be brave? Why would he offer any kind words at all?
Veronica Roth
I was so afraid that we would just keep colliding over and over again if we stayed together, and that eventually the impact would break me. But now I know I am like the blade and he is like the whetstone- I am too strong to break so easily, and I become better, sharper, every time I touch him.
