More quotes by Veronica Roth
When I look at the Abnegation lifestyle as an outsider, I think it’s beautiful.

Veronica Roth
Looks like someone had a mood swing.” She rolls her eyes. “Like you don’t want to know what his fears are. He acts so tough that he’s probably afraid of marshmallows and really bright sunrises or something.
Veronica Roth
No selfishness or insecurity kept him from seeing the full extent of her goodness, as it so often does with the rest of us. That kind of love may only be possible in Abnegation. I do not know.

If we stay together, I'll have to forgive you over and over again, and if you're still in this, you'll have to forgive me over and over again too. So forgiveness isn't the point. What I really should have been trying to figure out is whether we were still good for each other or not

Veronica Roth

It isn't the height that scares me - the height makes me feel alive with energy, every organ and vessel and muscle in my body singing at the same pitch. 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
I think you're still the only person sharp enough to sharpen someone like me.
Veronica Roth
No one's perfect, I whisper. It doesn't work that way. One bad thing goes away, and another bad thing replaces it. I traded cowardice for cruelty I traded weakness for ferocity.
Veronica Roth
I have never been carried around by a large boy, or laughed until my stomach hurt at the dinner table, or listened to the clamor of a hundred people all talking at once. Peace is restrained this is free.
Veronica Roth
I met him while I was imprisoned, I say, and my voice sounds far away even to me. I was just curious. I wouldn't judge him too harshly, says Fernando. Jeanine can be extraordinarily persuasive to those who aren't naturally suspicious. I have always been naturally suspicious. ... Yeah, I say. So have I.
Veronica Roth
Sarcasm is always at someone's expense.
Veronica Roth
I close my eyes. I don't expect Four to reassure me, and he makes no effort to, but I feel better standing here than I did out there among the people who are my friends, my faction.
Veronica Roth
Where's Marcus, Destroyer of Lives, going to meet us?
Veronica Roth
It is amazing how pretending to be in a different faction changes everything -- even the way I walk. That must be why it's so strange that I could easily belong in three of them.
Veronica Roth
Not writing is as important as writing - go out into the world and remember how interesting it, and the people in it, are.
Veronica Roth
I brought you the truth about our city and the reason we are in it. If you aren't thanking me for it, you should at least do something about it instead of sitting here on this mess you made, pretending it's a throne!
