If I don't survive, I say, tell Tobias I didn't want to leave him.
Veronica Roth

Just as I have insisted on his worth, he has always insisted on my strength, insisted that my capacity is greater than I believe. And I know, without being told, that's what love does, when it's right-it makes you more than you were, more than you thought you could be. This is right.

Image
I know some things--I know that I'm not alone, that I have friends, that I'm in love. I know that I don't want to die, and for me that's something--more than I could have said a few weeks ago.

Image
Sometimes I still forget to look for the gentler parts of her. For so long all I saw was the strength, standing out like the wiry muscles in her arms or the black ink marking her collarbone with flight.

Image
You think giving you a hug would give away too much? he says. You know, I say. I really don't care. I stand on my tiptoes and press my lips to his. It is the best moment of my life.
Veronica Roth
Image
Fear, she says, is more powerful than pain.

Image
I point at a window to my left, and it explodes. Particles of glass rain over us. ‘You’ll have to do better than that,' I say.
Veronica Roth
Image
I am afraid of her, afraid of what she says-and thrilled by it too, because it means I don't have to accept that I am smaller than I once believed.
Veronica Roth
Image
Because life is not fair, Albert. And the world is conspiring against you.
Veronica Roth
Image
Why do you say vague things if you don't want to be asked about them?
Veronica Roth
Image
I'm going to stop a revolution,'' I say. I turn right, and Peter follows me.
Veronica Roth
Image
I wonder how I seem to them. They must see someone I don't see. Someone capable and strong. Someone I can't be someone I can be.

Change, like healing, takes time.
