Veronica Roth
It’s not a perfect situation. But when you have to choose between two bad options, you pick the one that saves the people you love and believe in most. You just do. Okay?
Veronica Roth
Inquisitiveness is self-serving, Johanna. -Marcus Eaton
Veronica Roth
What good is a prepared body if you have a scattered mind?
Veronica Roth
I have something to tell you, he says. I run my fingers along the tendons in his hand and look back at him. I might be in love with you. He smiles a little. I’m waiting until I’m sure to tell you, though.
Veronica Roth
I would be shocked by the lack of security if we were not at Amity headquarters. They often straddle the line between trust and stupidity.
Veronica Roth
Tris, Tobias says, crouching next to me. His face is pale, almost yellow. There is too much I want to say. The first thing that comes out is, Beatrice. He laughs weakly. Beatrice, he amends, and touches his lips to mine. I curl my fingers into his shirt.
Veronica Roth
