Veronica Roth
I think I speak for everyone, he says, when I say you have earned the title of Dauntless.
Veronica Roth
You know what mom told me once? She said that everyone has some evil inside them, and the first step to loving anyone is to recognize the same evil in ourselves, so we're able to forgive them.
Veronica Roth
Caleb runs up to me and folds me carefully in his arms. I breathe a sigh of relief. I thought I had gotten to the point where I didn’t need my brother anymore, but I don’t think such a point actually exists.
Veronica Roth
I am his, and he is mine, and it has been that way all along.

Veronica Roth
The person you became with her is worth being.
Veronica Roth
I traded cowardice for cruelty I traded weakness for ferocity.
Veronica Roth
When I look at the Abnegation lifestyle as an outsider, I think it’s beautiful. When I watch my family move in harmony when we go to dinner parties and everyone cleans together afterward without having to be asked when I see Caleb help strangers carry their groceries, I fall in love with this life all over again.
Veronica Roth
Take away someone’s fear, or low intelligence, or dishonesty . . . and you take away their compassion. Take away someone’s aggression and you take away their motivation, or their ability to assert themselves. Take away their selfishness and you take away their sense of self-preservation.
Veronica Roth
Hearing him talk about his mother, about his intact family, makes my chest hurt for a second, like someone pierced it with a needle.
Veronica Roth
We believe that peace is hard-won, That sometimes it is necessary to fight for peace. But more than that, we believe that Justice is more important than peace.
Veronica Roth
Looking at her is like waking up.
Veronica Roth
I feel like myself, strong and weak at once - allowed, at least for a little while, to be both.
Veronica Roth
The gun goes off. I fall.
