Image
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.

I forgot my watch. Minutes or hours later, when the panic subsides, that is what I most regret.

Reading is such a huge part of my life.

I note how calm she looks and how focused she is. She is well-practiced in the art of losing herself. I can't say the same of myself.
Veronica Roth
Image
She taught me all about real sacrifice. That it should be done from love, not misplace disgust for another person's genetics.
Veronica Roth
Image
Before I chose Dauntless...I felt assured of my long lifespan, if nothing else. Now there are no reassurances except that where I go, I go because I choose to.

Image
For someone so small, you're heavy, Stiff, he mutters.
Veronica Roth
Image
she’s not pretty, that word is too small. She is not like the girls I used to stare at, all bend and curve and softness. She is small but strong, and her bright eyes demand attention. Looking at her is like waking up.

Image
It doesn't take skill to stand in a place were no bullets find you, or to fire into the dark and hit a man you didn't see.

Image
I think they're going to force us to eat lots of cake and then take an unreasonably long nap.

Tris: Wait. So you have no idea what my aptitude is? Tori: Yes and No. My conclusion is that you display equal aptitude for Abnegation, Dauntless and Erudite. People who get this kind of result are..are called...Divergent.
