You are far less likely to soil your pants and cry for your mother if you’re prepared to defend yourself.
Veronica Roth
Yes, she says, her eyes bright with tears. My dear child, you've done so well.
Veronica Roth
It's what you deserve to hear, I say firmly, my eyes going cloudy with tears. That you're whole, that you're worth loving, that you're the best person I've ever known.
Veronica Roth
I have your back. I didn't mean only when it's easy. All the time.
Veronica Roth
From one tyrant to another. That is the world we know, now
Veronica Roth
God Tris, are you even human?
Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth
Blood is a strange color. It's darker than you expect it to be.
Veronica Roth
Sometimes pain is for the greater good.
Veronica Roth
She taught me all about real sacrifice. That it should be done from love... That it should be done from necessity, not without exhausting all other options. That it should be done for people who need your strength because they don't have enough of their own.
Veronica Roth
It happened. It was awful. You aren't perfect. That's all there is. Don't confuse your grief with guilt.
Veronica Roth
Or maybe we'll make a home somewhere inside ourselves, to carry with us wherever we go- which is the way I carry my mother now.
Veronica Roth
It's strange how time can make a place shrink, make its strangeness ordinary.
Veronica Roth
The only reason I haven't shot you yet is because he's the one who should get to do it, I say. Stay away from him or I'll decide I no longer care.
Veronica Roth
I ignore my fear. When I make decisions, I pretend it doesn't exist.
