He didn't want the respect of people who weren’t worth wiping his nose on—people who weren't worth the spatout gum attached to the bottom of his worn-out shoes. The only respect he wanted was from himself and the people who really mattered in his life. The people who really loved and cared about him.
Quote by -Sherrilyn Kenyon
Every time I think that it’s not worth it – that the people in it deserve the misery of their lives – I come across someone who makes me rethink that.
Quote by -Sherrilyn Kenyon
Living was okay, but it wasn't the breaths people took that measured a life. It was the moments that took those breaths away that mattered the most. And Dev did that every time he looked at her. Naked or not.
Quote by -Sherrilyn Kenyon
No, I was just wondering who you killed to reclaim your health. (Wulf) I’m sure the cows you eat aren’t exactly thrilled by their slaughter either. (Urian) They’re not people. (Wulf) In case you haven’t noticed, Dark-Hunter, there are a lot of people out there who aren’t human either. (Urian)
Quote by -Sherrilyn Kenyon
Yeah, well, your people happen to be soul-sucking demons. (Wulf) You ever met a banker or a lawyer? Tell me who’s worse, my Urian or one of them? At least we need the food; they do it just for profit margins. (Phoebe)
Quote by -Sherrilyn Kenyon
Where are my guards? (Wulf) Oh, one is right here, but he’s not feeling very talkative. Death has a way of making even the chattiest of people rather quite. As for the other…he’s…oh, wait, dead now. (Stryker)
Quote by -Sherrilyn Kenyon
Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing.
Quote by -Camille Pissarro
I want people to come away from my book with questions. Questions about virtue and goodness. Not answers.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Seeing people who are actually reading your book and listening to the wide variety of reactions they have to it, is really special.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
People make me key chains... someone attached a Dauntless symbol to a silver pen. That one is what I use to sign books. I use that a lot. I like to keep them around because they remind me that people are waiting for these books and that they really love them. It gives me motivation in those times when I'm not feeling very motivated.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
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.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
The cruelty of fate is that I must travel with the people I hate when the people I love are dead behind me.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Two things you should know about me; The first is that I am deeply suspicious of people in general. It is my nature to expect the worst of them. And the second is that I am unexpectedly good with computers.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
But Christina and I are not people who cry together; we're people who fight together. SO I hold my tears in.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I came here so that no one else would die. I came here to protect as many people as I could. And I care more about Tobias's safety than anyone else's. So why am I here, if he's here? What's the point?
Quote by -Veronica Roth
You were afraid of shooting people?" "No," I say. "I was afraid of my considerable capacity to kill." How many young men fear that there is a monster inside of them?
Quote by -Veronica Roth
But I think that no matter how smart, people usually see what they're already looking for, that's all.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
It's strange to see people you don't know well in the morning, with sleepy eyes and pillow creases in their cheeks
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Dead people can be our heroes because they can't disappoint us later; they only improve over time, as we forget more and more about them.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
That's the first time I've ever said those words out loud, and now I hear how strange they are. How many young men fear that there is a monster instead them? People are supposed to fear others, not themselves.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
And now that you are out? How does the world seem to you?" he says. "Mostly the same," I say. "People are just divided by different things, fighting different wars.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Yes," Marcus says. "I understand that you are concerned -- that you all are concerned. You had never heard of the Divergent a week ago, and now all that you know is that they are immune to something to which you are susceptible, and that is a frightening thing. But I can assure you that there is nothing to be afraid of, as far as we are concerned." As he speaks, his head tilts and his eyebrows lift in sympathy, and I understand at once why some people like him. He makes you feel that if you just placed everything in his hands, he would take care of it.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I close my eyes. I don't expect Four to reassure me, and he makes no effort to, but I feel better standing here than I did out there among the people who are my friends, my faction.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Some people believe that I will go nowhere, and maybe they're right, but maybe they're not.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Few people who are born into Abnegation choose to leave it. When they do, we remember.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Not writing is as important as writing - go out into the world and remember how interesting it, and the people in it, are.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Abnegation produces deeply serious people. People who automatically see things like need,” he says. “I’ve noticed that when people switch to Dauntless, it creates some of the same types. Erudite who switch to Dauntless tend to turn cruel and brutal. Candor who switch to Dauntless tend to become boisterous, fight-picking adrenaline junkies. And Abnegation who switch to Dauntless become . . . I don’t know, soldiers, I guess. Revolutionaries.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Sometimes,” he says, sliding his arm across my shoulders, “people just want to be happy, even if it’s not real.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I tell myself, as sternly as possible, that is how things work here. We do dangerous things and people die. People die, and we move on to the next dangerous thing. The sooner that lesson sinks in, the better chance I have at surviving initiation.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I do like to hit people-I like the explosion of power and energy, and the feeling that I am untouchable because I can hurt people. But I hate that part of myself, because it is the part of me that is the most broken
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I settle into their pace. The uniform pounding of feet in my ears and the homogeneity of the people around me makes me believe that I could choose this. I could be subsumed into Abnegation’s hive mind, projecting always outward.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
My problem might be that even if I did go home, I wouldn’t belong there, among people who give without thinking and care without trying.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I get the strange urge to hit my head against the wall. Other people's sobs make me feel uncomfortable.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
You know what Abnegation used to say about pride?' 'Something unfavorable,I assume.' I laugh.' Obviously. They said it blinds people to the truth of what they are.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I don’t know what world you live in, but in mine, people only do things for you for one of two reasons. The first is if they want something in return. And the second is if they feel like they owe you something.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
People are supossed to aspire to become their fathers, not shudder at the thought.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
We don't know what's happened out there since they put us in here, or how many generations have lived and died since they did.We could be the last people left.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I belong to the people I love, and they belong to me--they, and the love and loyaty I give them, form my identity far more than any word or group ever could.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I never used to understand why people bothered to hold hands as they walked, but then he runs one of his fingertips down my palm, and I shiver and understand it completely
Quote by -Veronica Roth
The division is based on knowledge, based on qualifications - but as I learned from the factionless, a system that relies on a group of uneducated people to do its dirty work without giving them a way to rise is hardly fair.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
I used to think that when people fell in love, they just landed where they landed, and they had no choice in the matter afterward. And maybe that's true of beginnings, but it's not true of this, now.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Sometimes, all it takes to save people from a terrible fate is one person willing to do something about it. Even if that "something" is a fake bathroom break.
Quote by -Veronica Roth
Is this Prior?" "In the flesh." "Why's he bleeding?" "Because he's an idiot." Zeke offers me a black jacket with a factionless symbol stitched into the collar. "I didn't know that idiocy caused people to just start spontaneously bleeding from the nose." I wrap the jacket around Caleb's shoulders and fasten one of the buttons over his chest. He avoids my eyes. "I think it's a new phenomenon.", I say.
