Veronica Roth
- My First Instinct - Tobias - Allegiant
You think my first instinct is to protect you because you are small, or a girl, or a stiff. But you are wrong. My first instinct is to push you until you break just to see how hard I have to press... But I resist it, because fear doesn't shut you down, it wakes you up. I've seen it. It's fascinating.

- Pretty - Four - Allegiant
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.

- One More - Four from Allegiant.
But when I do I feel all the strength go out of me, and I fall to my knees beside the table, and I think I cry, then, or at least I want to. And everything inside me screams for one more hug, one more word, one more glance, one more.
