“He's like a bad penny, isn't he?”
“He isn't so bad.""You're not fake-married to him.”
“He had a problem, like any other problem. The problem just hadn't been well posed. The problem was: Should he leave Penny or not?”
“My feeling is, quite simply, that if there is a God, He has done such a bad jobthat he isn't worth discussing.”
“He who jumps for the moon and gets it not leaps higher than he who stoops for a penny in the mud.”
“Who is he when he isn't Dauntless, isn't an instructor, isn't Four, isn't anything in particular?Whoever he is, I like him. It's easier to admit that to myself now, in the dark, after all that just happened. He is not sweet or gentle or particularly kind. But he is smart and brave, and even though he saved me, he treated me like I was strong. That is all I need to know.”
