“It's easy to be brave when they're not my fears.”

“Dauntless: being brave in the midst of fear.”

“feel Tobias brushing my hair back before the first simulation. I hear him telling me to be brave. I hear my mother telling me to be brave(...) I am brave.”

“I have your back. I didn't mean only when it's easy. All the time.”

“Eric called Al's suicide brave, and he was wrong. My mother's death was brave. I remember how calm she was, how determined. It isn't just brave that she died for me; it is brave that she did it without announcing it, without hesitation, and without appearing to consider another option.”

“Sometimes it isn't fighting that's brave, its facing the death you know is coming.”

“I ignore my fear. When I make decisions, I pretend it doesn't exist.”
