I try to leave some space in my mind for things to surprise me or change my mind, I think that's important.

The truth is... you are hurting me. Not on purpose, I know that. But I love you and every second that you don´t love me back...it hurts.

Maybe there's more we all could have done, but we just have to let the guilt remind us to do better next time.

Sometimes, the best way to help someone is just to be near them.

It reminds me why I chose Dauntless in the first place: not because they are perfect, but because they are alive. Because they are free.

Change, like healing, takes time.

I'm not Dauntless - I'm Divergent. I am whatever I choose to be.

Let me be clear. I applaud self love. I appreciate self value. But if you're not capable of loving another person just as much... you will never experience true love.

Honor is not in killing love. Rather, honor is in giving birth to love, in being the cupid in a love story.

To make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education.

People have obsessions and fears and passions which they don't admit to. I think every character is interesting and has extremes. It's the novelist privilege to see how odd everyone is.

Nature, always inartistic, takes pleasure in creating the impossible.

In soccer, the blindest player is the one who sees nothing but the ball.

Photography, fortunately, to me has not only been a profession but also a contact between people - to understand human nature and record, if possible, the best in each individual.

I find each project, although it's compartmentalized, informs me in some facet. I wake up everyday wanting to be informed.

Every movie is a road movie. Every novel is a mystery. Every tortilla chip is sacred.

I've been accused of being unambitious, but what I do takes up every minute. I'm executive producer, I'm a writer and the host.
