“You’ve changed me forever. And I’ll never forget you.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“...I want it to be as easy as breathing for you to say yes.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“We know you're strong, but accepting help is its own kind of strength.”
― Kiera Cass, Happily Ever After

“If me dying meant you living, how could that be anything but good?”

“What are these?" Maxon asked, brushing across the tips of my fingers as we walked.
"Calluses. They're from pressing down on violin strings four hours a day."
"I've never noticed them before."
"Do they bother you?" I was the lowest caste of the six girls left, and I doubted any of them had hands like mine.
Maxon stopped moving and lifted my fingers to his lips, kissing the tiny, worn tips.
"On the contrary. I find them rather beautiful." I felt myself blush. "I've seen the world – admittedly mostly through bulletproof glass or from the tower of some ancient castle – but I've seen it. And I have access to the answers of a thousand questions at my disposal. But this small hand here?" He looked deeply into my eyes. "This hand makes sounds incomparable to anything I've ever heard. Sometimes I think I only dreamed that I heard you play the violin, it was so beautiful. These calluses are proof that it was real.”

“I do intend on giving you things, but that's not what I mean. I'm going to love you more that any man has ever loved a woman, more than you ever dreamed you could be loved. I promise you that.”
― Kiera Cass, The One

“I always wondered if they’d change you.”
― Kiera Cass, The One

“I know there was a time, when our country was new, when the assignment of these numbers helped organize something that was on the brink of not existing. But we are no longer that country. We are so much more now.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“Don't tug your ear with anyone else. That's mine.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“Thank you,â€� he whispered. “At least I can know for certain that, for one brief moment of our time together, you and I felt the same thing.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“Break my heart for what breaks yours. Everything I am for you kingdom's cause, as I walk from nothing to eternity.”
― Kiera Cass

“You were my pick. My only pick.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“It turns out I'm terrible at staying away from you. It's a very serious problem."
I smiled. "Have you really tried?"
He pretended to think about it. "Well, no. And don't expect me to start." -America and Maxon”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“I smiled to myself, thinking of America, measuring her against the other girls. She was pretty, if a bit rough on the edges. It was an uncommon type of beauty, and I could tell she wasn't aware of it.”
― Kiera Cass, The Selection Stories: The Prince & The Guard

“It was dark, so I couldn't make out much of her face, but she had brilliant red hair, like honey and roses and the sun altogether.”
― Kiera Cass, The Selection Stories: The Prince & The Guard

“Hey I'm sorry about the other day. Didn't mean to give you a hard time, I ---"

He held up his hands. "It's no problem. And I didn't mean to be pushy. But i've seen a lot of people let the bad around them make them hard or stubborn. In the end, they miss the chance to make their world bette because they only see the worst in it."

There was still something about the tone of his voice and his features that made me feel like I knew him.

"I know what you mean." I shook my head. "I don't want to be like that. But I get so angry. Sometimes I feel like I know too much, or that I've done things I can't make right, and it just hovers over me. And when I see things happen that shouldn't..."

"You don't know what to do with yourself."

"Exactly."

He nodded. "Well, I'd start by thinking about what's good. Then I'd ask myself how I could make that good even better."

I laughed. "That doesn't make sense."

He stood. "You just think about it a little.”

“Estar enamorado es lo más maravilloso y lo más terrible que te puede suceder. Sabes que has encontrado algo sorprendente, y quieres que te dure toda la vida; y a partir de entonces, te pasas cada segundo temiendo el momento en que puedas llegar a perderlo.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“Spezzami il cuore. Spezzamelo mille volte, se vuoi. È sempre stato tuo perché ne facessi ciò che volevi.”
― Kiera Cass

“Don’t tug your ear with anyone else. That’s mine.â€� “A lot of things are yours, America.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“He’s trying so hard to catch you, and every time he gets close you push him away. Why do you do that?”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“It's you," I said. "I don't want to leave you."
"Me?"
I nodded.
"You want me?"
I giggled at his bewildered expression.
"That's what I'm saying."
He paused a moment. "How- But- What did I do?"
"I don't know." I said with a shrug.
"I just think that we'd be a good us."
He smiled slowly. "We'd be a wonderful us.”

“Maxon, that's not going to happen," I whispered into his neck. "If anything, you're going to realize I'm not good enough."
His lips were at my ear. "Darling, you're perfect.”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“And maybe this is silly, but it's my country. I get that it's broken, but that doesn't mean these anarchists can just come and take it. It's still mine. Does that sound crazy?”
― Kiera Cass, The Elite

“No one trusts politicians, and why would they? Wallis has been making empty promises for years in the hopes that one of them might come through, and there isn't a chance in hell any of them could. I, on the other hand, offer the ideaof more. No guarantees, merely that faint glimmer of optimism that change might come. It doesn't even matter at this point what the change might be. They're so desperate.they don't care. They don't even think to ask.
Perhaps the key is staying calm while others panic.”

“I had missed thesekisses, so quiet, so sure. I knew that, in my whole life, if I married Aspen or someone else, no one would ever make me feel this way. It wasn't like I made his world better. It was like I was his world. It wasn't some explosion; it wasn't fireworks. It was a fire, burning slowly from the inside out.”
