    “I'm in love with you," he said quietly.

    "Augustus," I said.

    "I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling.

I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”

    'What'd you do?'
    I sighed loudly. 'I was thirteen,' I said.
    'Not Disney,' he said.
    I said nothing.
    'You did not go to Disney World.'
    I said nothing.
    'HAZEL GRACE!' he shouted. 'You did not use your one dying Wish to go to Disney World with your parents.'
    'Also Epcot Center,' I mumbled.

    “Somewhere inside me is a merciful, forgiving person. Somewhere there is a girl who tries to understand what people are going through, who accepts that people do evil things and that desperation leads them to darker places than they ever imagined. I swear she exists, and she hurts for the repentant boy I see in front of me.

    But if I saw her, I wouldn't recognize her.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent
