“I have something I need to tell you," he says. I run my fingers along the tendons in his hands and look back at him. "I might be in love with you." He smiles a little. "I'm waiting until I'm sure to tell you, though."
"That's sensible of you," I say, smiling too. "We should find some paper so you can make a list or a chart or something."
I feel his laughter against my side, his nose sliding along my jaw, his lips pressing my ear.
"Maybe I'm already sure," he says, "and I just don't want to frighten you."
I laugh a little. "Then you should know better."
"Fine," he says. "Then I love you.”
― Veronica Roth, Divergent

Even I didn't jump first.
Her eyes were so stern, so insistent.
Beautiful.”

“La timidez es un lazo que envuelve nuestras alas con fuerza. Sólo volarás lejos si lo deshaces. No renuncies a las cosas sólo porque podrías arrepentirte de algo. A veces basta con alargar la mano para coger lo que tienes delante. Cualquier persona podría dar un paso más largo que el tuyo y entonces ya no podrías volver atrás. Despliega tus alas, pajarillo, y vuela.”
― Elisa S. Amore, Touched
