"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."
"Maybe Dauntless was formed with good intentions, with the right ideals and the right goals. But it has strayed far from them. And the same is true of Erudite, I realize. A long time ago, Erudite pursued knowledge and ingenuity for the sake of doing good. Now they pursue knowledge and ingenuity with greedy hearts. I wonder if the other factions suffer from the same problem. I have not thought about it before."
