19.
All around me the Amity sit in silence, some with their eyes closed, some with their lips mouthing words I can’t hear, some staring at a point far away

“So I take it Amity wasn’t one of the factions you had an aptitude for,” he says, grinning
21.
They wear Amity clothes, like me, but also like me, it’s obvious what faction they are really in
22.
They are silent, but not somber—they smile at the Amity they pass, inclining their heads, a few of them stopping to exchange pleasantries
23.
“In their enthusiasm for conflict resolution, the Amity have apparently forgotten that meddling creates more conflict,” says Tobias
24.
A few of the Amity at the table next to ours stop talking to stare
25.
I sleep in a long T-shirt one of the Amity lent me
26.
One of the Amity grabs me by the arms and half lifts, half pulls me away from Peter

28.
The Amity man with his hand on my arm starts to pull me down the hallway

36.
“And Amity kids would be causing a ruckus
37.
The woman touches one Abnegation child on the shoulder and whispers something to him, and a few seconds later a small group of children run down the hallway, dodging Amity feet and yelling, “I touched you! You’re it!” “No, that was my sleeve!”
38.
I don’t know if the Amity pick up on that kind of thing, but no one says anything
39.
That is not an Amity trait
40.
“I’ve never seen the Amity armed before,” the factionless woman with the knife says
41.
Tobias emerges from the men’s bathroom a few minutes later, his red Amity shirt replaced by a black T-shirt, and his short hair glistening with water
42.
“You should have stayed with the Amity
43.
I was going crazy with the Amity
44.
I had all but forgotten about what I heard in the Amity compound, about the information my father risked his life for
45.
I think of the blood on Shauna’s shirt, and long for the Amity orchards, the sound of the wind in the leaves, the feeling of bark beneath my hands

The Amity must be deranged if this is how they really think
52.
“What’s an Abnegation member doing in a truck with two Amity?”
53.
“There’s nothing the Dauntless hate more than cheerful Amity babble,” says Christina, lifting a shoulder
54.

55.
I have never seen an Amity religious ceremony before
56.
It takes me a few minutes to find Christina, dressed in Amity yellow on the right side of the room, but it is easy to spot Marcus, who stands on the roots of the giant tree with Johanna
57.
The injury that gave her the scar also damaged her eye—her pupil is so dilated it overwhelms her iris, and her left eye doesn’t move with the right one as she scans the Amity in front of her
58.
But there are not just Amity
59.
A few of the Amity scramble to their feet, then a few more, and soon the entire crowd is on their feet, and some of them—not many, but some—are walking out behind her
60.
THE ERUDITE DORMITORY is one of the larger sleeping rooms in Amity headquarters
61.
“The Amity will like this,” Cara says
62.
I made it so that the Amity would have a way of defending themselves without shooting anyone
63.
Behind her waits a small convoy of vehicles packed with Amity—but not just Amity, because Abnegation, with their severe hairstyles and still mouths, are among them
64.
“But I’m not the representative of Amity anymore
65.
I am sure she meant them as a threat, and a feeble one, but it rings in my head like it was something more—like she could easily have been talking not about the Amity, but about another oppressed group

51 Afterward Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptoleme King of Egypt with a message to this effect: 52 Forasmuch as I am come again to my realm and am set in the throne of my progenitors and have gotten the dominion and overthrown Demetrius and recovered our country; 53 For after I had joined battle with him both he and his host was discomfited by us so that we sit in the throne of his kingdom: 54 Now therefore let us make a league of amity together and give me now your daughter to wife and I will be your son in law and will give both you and her as according to your dignity

The social compromise devised by Muhammad for the Muslim-Jewish amity and his concessions to the theological demands of the Quraysh cited here could guide the Indian Musalmans in fashioning a Hindu - Muslim compromise
93.
As for the Hindus, don’t they love the continuance of the Indo-Islamic culture, exemplified by the Hindustani music that is resplendent with the Bismillah Khans, Bade Ghulam Ali Khans, Begum Akthars and others?
