Oh, my dear Miss Everdeen. I thought we had an agreement not to lie to each other.
Suzanne Collins

The way she kissed you in the Quarter Quell…well she never kissed me like that…I should have volunteered to take your place in the first Games. Protected her then…I guess it’s Katniss’ problem. Who to choose…Katniss will pick whoever she thinks she can’t survive without.

You never know. Say the arena's actually a giant cake- Say we move on, I broke in.

Better not to give in to it.
Suzanne Collins

We had to save you because you're the mockingjay, Katniss, says Plutarch. While you live, the revolution lives.

Well, I can't leave Mags behind, says Finnick. She's one of the few people who actually likes me.

But if you want to find peace, you must first be able to hope it is possible.
