Suzanne Collins
At the moment, the choice would be simple. I can survive just fine without either of them.

Unfortunately, I can't seal the sponsor deals for you. Only Haymitch can do that, says Effie grimly. But don't worry, I'll get him to the table at gunpoint if necessary. Although lacking in many departments, Effie Trinket has a certain determination I have to admire.
Suzanne Collins
Each time I wake,I think, At last, this is over, but it isn't.
Suzanne Collins
I look down from the branch I'm perched on. The Careers look murderous. Now I smile.'How have things been with you?' I ask sweetly.

Suzanne Collins
I don't know what it is with Finnick and bread, but he seems obsessed with handling it.
Suzanne Collins
There's a chance that the old Peeta, the one who loves you, is still inside. Trying to get back to you. Don't give up on him.
Suzanne Collins
My time in the arena made me realize how I needed to stop punishing [my mother] for something she couldn't help, specifically the crushing depression she fell into after my father's death. Because sometimes things happen to people and they're not equipped to deal with them.
Suzanne Collins
I flee what I can't fight. What can only do me harm.
Suzanne Collins
And she’s very clever, Peeta. Well, she was. Until you outfoxed her
Suzanne Collins
But if you want to find peace, you must first be able to hope it is possible.
Suzanne Collins
I’ve stopped talking because there’s really nothing left to say and there’s this piercing sort of pain where my heart is. Maybe I’m even having a heart attack, but it doesn’t seem worth mentioning.
Suzanne Collins
Because it doesn't matter anymore, and because I'm so desperately lonely I can't stand it.
Suzanne Collins
Someone ought to get Haymitch a drink.
Suzanne Collins
You can swim, too. he says. Where did you learn that in District Twelve? We have a very big bathtub.
Suzanne Collins
My guess is that fearful events are the hardest to root out. They're the ones we naturally remember the best, after all.
