More quotes by Suzanne Collins
That should have been my strategy! By the time I’ve worked through the emotions of surprise, admiration, anger, jealousy, and frustration, I’m watching that reddish mane of hair disappear into the trees well out of shooting range.
Suzanne Collins
Hey, Effie, watch this! says Peeta. He tosses his fork over his shoulder and literally licks his plate clean whit his tongue making loud, satisfied sounds. Then he blows a kiss out to her in general and calls, We miss you, Effie!
Suzanne Collins
But there was only one kiss that made me feel something stir deep inside. Only one that made me want more. But my head wound started bleeding and he made me lie down.
Suzanne Collins
I flee what I can't fight. What can only do me harm.
Suzanne Collins
In other words, I step out of line and we're all dead.
Suzanne Collins
I don't know what I expected from my first meeting with Peeta after the announcement. A few hugs and kisses. A little comfort maybe. Not this. I turn to Haymitch. Don't worry, I'll get you more liquor.
Suzanne Collins
He felt around desperately for a weapon. What did he have? Diapers? Cookies? Oh, why hadn't they given him a sword? He was the stupid warrior, wasn't he? His fingers dug in the leather bag and closed around the root beer can. Root beer! He yanked out the can shaking it with all his might. Attack! Attack! he yelled.
Suzanne Collins
And once we reach the city, my stylist will dictate my look for the opening ceremonies tonight anyway. I just hope I get one who doesn't think nudity is the last word in fashion.
Suzanne Collins
So I only say, So what should we do with our last few days? I just want to spend every possible minute of the rest of my life with you, Peeta replies.
Suzanne Collins
And to us, we're more married than any piece of paper or big party could make us.
Suzanne Collins
I take Peeta's face in my hands. Don't worry. I'll see you at midnight.
Suzanne Collins
Never having been in love, this is going to be a real trick. I think of my parents. The way my father never failed to bring her gifts from the woods. The way my mother's face would light up at the sound of his boots at the door. The way she almost stopped living when he died.
Suzanne Collins
So instead of acknowledging applause, I stand there unmoving while they take part in the boldest form of dissent they can manage. Silence. Which says we do not agree. We do not condone. All of this is wrong.
Suzanne Collins
Whose is it, do you think? I say finally. No telling, says Finnick. Why don't we let Peeta claim it, since he died today?
Suzanne Collins
While I was waiting...I ate your lunch.
Suzanne Collins
There was no discussion between them it was as if the bugs had worked out this whole scenario long ago. Temp put on a burst of speed for the end of the bridge, and Tick turned to face down the army of rats alone.
Suzanne Collins
I also want to tell him how much I already miss him. But that wouldn't be fair on my part.
Suzanne Collins
I think we put our children at an enormous disadvantage by not educating them in war, by not letting them understand about it at an early age.
Suzanne Collins
At some point, you have to stop running and turn around and face whoever wants you dead.The hard thing is finding the courage to do it.
Suzanne Collins
But once I saw Fulvia Cardew crumple up a sheet of paper with just a couple of words written on it and you would’ve thought she’d murdered someone from the looks she got.
