Courage only counts when you can count.

Peeta? I creep along the bank. Well, don't step on me.
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.

Destroying things is much easier than making them.
Suzanne Collins

Because something is significantly wrong with a creature that sacrifices its children’s lives to settle its differences.
Suzanne Collins
Image
If you won't talk about yourself, at least compliment the audience. Just keep turning it back around, all right. Gush.
Suzanne Collins

My nightmares are usually about losing you. I'm okay once I realize you're here.
Suzanne Collins

Because I can count on my fingers the number of sunsets I have left, and I don't want to miss any of them.

Let the Seventy-forth Hunger Games begin, Cato, I think. Let them begin for real.

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.

We star-crossed lovers of District 12, who suffered so much and enjoyed so little the rewards of our victory, do not seek our fans' favor, grace them with our smiles, or catch their kisses. We are unforgiving. And I love it. Getting to be myself at last.

Remember, heads high. Smiles. They're going to love you!
