More quotes by Suzanne Collins
A verbal promise behind closed doors, even a statement written on paper-these could easily evaporate . . . .
Suzanne Collins
Peeta, you were supposed to wake me after a couple of hours, I say. For what? Nothing's going on here, he says. Besides, I like watching you sleep. You don't scowl. Improves your looks a lot. This, of course, brings on a scowl that makes him grin.
Suzanne Collins
Crying is not an option.
Suzanne Collins
They can fatten me up. They can give me a full body polish, dress me up, and make me beautiful again. They can design dream weapons that come to life in my hands, but they will never again brainwash me into the necessity of using them. I no longer feel allegiance to these monsters called human beings, despite being one myself.
Suzanne Collins
Sometimes when things are particularly bad, my brain will give me a happy dream.
Suzanne Collins
I'm not good at talking about myself.
Suzanne Collins
I take a few breaths to calm myself, step back, and lift Buttercup by the scruff of the neck. I should've drowned you when I had the chance. His ears flatten and he raises a paw. I hiss before he gets a chance, which seems to annoy him a little, since he considers hissing his own personal sound of contempt.
Suzanne Collins
Birds are settling down for the night, singing lullabies to their young.
Suzanne Collins
My death could, in fact, save him. If it can't, no matter. It's enough to die of spite. To punish Haymitch, who, of all the people in this rotting world, has turned Peeta and me into pieces in his Games. I trusted him. I put what was precious in Haymitch's hands. And he has betrayed me.
Suzanne Collins
Well you are a piece of work aren't you?
Suzanne Collins
Stupid people are dangerous.
Suzanne Collins
Well, don't expect us to be too impressed. We just saw Finnick Odair in his underwear.
Suzanne Collins
I'm sick of people lying to me for my own good. Because really it's mostly for their own good.
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
So that day, in music assembly, the teacher asked who knew the valley song. Your hand shot right up in the air. She stood you up on a stool and had you sing it for us. And I swear, every bird outside the windows fell silent...and right when your song ended, I knew - just like your mother - I was a goner.
Suzanne Collins
Even in war there should be lines you didn't cross.
Suzanne Collins
My name is Katniss Everdeen. Why am I not dead? I should be dead.
Suzanne Collins
And to us, we're more married than any piece of paper or big party could make us.
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
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.
