Suzanne Collins
As long as you can find yourself, you’ll never starve.
Suzanne Collins
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.
Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
His dad said even the cavemen had geniuses among them. Somebody had thought up the wheel.
Suzanne Collins
Here began countless days of hunting and snaring, fishing and gathering, roaming together through the woods, unloading our thoughts while we filled our game bags. This was the doorway to both sustenance and sanity. And we were each other's key.
Suzanne Collins
Oh, well. At least my blood is flowing.
Suzanne Collins
But Gale is not one to keep secrets from me. Katniss, there is no District Twelve.
Suzanne Collins
Just one more thing. I kill Snow.
Suzanne Collins
Then I get it, what it means. At least, for me. District 12 only has three existing victors to choose from. Two male. One female... I am going back into the arena.
Suzanne Collins
I miss him so badly it hurts.
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
Oh, my dear Miss Everdeen. I thought we had an agreement not to lie to each other.
