More quotes by Suzanne Collins
Ladies and gentlemen..... His voice is quiet, but mine rings through the room. Let the Seventy-sixth Hunger Games begin!
Suzanne Collins
I notice her blouse has pulled out of her skirt in the back again and force myself to stay calm. Tuck your tail in, little duck, I say, smoothing the blouse back in place. Prim giggles and give me a small Quack. Quack yourself, I say with a light laugh. The kind only Prim can draw out of me.
Suzanne Collins
Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means certain death. The Hunger Games have begun.
Suzanne Collins
I look at Peeta and he gives me a sad smile. I hear Haymitch's voice. You could do a lot worse. At this moment, it's impossible to imagine how I could do any better. The gift...it is perfect. So when I rise up on my tiptoe to kiss him, it doesn't seem forced at all.
Suzanne Collins
Peeta looks me right in the eye and gives my hand what I think is meant to be a reassuring squeeze. Maybe it's just a nervous spasm.
Suzanne Collins
Just the perfect touch of rebellion, says Haymitch Very nice. Rebellion?
Suzanne Collins
At the moment, the choice would be simple. I can survive just fine without either of them.
Suzanne Collins
That if desperate times call for desperate measures, then I'm free to act as desperately as I wish.
Suzanne Collins
Because...because...she came here with me.
Suzanne Collins
I'm not good at talking about myself.
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
Maybe I'd think that, too, Caesar, says Petta bitterly, if it weren't for the baby. There. He's done it again.
Suzanne Collins
A verbal promise behind closed doors, even a statement written on paper-these could easily evaporate . . . .
Suzanne Collins
They hadn’t counted on the highly controlled jabberjay having the brains to adapt to the wild, to pass on its genetic code, to thrive in a new form. They hadn’t anticipated its will to live.
Suzanne Collins
The main thing I feel is a sense of relief. That I can give up this game. That the question of whether I can succeed in this venture has been answered, even if that answer is a resounding no. That if desperate times call for desperate measures, I am free to act as desperately as I want.
Suzanne Collins
There's no district 12 to escape from now, no Peacekeepers to trick, no hungry mouths to feed. The Capitol took away all of that, and I'm on the verge of losing Gale as well. The glue of mutual needs that bonded us so tightly together for all those years is melting away.
Suzanne Collins
Kind people have a way of working their way inside me and rooting there.
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
It's not easy to find a topic. Talking of home is painful. Talking of the present unbearable.
Suzanne Collins
Living out here, I have found that many creatures would prefer not to fight. But if your first instinct is to reach for your sword, you will never discover that.
