I will never have a life with Gale even if I want to.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I’ve stopped talking because there’s really nothing left to say and there’s this piercing sort of pain where my heart is. Maybe I’m even having a heart attack, but it doesn’t seem worth mentioning.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Remember that even in war there is a time for restraint. A time to hold back your sword.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I'm not their slave, the man mutters. I am, I say. That's why I killed Cato ... and he killed Thresh ... and he killed Clove ... and she tried to kill me. It just goes around and around, and who wins? Not us. Not the districts. Always the Capitol. But I'm tired of being a piece in their Games.
Suzanne Collins

My name is Katniss Everdeen. Why am I not dead? I should be dead.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I can hear him weeping but I don't care. They probably won't even bother to question her, she's so far gone. Gone right off the deep end years ago in her Games. There's a good chance I'm headed in the same direction. Maybe I'm already going crazy and no one has the heart to tell me. I feel crazy enough.

Because that's what you and I do, protect each other.

Image
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
Image
If it's true, why do they leave us to live like this? With the hunger and the killings and the Games? And suddenly I hate this imaginary underground city of District 13 and those who sit by, watching us die. They're no better than the Capitol.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Not if we blow it up, Gale says brusquely. His intent, his full intent, becomes clear. Gale has no interest in preserving the lives of those in the Nut. No interest in caging the pray for later use. This is one of his death traps.
Suzanne Collins

Doors are for those who lack enemies.
Suzanne Collins
Image
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
Image
Entrails. No hissing. This is the closest we will ever come to love.
Suzanne Collins

KEEP CALM and HAVE A SUGAR CUBE
Suzanne Collins
Image
Stupid people are dangerous.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Because something is significantly wrong with a creature that sacrifices its children’s lives to settle its differences.
Suzanne Collins
Image
They recognize me. Of course they recognize me. My face is uncovered and I'm standing here outside of District 12 pointing an arrow at them. Who else would I be?
Suzanne Collins
Image
Something small and quiet, like a match being struck, lights up the gloom inside of me.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I have not wept since the death of my parents, said Luxa quietly. But I am thought to be unnatural in this respect.
Suzanne Collins
Image
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.
