Suzanne Collins
The way she kissed you in the Quarter Quell…well she never kissed me like that…I should have volunteered to take your place in the first Games. Protected her then…I guess it’s Katniss’ problem. Who to choose…Katniss will pick whoever she thinks she can’t survive without.
Suzanne Collins
For there to be betrayal, there would have to have been trust first.
Suzanne Collins
Thinking like your prey. . . that's where you find their vulnerabilities.
Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
I don’t know what the explosion did, but it damaged something deep and irreparable. Never mind. If I get home, I’ll be so stinking rich, I’ll be able to pay someone to do my hearing.
Suzanne Collins
Aim higher in case you fall short.
