More quotes by Suzanne Collins
It's hard to hate my prep team. They're such total idiots. - Katniss.
Suzanne Collins
Plutarch rushes to reassure me. Oh, no, Katniss. Not your wedding. Finnick and Annie's. All you need to do is show up and pretend to be happy for them. That's one of the few things I won't have to pretend, Plutarch, I tell him.
Suzanne Collins
maybe it's that we are all so starved for something good to happen that we want to be a part of it.
Suzanne Collins
Why am I hopping around like some trained dog trying to please people I hate?
Suzanne Collins
If my holding out those berries was an act of temporary insanity, then those people will embrace insanity too.
Suzanne Collins
He hates me more, says Peeta. I don't think people in general are his sort of thing.
Suzanne Collins
Yes, it's your fault I'm alive.
Suzanne Collins
Want a sugar cube? he asks in his old seductive voice.
Suzanne Collins
This is what birds see. Only they're free and safe. The very opposite of me.
Suzanne Collins
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.
Suzanne Collins
They don't know that I'm already asking for the moon.
Suzanne Collins
I remember the first time I saw you. Your hair was in two braids instead of one. And I remember when you... you sang in the music assembly and the teacher said... Who knows The Valley Song? and your hand shot straight up. After that, I... I watched you going home every day...
Suzanne Collins
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
A verbal promise behind closed doors, even a statement written on paper-these could easily evaporate . . . .
Suzanne Collins
I pull the sleeping bag up to his chin and kiss his forehead, not for the audience, but for me. Because I'm so grateful that he's here, not dead by the stream as I'd thought. So glad I don't have to face Cato alone.
Suzanne Collins
I realize only one person will be damaged beyond repair if Peeta dies. Me.
Suzanne Collins
What about you? Not a clue. I keep wishing I could bake a cake or something.
Suzanne Collins
Sorry excuses for hunters and friends. Both of us.
Suzanne Collins
We could do it, you know. What? Leave the district. Run off. Live in the woods. You and I, we could make it.
Suzanne Collins
Never having been in love, this is going to be a real trick. I think of my parents. The way my father never failed to bring her gifts from the woods. The way my mother's face would light up at the sound of his boots at the door. The way she almost stopped living when he died.
