More quotes by Suzanne Collins
Remember, heads high. Smiles. They're going to love you!
Suzanne Collins
And then, if you make it to bedtime, you feel the joy of cheating death out of one more day, she said. Do you see?
Suzanne Collins
She genuinely likes people. All people, not just a select few she's spent years making up her mind about.
Suzanne Collins
Her name's Prim. She's just twelve. And I love her more than anything.
Suzanne Collins
I'm not good at talking about myself.
Suzanne Collins
And she's my fiancee. So if you want to get to him, expect to go through both of us.
Suzanne Collins
Instead, I watch myself get shot on television.
Suzanne Collins
Peeta looks at the glass again and puts it together. You mean this will make me puke? My prep team laughs hysterically. Of course, so you can keep eating, says Octavia. I've been in there twice already. Everyone does it, or else how would you have any fun at a feast?
Suzanne Collins
Buttercup, miserable even with Prim’s constant attention, huddles in the cube and exhales cat breath in my face.
Suzanne Collins
In that one slight motion, I see the end of hope, beginning of destruction of everything I hold dear in the world. I can't guess what form my punishment will take, how wide the net will be cast, but when it is finished there most likely be nothing left. So you would think that at this moment, I would be in utter despair.
Suzanne Collins
I wish I could freeze this moment, right here, right now and live in it forever.
Suzanne Collins
So I learned to hold my tongue and to turn my features into an indifferent mask so that no one could ever read my thoughts.
Suzanne Collins
All the writing elements are the same. You need to tell a good story... You've got good characters... People think there's some dramatic difference between writing 'Little Bear' and the 'Hunger Games,' and as a writer, for me, there isn't.
Suzanne Collins
Despite what I feel for Peeta, this is when I accept deep down that he'll never come back to me. Or i'll never go back to him. I'll die for my trouble. And he'll die insane and hating me.
Suzanne Collins
Something inside me shuts down and I'm too numb to feel anything. It's like watching complete strangers in another Hunger Games. But I do notice they omit the part where I covered her in flowers. Right. Because even that smacks of rebellion.
Suzanne Collins
That should have been my strategy! By the time I’ve worked through the emotions of surprise, admiration, anger, jealousy, and frustration, I’m watching that reddish mane of hair disappear into the trees well out of shooting range.
Suzanne Collins
When I ask Plutarch about his absence, he just shakes his head and says, He couldnt face it. Haymitch? Not able to face something? Wanted a day off, more likely, I say. I think his actual words were 'I couldn't face it without a bottle,' says Plutarch.
Suzanne Collins
Tomorrow's a hunting day, I say. I won't be much of a help with that, Peeta says. I've never hunted before. I'll kill and you cook, I say. And you can always gather. I wish there was some sort of bread bush out there, says Peeta.
Suzanne Collins
An ability to look into the confusing mess of life and see things for what they are.
Suzanne Collins
Roses. Wolf mutts. Tributes. Frosted Dolphins. Friends. Mockingjays. Stylists. Me. Everything screams in my dreams tonight.
Suzanne Collins
