More quotes by 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
If you had hope, maybe you could find a way to make things change,. Because if you thought about it, there were so many reasons to try.
Suzanne Collins
Tuck in your tail, little duck.
Suzanne Collins
its not in my nature to go down without a fight even when things seem insurmountable
Suzanne Collins
Of course you are. The tributes were necessary to the Games, too. Until they weren't, I say. And then we were very disposable - right, Plutarch?
Suzanne Collins
I'm going to be the Mockingjay.
Suzanne Collins
Okay, maybe I don't go around loving everybody I meet, maybe my smiles are hard to come by, but I do care for some people.
Suzanne Collins
If I'm going to die, I want to still be me
Suzanne Collins
As the alcohol overcomes my mind, I hear the glass bottle shatter on the floor. This seems appropriate since I have obviously lost my grip on everything.
Suzanne Collins
A need for revenge can burn long and hot. Especially if every glance in a mirror reinforces it.
Suzanne Collins
In the end, the only person I truly want to comfort me is Haymitch, because he loves Peeta, too.
Suzanne Collins
In really bad times, the hungriest would gather at his door at nightfall, vying for the chance to earn a few coins to feed their families by selling their bodies. Had I been older when my father died, I might have been among them. Instead I learned to hunt.
Suzanne Collins
Kind people have a way of working their way inside me and rooting there.
Suzanne Collins
You're still trying to protect me. Real or not real, he whispers. Real, I answer. Because that's what you and I do, protect each other.
Suzanne Collins
Anyway, even if she's sugarcoating my good points, I appreciate it. Frankly, I could use a little sugarcoating.
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
aren't they the very reason I have to try to fight? Because what has been done to them is so wrong, so beyond justification, so evil that there is no choice? Because no one has the right to treat them as they have been treated?
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.
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
What do I mean when I say I love Gale? I don't know. I did kiss him last night, in a moment when my emotions were running so high. But I'm sure he doesn't remember it. Does he? I hope not. If he does, everything will just get more complicated and I really can't think about kissing when I've got a rebellion to incite.
Suzanne Collins
