More quotes by 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
I drag myself out of nightmares each morning and find there's no relief in waking.
Suzanne Collins
It's to the Capitol's advantage to have us divided among ourselves. Another tool to cause misery in our district. A way to plant hatred between the starving workers [of the Seam] and those who can generally count on supper and thereby ensure we will never trust one another.
Suzanne Collins
But some secrets are too delicious not to share.
Suzanne Collins
We had to save you because you're the mockingjay, Katniss, says Plutarch. While you live, the revolution lives.
Suzanne Collins
But the only thing that distracts me from my current situation is fantasizing about killing President Snow.
Suzanne Collins
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.
Suzanne Collins
I’m in pain. That’s the only way I get your attention
Suzanne Collins
It's impossible to be the Mockingjay. Impossible to complete even this one sentence. Because now I know that everything I say will be directly taken out on Peeta. Result in his torture. But not his death, no nothing so merciful as that. Snow will ensure that his life is much worse than death.
Suzanne Collins
I killed you. And you. And you.
Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
Shame isn't a strong enough word for what I feel. You could live a hundred lifetimes and not deserve him, you know, Haymitch says.
Suzanne Collins
I merely feel emptyness. A hollow of dead brush where flowers use to bloom.
Suzanne Collins
I say we try it,' says Peeta. 'Katniss is right.' Finnick looks at Johanna and raises his eyebrows. He will not go forward without her. 'All right,' she says finally. 'It's better than hunting them down in the jungle, anyway. And I doubt they'll figure out our plan, since we can barely understand it ourselves.
Suzanne Collins
Because something is significantly wrong with a creature that sacrifices its children’s lives to settle its differences.
Suzanne Collins
But just before they cut back to the main newscaster, I see the unmistakable flash of that same mockingjay's wing. The reporter has simply been incorporated into the old footage. She's not in District 13 at all. Which begs the question, What is?
Suzanne Collins
Greeting to the final contestants of the Seventy-fourth Hunger Games. The earlier revision has been revoked. Closer examination of the rule book has disclosed that only one winner may be allowed, he says. Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor.
Suzanne Collins
I'm very hard to catch, says Rue. And if they can't catch me, they can't kill me. So don't count me out.
Suzanne Collins
I trusted him. I put what was precious in Haymitch's hands. & he has betrayed me
Suzanne Collins
Barbarism? That's ironic coming from a woman helping to prepare us for slaughter. And what's she basing our success on? Our table manners?
