More quotes by Suzanne Collins

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
One of the most memorable things I hear is when someone tells me that my books got a reluctant reader to read.
Suzanne Collins
You can swim, too. he says. Where did you learn that in District Twelve? We have a very big bathtub.
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
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
Underground. Which I hate. Like mines and tunnels and 13. Underground, where I dread dying, which is stupid because even if I die aboveground, the next thing they'll do is bury me underground anyway.

Let the Seventy-forth Hunger Games begin, Cato, I think. Let them begin for real.
Suzanne Collins
Well, don't expect us to be too impressed. We just saw Finnick Odair in his underwear.
Suzanne Collins
I'm not a very fancy person. I've been a writer a long time, and right now 'The Hunger Games' is getting a lot of focus. It'll pass. The focus will be on something else. It'll shift. It always does. And that seems just fine.
Suzanne Collins
But I feel as if I did know Rue, and she'll always be with me. Everything beautiful brings her to mind. I see her in the yellow flowers that grow in the Meadow by my house. I see her in the Mockingjays that sing in the trees. But most of all, I see her in my sister, Prim.
Suzanne Collins
We have to joke about it because the alternative is to be scared
Suzanne Collins
Kind people have a way of working their way inside me and rooting there.
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
I merely feel emptyness. A hollow of dead brush where flowers use to bloom.
Suzanne Collins
But I don't know what to him about the aftermath of killing a person. About how they never leave you.
Suzanne Collins
Behind a rack of framed photos of Snow, we encounter a wounded Peacekeeper propped up against a strip of brick wall. He asks us for help. Gale knees him in the side of the head and takes his gun.
Suzanne Collins
Besides, it's the first gift that's always the hardest to pay back. I wouldn't even have been here to do it if you hadn't helped me then.
Suzanne Collins
Because that's what you and I do, protect each other.
Suzanne Collins
I'm not their slave, the man mutters. I am, I say. That's why I killed Cato ... and he killed Thresh ... and he killed Clove ... and she tried to kill me. It just goes around and around, and who wins? Not us. Not the districts. Always the Capitol. But I'm tired of being a piece in their Games.
