He became my confidante, someone with whom I could share thoughts I could never voice...In exchange, he trusted me with his.
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.
Suzanne Collins
It's ideal really. They will come up with a plan. No one will like it. Everyone will feel they have been treated unfairly, but will be happy that their neighbors feel the same. And that is the nature of compromise. Now let's go eat an awful lot.
Suzanne Collins
What about Gale? He's not a bad kisser either, I say shortly. And it was okay with both of us? You kissing the other? He asks. No. It wasn't okay with either of you. But I wasn't asking your permission, I tell him. Peeta laughs again, coldly, dismissively. Well, you're a piece of work, aren't you?
Suzanne Collins
If you won't talk about yourself, at least compliment the audience. Just keep turning it back around, all right. Gush.
Suzanne Collins

Remembering from last year how Haymitch's gifts are often timed to send a message, I make a note to myself. Be friends with Finnick. You'll get food.
Suzanne Collins
I know. I was hoping, I say. Exactly. Because you're desperate, says Haymitch. I don't argue because, of course, he's right.
Suzanne Collins
Then he smiles as if he'd be happy to lie there and gaze at me forever.
Suzanne Collins
Ladies and gentlemen..... His voice is quiet, but mine rings through the room. Let the Seventy-sixth Hunger Games begin!
Suzanne Collins
Oh, my dear Miss Everdeen. I thought we had an agreement not to lie to each other.
Suzanne Collins
I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay right here and cause all kinds of trouble.
Suzanne Collins
Oh, the fun we two have together.
Suzanne Collins
Thank you for you consideration
Suzanne Collins
There's always hand-to-hand combat. All you need is to come up with a knife, and you'll at least stand a chance. If I get jumped, I'm dead! I can hear my voice rising in anger. But you won't! You'll be living up in some tree eating raw squirrels and picking off people with arrows.
Suzanne Collins
Sorry excuses for hunters and friends. Both of us.
Suzanne Collins
Suddenly I am furious, that with my life on the line, they don’t even have the decency to pay attention to me. That I’m being upstaged by a dead pig.
Suzanne Collins
Courage only counts when you can count.
Suzanne Collins
One time, my mother told me that I always eat like I'll never see food again. And I said, I won't unless I bring it home. That shut her up.
Suzanne Collins
I'm so tired, Katniss.
