More quotes by Suzanne Collins
Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor.
Suzanne Collins
Plutarch rushes to reassure me. Oh, no, Katniss. Not your wedding. Finnick and Annie's. All you need to do is show up and pretend to be happy for them. That's one of the few things I won't have to pretend, Plutarch, I tell him.
Suzanne Collins
Not if we blow it up, Gale says brusquely. His intent, his full intent, becomes clear. Gale has no interest in preserving the lives of those in the Nut. No interest in caging the pray for later use. This is one of his death traps.
Suzanne Collins
Instead of satisfying me, the kisses have the opposite effect, of make my need greater. I thought I was something of an expert on hunger, but this is an entirely new kind.
Suzanne Collins
My sleep wasn't peaceful, though. I have the sense of emerging from a world of dark, haunted places where I traveled alone.
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
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
Remember, girl on fire,” he says, “I'm still betting on you.
Suzanne Collins
At the moment, the choice would be simple. I can survive just fine without either of them.
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
The more you can distract yourself, the better.
Suzanne Collins
My mouth has gone dry as sawdust. I desperately find Cinna in the crowd and lock eyes with him. I imagine the words coming from his lips. 'What's impressed you most since you arrived here?' I rack my brain for something that made me happy here. Be honest, I think. Be honest.
Suzanne Collins
Taking the kids from our districts, forcing them to kill one another while we watch – this is the Capitol’s way of reminding us how totally we are at their mercy.
Suzanne Collins
Who says i can't handle it? I can handle it, said Gregor obviously not handling it.
Suzanne Collins
Someone ought to get Haymitch a drink.
Suzanne Collins
There's no district 12 to escape from now, no Peacekeepers to trick, no hungry mouths to feed. The Capitol took away all of that, and I'm on the verge of losing Gale as well. The glue of mutual needs that bonded us so tightly together for all those years is melting away.
Suzanne Collins
I keep hoping that as time passes by, we’ll regain the ease between us, but part of me knows it’s futile. There’s no going back.
Suzanne Collins
My name is Katniss Everdeen. I am seventeen years old. My home is District 12. I was in the Hunger Games. I escaped. The Capitol hates me.
Suzanne Collins
I must have loved you a lot.
Suzanne Collins
This is no place for a girl on fire.
