To this day, I can never shake the connection between this boy, Peeta Mellark, and the bread that gave me hope, and the dandelion that reminded me that I was not doomed.

If he wants me broken, then I will have to be whole.
Suzanne Collins
But some secrets are too delicious not to share.
Suzanne Collins
Maybe the other tributes are out there beating one another senseless. Which would be fine. - Katniss -
Suzanne Collins
He hates me more, says Peeta. I don't think people in general are his sort of thing.
Suzanne Collins
He never lets go of Annie's hand. Not when they walk, not when they eat. I doubt he ever plans to.
Suzanne Collins
But what was it Haymitch said when I asked if he had told Peeta the situation? That he had to pretend to be desperately in love? “Don’t have to. He’s already there.
Suzanne Collins
I've asked you fifty questions and still have no sense of your life, your family, what you care about. They want to know about you, Katniss. But I don't want them to! They're already taking my future! They can't have the things that mattered to time in the past! I say.
Suzanne Collins
And while I was talking, the idea of actually losing Peeta hit me again and I realized how much I don't want him to die. And it's not about the sponsors. And it's not about what will happen when we get home. And it's not just that I don't want to be alone. It's him. I do not want to lose the boy with the bread.
Suzanne Collins
Just last year i wanted to kill him, but now it is my duty to save him.
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
I can't help comparing what I have with Gale to what I'm pretending to have with Peeta. How I never question Gale's motives while I do nothing but doubt the latter's. It's not a fair comparison really. Gale and I were thrown together by a mutual need to survive. Peeta and I know the other's survival means our own death. How do you sidestep that?

Great. Now I have to go back and tell Haymitch I want an eighty-year-old and Nuts and Volts for my allies. He'll love that.
Suzanne Collins
While you live, the revolution lives
Suzanne Collins
No more kisses for you, until you have eaten !
Suzanne Collins
They can fatten me up. They can give me a full body polish, dress me up, and make me beautiful again. They can design dream weapons that come to life in my hands, but they will never again brainwash me into the necessity of using them. I no longer feel allegiance to these monsters called human beings, despite being one myself.
Suzanne Collins
