Peeta looks at the glass again and puts it together. You mean this will make me puke? My prep team laughs hysterically. Of course, so you can keep eating, says Octavia. I've been in there twice already. Everyone does it, or else how would you have any fun at a feast?

Suzanne Collins
If I'm going to die, I want to still be me
Suzanne Collins
I see now that the circumstances of ones birth are irrelevent. it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are
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?
Suzanne Collins
I wish she was dead,' he says. 'I wish they were all dead and we were, too. It would be best.
Suzanne Collins
Yes, and I’m sure the arena will be full of bags of flour for me to chuck at people.
Suzanne Collins
Because something is significantly wrong with a creature that sacrifices its children’s lives to settle its differences.
Suzanne Collins
Because...because...she came here with me.
Suzanne Collins
In other words, I step out of line and we're all dead.
