its not in my nature to go down without a fight even when things seem insurmountable
Suzanne Collins
Unfortunately, I can't seal the sponsor deals for you. Only Haymitch can do that, says Effie grimly. But don't worry, I'll get him to the table at gunpoint if necessary. Although lacking in many departments, Effie Trinket has a certain determination I have to admire.
Suzanne Collins
I pull the sleeping bag up to his chin and kiss his forehead, not for the audience, but for me. Because I'm so grateful that he's here, not dead by the stream as I'd thought. So glad I don't have to face Cato alone.
Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
Girl talk. That thing I've always been so bad at.

Suzanne Collins
I thought he wanted it, anyway, I say. Not like this, Haymitch says. He wanted it to be real.
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
I don't know how to make people like me. Cinna, how do you make people like you?
Suzanne Collins
Who says i can't handle it? I can handle it, said Gregor obviously not handling it.
Suzanne Collins
I have zero interest in these Capitol people. They are only distractions from the food.
Suzanne Collins
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
Yes, frosting. The final defense of the dying.
Suzanne Collins
But Gale is not one to keep secrets from me. Katniss, there is no District Twelve.
Suzanne Collins
Destroying things is much easier than making them.
Suzanne Collins
You can swim, too. he says. Where did you learn that in District Twelve? We have a very big bathtub.
Suzanne Collins
Only I keep wishing I could think of a way...to show the Capitol they don't own me. That I'm more than just a piece in their Games.
Suzanne Collins
Stupid people are dangerous.
