More quotes by 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
Frankly, our ancestors don't seem much to brag about. I mean, look at the state they left us in, with the wars, the broken planet. Clearly, they didn't care about what would happen to the people who came after them.
Suzanne Collins
We star-crossed lovers of District 12, who suffered so much and enjoyed so little the rewards of our victory, do not seek our fans' favor, grace them with our smiles, or catch their kisses. We are unforgiving. And I love it. Getting to be myself at last.
Suzanne Collins
They can pump whatever they want into my arm but it takes more than that to keep a person going once she's lost the will to live.
Suzanne Collins
In really bad times, the hungriest would gather at his door at nightfall, vying for the chance to earn a few coins to feed their families by selling their bodies. Had I been older when my father died, I might have been among them. Instead I learned to hunt.

Suzanne Collins
My time in the arena made me realize how I needed to stop punishing [my mother] for something she couldn't help, specifically the crushing depression she fell into after my father's death. Because sometimes things happen to people and they're not equipped to deal with them.
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
I'm running on hate. When the energy from that ebbs I'll be worthless.
Suzanne Collins
But some secrets are too delicious not to share.
Suzanne Collins
Our romance became a key strategy for our survival in the arena. Only it wasn't just a strategy for Peeta.
Suzanne Collins
I miss home badly sometimes. But then I remember there's nothing left to miss anymore. I feel safer here.
Suzanne Collins
The anguish I always feel when she's in pain wells up in my chest and threatens to register on my face.
Suzanne Collins
I miss him so badly it hurts.
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
Closing my eyes doesn't help. Fire burns brighter in the darkness.
Suzanne Collins
Someone ought to get Haymitch a drink.
Suzanne Collins
Well, don't expect us to be too impressed. We just saw Finnick Odair in his underwear.
Suzanne Collins
I don’t want anyone with me today. Not even him. Some walks you have to take alone.
Suzanne Collins
Maybe the other tributes are out there beating one another senseless. Which would be fine. - Katniss -
