More quotes by Suzanne Collins
Time and tragedy have forced her to grow too quickly, at least for my taste, into a young woman who stitches bleeding wounds and knows our mother can hear only so much.
Suzanne Collins
The more likable he is, the more deadly he is.” -Katniss Everdeen
Suzanne Collins
aren't they the very reason I have to try to fight? Because what has been done to them is so wrong, so beyond justification, so evil that there is no choice? Because no one has the right to treat them as they have been treated?
Suzanne Collins
The heat of the bread burned into my skin, but I clutched it tighter, clinging to life.
Suzanne Collins
What about Gale? He's not a bad kisser either, I say shortly. And it was okay with both of us? You kissing the other? He asks. No. It wasn't okay with either of you. But I wasn't asking your permission, I tell him. Peeta laughs again, coldly, dismissively. Well, you're a piece of work, aren't you?
Suzanne Collins
I walk around the room eating goose liver and puffy bread until there's a knock on the door. Effie's calling me to dinner. Good. I'm starving.
Suzanne Collins
I have been keeping track of the boy with the bread.
Suzanne Collins
Actually, Katniss isn’t complaining because she has no intention of staying with the “Star Squad,” but she recognizes the necessity of getting to the Capitol before carrying out any plan.
Suzanne Collins
But I don't know what to him about the aftermath of killing a person. About how they never leave you.
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
Oh, the fun we two have together.
Suzanne Collins
Roses. Wolf mutts. Tributes. Frosted Dolphins. Friends. Mockingjays. Stylists. Me. Everything screams in my dreams tonight.
Suzanne Collins
When I ask Plutarch about his absence, he just shakes his head and says, He couldnt face it. Haymitch? Not able to face something? Wanted a day off, more likely, I say. I think his actual words were 'I couldn't face it without a bottle,' says Plutarch.
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
This is what birds see. Only they're free and safe. The very opposite of me.
Suzanne Collins
Cleaning me up is just a preliminary step to determining my new look. With my acid-damaged hair, sunburned skin, and ugly scars, the prep team has to make me pretty and then damage, burn, and scare me in a more attractive way.
Suzanne Collins
I poke around in the pile, about to settle on some cod chowder, when Peeta holds out a can to me. “Here.” I take it, not knowing what to expect. The label reads LAMB STEW.
Suzanne Collins
I can hear him weeping but I don't care. They probably won't even bother to question her, she's so far gone. Gone right off the deep end years ago in her Games. There's a good chance I'm headed in the same direction. Maybe I'm already going crazy and no one has the heart to tell me. I feel crazy enough.
Suzanne Collins
No more fear of hunger. A new kind of freedom. But what then ... what? What would my life be like on a daily basis? Most of it has been consumed with the acquisition of food. Take that away and I'm not really sure who I am, what my identity is. The idea scares me some.
Suzanne Collins
Katniss, there is no District Twelve.
