To be joining 'The Hunger Games' family is such a thrill. It deserves the hype because it's well written, handles really big subject matter, but doesn't talk down to its audience. And then there's the romance element. ~ Natalie Dormer
The Hunger Games quotes by Natalie Dormer
Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I think the hardcore fans can expect exactly what both 'The Hunger Games' and 'Catching Fire' delivered: 'Mockingjay' is going to be as faithful a rendition of Suzanne's Collins's world and books and characters as we can put out! ~ Elizabeth Banks
The Hunger Games quotes by Elizabeth Banks
Little decisions were made, every day. In this movie [The Hunger Games], we really focused on Cinna and we didn't get time to focus on the other stylist. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
I look down from the branch I'm perched on. The Careers look murderous. Now I smile.'How have things been with you?' I ask sweetly. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
When i was 9 I didn't go to Narnia, when i grew 11 my Hogwarts letter didn't come, again when i was twelve my satyr didn't come and now I'll wait till I'm fifty maybe the hunger games will come ~ Javeria My Own Quote
The Hunger Games quotes by Javeria My Own Quote
I've just had the opportunity to see the finished film of 'The Hunger Games.' I'm really happy with how it turned out. I feel like the book and the film are individual yet complementary pieces that enhance one another. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
You're not doing the scene exactly the way it is in the book [The Hunger Games], but the intention of the scene is there. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
What's great about working with EPIX is that we have unparalleled access to the top movie talent and do exclusive 1:1 sit-down interviews with the actors, sometimes before anyone else does. With 'The Hunger Games,' we had our own studio set up and did 1:1s with Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson, Lenny Kravitz, etc. ~ Carly Steel
The Hunger Games quotes by Carly Steel
I loved making 'The Hunger Games' - it was the happiest experience of my professional life. Lionsgate was supportive of me in a manner that few directors ever experience in a franchise: they empowered me to make the film I wanted to make and backed the movie in a way that requires no explanation beyond the remarkable results. ~ Gary Ross
The Hunger Games quotes by Gary Ross
I just...I just miss him. And I hate being so alone. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
It's hard to hate my prep team. They're such total idiots. - Katniss. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Apparently our portmanteau is trending on Twitter." He let out a self-deprecating laugh. "I didn't even know what a portmanteau was before Jukebox Hero. It's a mashup of our names, like Brangelina or Robsten. No idea what ours is
what do our names make?" He considered this a for a moment before shaking his head.
"It's probably awful," he decided. "Could be worse, though; I hear the portmanteau for the main characters in The Hunger Games is ... well, their names are Peeta and Katniss. I'll let you guys figure that one out on your own. ~ Andrea D. Smith
The Hunger Games quotes by Andrea D. Smith
Just one more thing. I kill Snow. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
In the end, the only person I truly want to comfort me is Haymitch, because he loves Peeta, too. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
In stark contrast to two nights ago, when I felt Peeta was a million miles away, I'm struck by his immediacy now. As we settle in, he pulls my head down to use his arm as a pillow; the other rests protectively over me even when he goes to sleep. No one has held me like this in such a long time. Since my father died and I stopped trusting my mother, no one else's arms have made me feel this safe. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I want to spend every possible minute of the rest of my life with you. -Peeta Mellark ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I finished 'The Hunger Games' trilogy, and I love most anything with zombies. ~ Rachel Gibson
The Hunger Games quotes by Rachel Gibson
Being able to just stick to our instincts and honor the [Hunger Games] books and find a way to stay the course of trying to make the best possible decisions that you would make creatively on any movie, without having your head turned too much by all of the interest, has been a great challenge. It's the best challenge you could ask for, but that was a big challenge. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
I am mouthy, and I get easily annoyed, and I don't know how to shoot a bow and arrow, so dystopias are a solid no from me. I'm basically Peeta from The Hunger Games, except gay. I am here for the baked goods and then basically I'm going to be dead weight. Cut your losses. ~ R. Eric Thomas
The Hunger Games quotes by R. Eric Thomas
I wasn't going to make a slick, glossy over-produced piece of entertainment because then I would be doing what the Capitol did. Then I'm actually putting on the Hunger Games and not making a movie of the 'Hunger Games.' ~ Gary Ross
The Hunger Games quotes by Gary Ross
Here's some advice. Stay alive, says Haymitch, and then bursts out laughing. I exchange a look with Peeta before I remember that I'm having nothing more to do with him. I'm surprised to see the hardness in his eyes. He generally seems so mild.
'That's very funny,' says Peeta. Suddenly, he lashes out at the glass in Haymitch's hand. It shatters on the floor, sending the bloodred liquid running toward the back of the train. 'Only not to us.'
Haymitch considers this a moment, then punches Peeta in the jaw, knocking him from his chair. When he turns back to reach for the spirits, I drive my knife into the table between his hand and the bottle, barely missing his fingers. I brace myself to deflect his hit, but it doesn't come. Instead, he sits back and squints at us.
'Well, what's this?' says Haymitch. 'Did I actually get a pair of fighters this year? ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
The rules of the Hunger Games are simple. In punishment for the uprising, each of the twelve districts must provide one girl and one boy, called tributes, to participate. The twenty-four tributes will be imprisoned in a vast outdoor arena that could hold anything from a burning desert to a frozen wasteland. Over a period of several weeks, the competitors must fight to the death. The last tribute standing wins. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I no longer feel allegiance to these monsters called human beings, despise being one myself. I think that Peeta was onto something about us destroying one another and letting some decent species take over. Because something is significantly wrong with a creature that sacrifices its children's lives to settle its differences. You can spin it any way you like. Snow thought the Hunger Games were an efficient means of control. Coin thought the parachutes would expedite the war. But in the end, who does it benefit? No one. The truth is, it benefits no one to live in a world where these things happen. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I know we promised Haymitch, we'd do exactly what they said, but I don't think he considered this angle.'
'Where is Haymitch, anyway? Isn't he supposed to protect us from this sort of thing?' says Peeta.
'With all that alcohol in him, it's probably not advisable to have him around an open flame,' I say. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Peeta smiles and douses Haymitch's knife in white liquor from a bottle on the floor. He wipes the blade clean on his shirt tail and slices the bread. Peeta keeps all of us in fresh baked goods. I hunt. He bakes. Haymitch drinks. We have our own ways to stay busy, to keep thought of our time as contestants in the Hunger Games at bay. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Listen up. You're in trouble. Word is the Capitol's furious about you showing them up in the arena. The one thing they can't stand is being laughed at and they're the joke of Panem ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
So…you're not going to tell me what they mean? C'mon. What's the Hob? Why Forks?"

When I stand, I switch to my blatantly rude, you're-an-idiot tone. This is the one that always pisses off my mom. To be sure he's not missing my insult this time, I also cross my arms and speak very slowly like I'm speaking to a toddler. "The Hob is from The Hunger Games books. It's the underground market where the characters trade food and information. Forks would be the town in Twilight. The setting. In boy-speak, Forks equals the planet Tatooine for Star Wars. You know - Anakin Skywalker's childhood home? Or are you not familiar with any global blockbusters? I suppose I could use Sesame Street or Pokémon for a reference - if it would help you understand better?"

Bam. That should seal it. I couldn't have sounded more like a total bitch.

He nods. "No, I've got it. My bedroom was Tatooine for all of third and fourth grade. Boy-speak…that's funny." He laughs again, and it sounds warm and - and - not at all offended! ~ Anne Eliot
The Hunger Games quotes by Anne  Eliot
This place is packed with beautiful hipsters. While the Coney Island bombast radiated sincerity, everything here seems more ironic. When someone in the crowd ironically chants, 'USA!' someone else ironically chants back, 'Mother Russia. ~ Jon Ronson
The Hunger Games quotes by Jon Ronson
I don't think it's going to work out. Winning ... won't help in any case. Because ... she came here with me. - Peeta Mellark ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Katniss, got that spile? Finnick asks, snapping me back to reality. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I am not the kind of person who becomes so invested in a book or movie or television show that my interest becomes a hobby or intense obsession, one where I start to declare allegiances or otherwise demonstrate a serious level of commitment to something fictional I had no hand in creating.

Or, I didn't used to be that kind of person.

Let me be clear: Team Peeta. I cannot fathom how one could be on any other team. Gale? I can barely acknowledge him. Peeta, on the other hand, is everything. He frosts things and bakes bread and is unconditional and unwavering in his love, and also he is very, very strong. He can throw a sack of four, is what I'm saying. Peeta is a place of solace and hope, and he is a good kisser. ~ Roxane Gay
The Hunger Games quotes by Roxane Gay
Despite a seemingly pervasive belief that only people of colour 'play the race
card', it does not take anything as dramatic as a slave revolution or Japanese
imperialism to evoke white racial anxieties, something as trivial as the casting of
non-white people in films or plays in which a character was 'supposed' to be
white will do the trick. For example, the casting of Olivier award-winning
actress Noma Dumezweni to play the role of Hermione in the debut West End
production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child got bigots so riled up that J. K.
Rowling felt the need to respond and give her blessing for a black actress to play
the role. A similar but much larger controversy occurred when the character Rue
in the film The Hunger Games was played by a black girl, Amandla Stenberg.
Even though Rue is described as having brown skin in the original novel, 'fans'


of the book were shocked and dismayed that the movie version cast a brown girl
to play the role, and a Twitter storm of abuse about the ethnic casting of the role
ensued. You have to read the responses to truly appreciate how angry and
abusive they are.- As blogger Dodai Stewart pointed out at the time:

All these . . . people . . . read The Hunger Games. Clearly, they all fell in
love with and cared about Rue. Though what they really fell in love with was
an image of Rue that they'd created in their minds. ~ Akala
The Hunger Games quotes by Akala
I've got to read the 'Hunger Games' before I see the movie. ~ Misty May-Treanor
The Hunger Games quotes by Misty May-Treanor
She crept up on me. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
[On The Hunger Games success]: It hit on the zeitgeist of the disparity b/w the haves and have nots. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
What must it be like, I wonder, to live in a world where food appears at the press of a button? How would I spend the hours I now commit to combing the woods for sustenance if it were so easy to come by? What do they do all day, these people in the Capitol, besides decorating their bodies and waiting around for a new shipment of tributes to rill in and die for their entertainment? ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I picked up 'The Hunger Games' thinking it was written at my regressed reading level. I've spent hours reading it, and I'm not even halfway through. Our bass player, whose name is also Nate, ended up reading all three novels and loved them. ~ Nate Ruess
The Hunger Games quotes by Nate Ruess
On the Hunger Games Fan Race fail and the portrayal of POC in fantasy literature:
It is as if the POC in the text are walking around with a great big red sign over them for some editors and it reads I AM NOT A REAL CHARACTER. I AM A PROBLEM YOU MUST DEAL WITH. The white characters are permitted to saunter about with their physical descriptions hanging out all over the place, but best not make mention of dark skin or woolly/curly hair or dark eyes (Unless, of course, that character is white. None of my white-skinned dark-eyed characters had any problem being described as such. And I'm pretty sure that Sól's curly hair never gave anyone a single pause for thought.) As I said, I understand the desire not to define a POC simply by their physical attributes, and I understand cutting physical descriptions if no other character is described physically – but pussyfooting about in this manner with POC is doing nothing but white wash the characters themselves. It's already much too hard to get readers to latch onto the fact that some characters may not be caucasian, why must we dance about their physical description as if it were some kind of shameful dirty little secret. You know what it reminds me of? It reminds me of the way homosexuality used to only ever be hinted at in texts. It was up to the reader to 'read between the lines' or 'its there if you look for it' and all that total bullshit which used to be the norm. ~ Celine Kiernan
The Hunger Games quotes by Celine Kiernan
Winning means fame and fortune.
Losing means certain death.
The Hunger Games have begun ... ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Suzanna Collins was very supportive, but we very much wanted her blessing on casting. In production, she visited us once, but she really was not involved in the production process. She's seen the Hunger Games movie twice, in the post-production process, once as an early cut and then once when it was finished. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
Peeta, how come I never know when you're having a nightmare?" I say.
"I don't know. I don't think I cry out or thrash around or anything. I just come to, paralyzed with terror," he says.
"You should wake me," I say, thinking about how I can interrupt his sleep two or three times on a bad night. About how long it can take to calm me down.
"It's not necessary. My nightmares are usually about losing you," he says. "I'm okay once I realize you're here. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
In the greed-is-good tradition of the 'Harry Potter' and 'Twilight' movie franchises, the overseers of 'The Hunger Games' have split the last book into two films. ~ Richard Corliss
The Hunger Games quotes by Richard Corliss
Throw me to the wolves and I'll return leading the pack. (Katness in The Hunger Games) ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
So many people look up to Jennifer Lawrence playing Katniss in 'The Hunger Games.' For them to look up to Rey and what she represents would be fantastic. She's a wonderful character ... The reason I love her so much is she does all the fun stuff. She fights, runs and protects herself and has an incredible emotional story. ~ Daisy Ridley
The Hunger Games quotes by Daisy Ridley
In 'The Hunger Games,' in most people's idea, in terms of rebellion or a civil-war situation, that would meet the criteria for a necessary war. These people are oppressed, their children are being taken off and put in gladiator games. They're impoverished, they're starving, they're brutalized. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I tell him,"Real.""-Katniss Everdeen ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I refused to fight them-to beat up on them or potentially kill them if things got out of hand. It was like being in a real, albeit messed-up, version of "The Hunger Games".
"The Hunger Games" for alien hybrids. ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout
The Hunger Games quotes by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Love shouldn't feel like the Hunger Games. There should not be a constant struggle for survival. ~ Amanda Mosher
The Hunger Games quotes by Amanda Mosher
He said, See that little girl? I wanted to marry her mother, but she ran off with a coal miner."
-Peeta Mellark in The Hunger Games ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
One of the biggest inspirations before I started shooting came from my brother, when he texted me and said, 'Hey, fatty, it's called 'The Hunger Games', not 'The Eating Games'. So I started working out a lot more and eating a lot less. ~ Liam Hemsworth
The Hunger Games quotes by Liam Hemsworth
Being older, I began to understand the lyrics. At the beginning, it sounds like a guy is trying to get his girlfriend to secretly meet up with him at midnight. But it's an odd place for a tryst, a hanging tree, where a man was hung for murder. The murderer's lover must have had something to do with the killing, or maybe they were just going to punish her anyway, because his corpse called out for her to flee. That's weird obviously, the talking-corpse bit, but it's not until the third verse that "The Hanging Tree" begins to get unnerving. You realize the singer of the song is the dead murderer. He's still in the hanging tree. And even though he told his lover to flee, he keeps asking if she's coming to meet him. The phrase Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free is the most troubling because at first you think he's talking about when he told her to flee, presumably to safety. But then you wonder if he meant for her to run to him. To death. In the final stanza, it's clear that that's what he was waiting for. His lover, with her rope necklace, hanging dead next to him in the tree.

I used to think the murderer was the creepiest guy imaginable. Now, with a couple of trips to the Hunger Games under my belt, I decide not to judge him without knowing more details. Maybe his lover was already sentenced to death and he was trying to make it easier. To let her know he'd be waiting. Or maybe he thought the place he was leaving her was really worse than death. Didn't I wa ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games were an opportunity for wealth and a kind of glory not seen elsewhere. Of course, the people of 2 swallowed the Capitol's propaganda more easily than the rest of us. Embraced their ways. But for all that, at the end of the day, they were still slaves. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I looked up at the video camera and stared. Then raised my hand and gave it the middle finger.
"I thought you were going to give it the District Twelve salute," Jamie said. ~ Michelle Hodkin
The Hunger Games quotes by Michelle Hodkin
He could have had his choice of any woman in the district. And he chose solitude. Not solitude – that sounds too peaceful. More like solitary confinement. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I had no idea 'The Hunger Games' was so big. I didn't even know the book. I had been living under my own rock. ~ Lenny Kravitz
The Hunger Games quotes by Lenny Kravitz
Why...do you find this...distracting? ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Twilight' has a supernatural reference to it with werewolves and vampires. 'Harry Potter' has magic. 'The Hunger Games' is about real people put into extreme situations and circumstances. ~ Isabelle Fuhrman
The Hunger Games quotes by Isabelle Fuhrman
You've got about as much charm as a dead slug. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
My love for these books, at its purest, is not really about Peeta or anything silly and girly. I love that a young woman character is fierce and strong but hum in ways I find believable, relatable. Katniss is clearly a heroine, but a heroine with issues. She intrigues me because she never seems to know her own strength. She isn't blandly insecure the way girls are often forced to be in fiction. She is brave but flawed. She is a heroine, but she is also a girl who loves two boys and can't choose which boy she loves more. She is not sure she is up to the task of leading a revolution, but she does her best, even as she doubts herself.

Katniss endures the unendurable. She is damaged and it shows. At times, it might seem like her suffering is gratuitous, but life often presents unendurable circumstances people manage to survive. Only the details differ. The Hunger Games trilogy is dark and brutal, but in the end, the books also offer hope - for a better world and a better people and, for one woman, a better life, a life she can share with a man who understands her strength and doesn't expect her to compromise that strength, a man who can hold her weak places and love her through the darkest of her memories, the worst of her damage. Of course I love the Hunger Games. The trilogy offers the tempered hope that everyone who survives something unendurable hungers for. ~ Roxane Gay
The Hunger Games quotes by Roxane Gay
When you read a book [The Hunger Games], you create that tonal bandwidth. You set a tone for yourself, as you're reading it, in which everything exists within the world of your imagination. In the book, it's great when she can push a button and food comes up, as per your order. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
I read The Hunger Games voraciously and was extremely annoyed when interrupted by such inconsequential things as 'Christmas dinner.' (God, Mom, did you not understand Katniss was being pursued by the mutts? You have several children, why does it always have to be about collecting the whole set all the time?) ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
The Hunger Games quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
My brother was a huge fan of 'The Hunger Games' for a couple of years before I got the role, so he was really excited when he heard that I got the role. ~ Willow Shields
The Hunger Games quotes by Willow Shields
Okay, listen to me, you're stronger than they are. You are. They just want a good show, that's all they want. You know how to hunt. Show them how good you are. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I raise an eyebrow, working to achieve the right tone of intellectual superiority. If you've never read the Twilight books or the Hunger Games series you wouldn't understand. Not. One. Bit. They are complex stories. Big words. Probably beyond you. ~ Anne Eliot
The Hunger Games quotes by Anne Eliot
All the writing elements are the same. You need to tell a good story ... You've got good characters ... People think there's some dramatic difference between writing 'Little Bear' and the 'Hunger Games,' and as a writer, for me, there isn't. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
It's somewhat disquieting that the same parents and educators who are horrified by the notion of child soldiers have bestowed upon 'The Hunger Games' a double mantle of critical praise and global bestsellerdom. ~ Kenneth Oppel
The Hunger Games quotes by Kenneth Oppel
What do you read after the Hunger Games? Start the Octagon series for just 99c - Limited Time Only. For Sale on Amazon Kindle ~ J.K. Ellem
The Hunger Games quotes by J.K. Ellem
I'm a 'Harry Potter' fan, a 'Twilight' fan, and I think 'The Hunger Games' surpasses them all. ~ Malese Jow
The Hunger Games quotes by Malese Jow
Whedon: Studios will tell you: A woman cannot headline an action movie. After The Hunger Games they might stop telling you that a little bit. Whatever you think of the movie, it's done a great service. And after The Avengers, I think it's changing.
Johansson: A lot of the female superhero movies just suck really badly.
Whedon: The suck factor is not small.
Johansson: They are really not well made, and already you're fighting against the tide. There are a couple [female-driven action movies] that have worked-ish, don't you think?
Hemsworth: Angelina Jolie tends to do it pretty well, as the dominant female.
Jackson: They got to get The Pro to the screen!
Whedon: [Groaning] See, that is the problem. Sam is the problem!
Jackson: I love that book!
Whedon: [Reluctantly] The Pro is hilarious.
Jackson: The Pro's hilarious. [To the group] You ever see or hear of it?
Johansson: No, what's The Pro?
Jackson: It's [a comic book] about a hooker who gets super powers!
Johansson: [Pauses] That is exactly the problem right there.
Whedon: That's why I wasn't going to bring up The Pro!

(From an Entertainment Weekly interview) ~ Joss Whedon
The Hunger Games quotes by Joss Whedon
'The Hunger Games' for me is I love the books so much and the character and the story were incredible. That's kind of the game plan is just do really interesting stories with interesting characters. ~ Josh Hutcherson
The Hunger Games quotes by Josh Hutcherson
Flight is essential, but I can't let my fear show. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
A leather bag filled with food and a flask of hot tea. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
The changes that happened in my life from doing these movies are so permanent that I don't think I'll ever really say goodbye, it'll always be a part of me, the Hunger Games. ~ Jennifer Lawrence
The Hunger Games quotes by Jennifer Lawrence
I think that the thing that is really strong with 'The Hunger Games' is just that it comes from a very strong idea. ~ Francis Lawrence
The Hunger Games quotes by Francis Lawrence
After I read 'The Hunger Games,' I went out and got 'Catching Fire' the next day. ~ Jodelle Ferland
The Hunger Games quotes by Jodelle Ferland
I was an early adopter of the 'Hunger Games.' I read them before they were best sellers - I was on the pre-order wait list for 'Mockingjay' on Amazon. ~ Elizabeth Banks
The Hunger Games quotes by Elizabeth Banks
She'd never physically hit anyone in her life, until now, because her survival required it. For a brief moment, she felt like she was in The Hunger Games. ~ Ann Greyson
The Hunger Games quotes by Ann Greyson
In other people's books, I tend to love the really daredevil-y characters. I love Finnick from 'The Hunger Games.' And I think, probably, my favorite character of all time is Sherlock Holmes. ~ Cassandra Clare
The Hunger Games quotes by Cassandra Clare
I'm stopped by the sight of Finnick kissing Peeta. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I lean over and put my good ear to his lips, which tickle me as he whispers. Remember, we're madly in love, so it's all right to kiss me any time you like it. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Our original idea was to write a book titled Fifty Shades of the Hunger Games, by J.K. Rowling with Stephen King: A John Grisham Novel. ~ Dave Barry
The Hunger Games quotes by Dave Barry
I have some idea that if I pick on [boy band] One Direction, I'll get a ton of hate mail, because I know that when you're 15, you love a band like you will kill people. But I don't quite realize that that's true about people - adults - who read The Hunger Games. ~ Joel Stein
The Hunger Games quotes by Joel Stein
'The Hunger Games' has something for everyone. ~ Natalie Dormer
The Hunger Games quotes by Natalie Dormer
Where's Lover Boy? Oh, I see. You were gonna help him, right? Well that's sweet. It's too bad you couldn't help your little ... friend. That little girl? What was her name again? Rue? Well, we killed her. And now ... we're gonna kill you. -Clove, The Hunger Games ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
It's weird, how much he's noticed me ... And apparently, I have not been as oblivious to him as I imagined, either. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
He looks down at his legs as if noticing his outfit for the first time. Then he whips off his hospital gown, leaving him in just his underwear. "Why? Do you find this" - he strikes a ridiculously provocative pose - "distracting? ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
I felt that there were so many things that could go wrong, in adapting The Hunger Games , and I had this fierce desire to protect this book that she had written. At that time, I read the second book, in manuscript form, and so I saw where she was going with the series. I was able to convince Suzanne [Collins] to trust me with the books. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
Smiling is mostly about smiling more. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
The odds are never in our favour. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
It's strange to be so physically close to someone who's so distant ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Each day i wake and think at last this nightmare is over. But it never is. ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Trust is important. I think it's more important than love. I mean, I love all kinds of things I don't trust. Thunderstorms... white liquor... snakes. Sometimes I think I love them because I can't trust them, and how mixed up is that? ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
'The Hunger Games' isn't for everybody. But neither is 'Anna Karenina.' ~ Mary Schmich
The Hunger Games quotes by Mary Schmich
I was focused on The Hunger Games movie with my director, with the studio, and with the cast and crew. We all just focused on making the best possible movie we could, and earning the right to do more. ~ Nina Jacobson
The Hunger Games quotes by Nina Jacobson
The world of 'The Hunger Games' is a paranoid survivalist's dream. ~ Kenneth Oppel
The Hunger Games quotes by Kenneth Oppel
The real sports of the Hunger Games is watching the tributes kill one another ~ Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games quotes by Suzanne Collins
Something that's bothered me for a while now is the current profligacy in YA culture of Team Boy 1 vs Team Boy 2 fangirling. [...] Despite the fact that I have no objection to shipping, this particular species of team-choosing troubled me, though I had difficulty understanding why. Then I saw it applied to Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games trilogy – Team Peeta vs Team Gale – and all of a sudden it hit me that anyone who thought romance and love-triangles were the main event in that series had utterly missed the point. Sure, those elements are present in the story, but they aren't anywhere near being the bones of it, because The Hunger Games, more than anything else, is about war, survival, politics, propaganda and power. Seeing such a strong, raw narrative reduced to a single vapid argument – which boy is cuter? – made me physically angry.

So, look. People read different books for different reasons. The thing I love about a story are not necessarily the things you love, and vice versa. But riddle me this: are the readers of these series really so excited, so thrilled by the prospect of choosing! between! two! different! boys! that they have to boil entire narratives down to a binary equation based on male physical perfection and, if we're very lucky, chivalrous behaviour? While feminism most certainly champions the right of women to chose their own partners, it also supports them to choose things besides men, or to postpone the question of partnership in favour of ~ Foz Meadows
The Hunger Games quotes by Foz Meadows
Kids are not physical creatures, and they're not stupid. They know all about violence and power and raw emotions. What's really scary is when adults pretend that such things don't exist."

(Grossman's review of The Hunger Games in "Time" magazine, Sept. 7, 2009) ~ Lev Grossman
The Hunger Games quotes by Lev Grossman
They'll either want to kill you, kiss you, or be you. ~ Suzanne Collins
