“I hope old new doesn't haunt new you. We've already got enough ghosts between us.”
― Suzanne Collins, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

“We wouldn't even have wars, if adults followed the rules they learned as children. A four-year old would be able to see how foolish grown men are behaving if you explained the war in child's terms. A boy named Germany started causing problems all over the playground that included beating up a girl named Belgium on his way to hurt a kid named France. Then England tried to beat up Germany to help France and Belgium, and when that didn't work, they called over a kid named America, and people started pounding on him, too.”
― Cat Winters, In the Shadow of Blackbirds

“Courage in battle was often necessary because of someone else’s poor planning.”
― Suzanne Collins, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

“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 Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
