    Suzanne Collins
    “And while I was talking, the idea of actually losing Peeta hit me again and I realized how much I don't want him to die. And it's not about the sponsors. And it's not about what will happen when we get home. And it's not just that I don't want to be alone. It's him. I do not want to lose the boy with the bread.”
    ― Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games

    Suzanne Collins
    “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.”

    “عندما نولدُ إناثاً، فنحنُ نولد قضايا، لأن العالم مزوّد بتقنياتٍ جاهزة للحدّ منا، إنني أعتبر فكرة كهذه من قبيل المسلّمات، وفي الوقت نفسه، أظن بأن المرأة التي تترعرع في وطن، أو في منزلٍ، ذكوري، هي امرأة محظوظة، لأن الفرصة متاحة أمامها لتقاتل، إنها تملكُ الكثير من الفرص، لأجل أن تتحول إلى نموذج، فهي كبيرة، لمجرد أنها أنثى، وهي مزودة بقضية جاهزة - بمقاسات ملائمة - لتقاتل من أجلها، لقد وفّرت على نفسها عناء البحث عن معاناة، ومشقة المكابدة لأجل أن تظلّ على قيد الإنسانية، أن لا تتخشب مفاصلها، أو تتحول بشرتها إلى جلد سلحفاة، ووجهها إلى تابوت طفل..”
