“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

“I’m bad news, all right,” said Coriolanus.”
― Suzanne Collins, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

― Suzanne Collins, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

“And try not to look down on people who had to choose between death and disgrace.”
