"The bird, the pin, the song, the berries, the watch, the cracker, the dress that burst into flames. I am the mockingjay. The one that survived despite the Capitol's plans. The symbol of the rebellion."
"I realize only one person will be damaged beyond repair if Peeta dies. Me."
"Shame isn't a strong enough word for what I feel. "You could live a hundred lifetimes and not deserve him, you know,"Haymitch says."
