Slowly, with many lost days, I come back to life. - Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

"I must have loved you a lot."

"Sometimes when I'm alone, I take the pearl from where it lives in my pocket and try to remember the boy with the bread, the strong arms that warded off nightmares on the train, the kisses in the arena."

"Knowing it and seeing it are two different things."

"An ability to look into the confusing mess of life and see things for what they are."

"That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that."
