  1. When you've been set up to lose everything you love, what is there left to fight for?

  2. No way to control the outcome of the reaping or whatever follows it. So don't feed the nightmares. Don't let yourself panic. Don't give the Capitol that.

    March 2025 · Haymich p. 3, Own words

  3. Lately the theme has been "No Peace" and the slogans bombard you from every side. NO PEACE, NO BREAD! NO PEACE, NO SECURITY! and of course, NO PEACEKEEPERS, NO PEACE!
