Famous Quotes & Sayings

Suzanne Collins

Then it’s just Venia, whose skin is so pale her tattoos appear to be leaping off it. Almost rigid with determination, she does my hair and nails and makeup, fingers flying swiftly to compensate for her absent teammates. The whole time, she avoids my gaze.

The ink is indelible until 22:00—Bathing

There's something really the matter with most people who wear tattoos. There's at least some terrible story.

My girlfriend would fly in & we would sleep in a hammock above the bed the band were sleeping in [laughs]. I like that stuff that's really fun, I like the camping experience.

One for each member of the family I left behind.
