Jennifer Lawrence: Katniss Everdeen

Die Tribute von Panem - Mockingjay: Teil 2

Katniss Everdeen

[last lines]
Katniss Everdeen: [to her baby] Did you have a nightmare? I have nightmares, too. Someday I'll explain it to you, why they came, why they won't ever go away, but I'll tell you how I survive it. I make a list in my head... of all the good things I've seen someone do. Every little thing I can remember. It's like a game. I do it over and over. Gets a little tedious after all these years, but... there are much worse games to play.

Katniss Everdeen: We all have one enemy, and that's Snow! He corrupts everyone and everything! He turns the best of us against each other. Stop killing for him! Tonight, turn your weapons to the Capitol! Turn your weapons to Snow!

President Snow: I wanted to tell you how very sorry I am about your sister. So wasteful. So unnecessary. Anyone could see the game was over by that point. In fact I was just about issue an official surrender when they released those parachutes.
Katniss Everdeen: You released those parachutes.
President Snow: You really think I gave the order? We both know I'm not above killing children, but I'm not wasteful. I take life for specific reasons, and there was no reason for me to destroy a pen full of Capitol children. None at all.
[coughs up blood]
President Snow: I must concede, it was a masterful move on Coin's part. The idea that I was bombing our own helpless children to hold back the rebels. It turned the last of my guards against me. There was no resistance left inside the Capitol or the mansion. Do you know it aired live? There's a particular savvy in that, isn't there? I'm sure she wasn't gunning for your sister, but... these things happen in war. My failure was in being so slow to grasp Coin's plan. She let the Capitol and the Districts destroy one another, then she stepped in to take power with 13's arsenal. Oh, make no mistake, she intends to take my place now. But... I've been watching you. And you watching me. I'm afraid we've both been played for fools.
Katniss Everdeen: I don't believe you.
President Snow: Oh, my dear Miss Everdeen. I thought we'd agreed never to lie to each other.

Peeta Mellark: Your favorite color is green. Is that real?
Katniss Everdeen: Yeah. That's real. Yours is orange. Not bright orange. Soft, like the sunset.
Peeta Mellark: Thank you.

Katniss Everdeen: I'm going to kill Snow. Nothing good is safe while he's alive. And I can't make another speech about it. No more cameras. No more propos. No more Games. He needs to see my eyes when I kill him.
Johanna Mason: Now you're talking.

Katniss Everdeen: [as President Snow promises to take care of the refugees until his dying day] I wish he'd hurry up with that last part.

Gale Hawthorne: I saw Peeta before we left.
Katniss Everdeen: And what did you think?
Gale Hawthorne: Something selfish.
Katniss Everdeen: That you don't have to be jealous of him anymore.
Gale Hawthorne: No. I don't stand a chance if he doesn't get better. You'll never let him go.

Johanna Mason: Well, there she is. The Mockingjay. Oh, that speech you gave. Oh, man, feel. I mean, still have goosebumps.
[taking out Katniss' IV]
Johanna Mason: You don't mind, do you? They cut off my supply of morphling. There's this head doctor that comes in and sees me every day, trying to help me adjust to reality. Like some guy from this rabbit's warren actually knows anything about my reality. At least twenty times in a session, he tells me that I'm totally safe. Safe from the Capitol. Safe from Snow. What about you, Mockingjay? You feeling totally safe?
Katniss Everdeen: 'Till I got shot.
Johanna Mason: Oh, please. The bullet didn't even touch you. Cinna saw to that. Of course your costume would be bulletproof. So, what are your injuries?
Katniss Everdeen: Bruised ribs, bruised lung.
Johanna Mason: I'm surprised they haven't found you a new lung. I mean, I've got two. Do you want one of mine? I mean, it's everybody's job to keep you alive.
Katniss Everdeen: Is that why you hate me?
Johanna Mason: Partly. You're also a little hard to swallow. The whole tacky romance drama and the "defender of the hopeless" act. Even though it's not an act, which makes it even more unbearable. Feel free to take any of this personally.

Katniss Everdeen: You should have been the Mockingjay. Nobody else would tell you what to say.
Johanna Mason: But nobody likes me.
Katniss Everdeen: They're afraid of you.

Gale Hawthorne: What's the difference, Katniss? Crushing the enemy in a mine or blowin' them outta of the sky with one of Beetee's arrows. It's the same thing.
Katniss Everdeen: We were under attack in District 8. And that hovercraft wasn't filled with civilians.
Gale Hawthorne: Doesn't matter. Even if those civilians are just moppin' floors, they're helping the enemy. And if they have to die, I can live with that. No one who supports the Capitol is innocent.
Katniss Everdeen: With that kind of thinking, you can kill whoever you want. You can send kids off to the Hunger Games to keep the districts in line.
Gale Hawthorne: It's war, Katniss. Sometimes killing isn't personal. Figured if anyone knew that, it was you.
Katniss Everdeen: I, of all people, know that it's always personal.

Gale Hawthorne: This is another version of booby-trapping a resource.
Beetee: Right, I see.
Gale Hawthorne: This one's designed to blind. Smoke clings to the eyes. That's an application of the hummingbird trap. You scare people so they flee in this direction into what they think is a safe haven.
Beetee: Two-tiered explosion.
Gale Hawthorne: You allow people enough time to rush in, help the wounded, then...
Katniss Everdeen: A second bomb.
Gale Hawthorne: Right. Second one goes off here.
Katniss Everdeen: I guess there are no rules anymore about what a person can do to another person.
Gale Hawthorne: I don't think Snow used any rulebook when he hijacked Peeta.

Lumber rebel: Give me one reason I shouldn't shoot you.
Boggs: Drop the gun!
Katniss Everdeen: I can't. I guess that's the problem, isn't it? We blew up your mine. You burned my district to the ground. We each have every reason to want to kill each other. So if you wanna kill me, do it. Make Snow happy. I'm tired of killing his slaves for him.
Lumber rebel: I'm not his slave.
Katniss Everdeen: I am. That's why I killed Cato. And he killed Thresh. And Thresh killed Clove. It just goes around and around. And who wins? Always Snow. I am done being a piece in his game. District 12, District 2. We have no fight. Except the one the Capitol gave us. Why are you fighting the rebels? You're neighbors. You're family.
