"Good night," said the Rat.
"Good night," said J. "Oh, and one last thing. Somebody said it. Walk slowly and drink lots of water!"
Sayfa 143 - Kodansha International, Translated by Alfred Birnbaum
I long for the comfort of night.
The sun feels warm on my face. Before, sunshine was a good thing. But this is the After, and outside of New Hope, the light means only one thing if you’re not armed: death.
Peeta and I grow back together. There are still moments when he clutches the back of a chair and hangs on until the flashbacks are over. I wake screaming from nightmares of mutts and lost children. But his arms are there to comfort me. And eventually his lips. On the night I feel that thing again, the hunger that overtook me on the beach, I know this would have happened anyway. 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.
So after, when he whispers, "You love me. Real or not real?"
I tell him, "Real."
Sonra üç kere good night dedik
Duyan olmadı...

The blood I spit out is good blood and the beer I drink sets the hills of hell on fire. And each day I grow some more like a small cactus sticking those thorns up out of the dryness.
I am not big enough to accept the works of nature; I can only accept what it says inside: I don’t like it. And that’s good enough for me.

Sumatra Cum Laude
sitting across from my kindly lawyer, I
think, in this society one needs a good
lawyer, a good tax accountant, a decent
auto mechanic, a sympathethic doctor and
a faithful wife, at least, in order to
survive.
also, one needs a talent of one’s own,
very few friends, a good security
system and the ability to sleep at night.
you need at least these things for
beginners and as enders, of course, you
hope to evade the long illness, the
senility, the death before death, you
hope for the quick clean finish and
very little mourning from anybody
closely connected.
sitting across from my kindly lawyer, I
have these thoughts.
we are on the 16th floor of a downtown
building. (…)
A Tough Time
“I was a student of philosophy,”
said the guy at the end of the bar.
“good,” said a guy at the middle
of the bar.
“how’d you like to come down
here and lick my balls?”
On The Hustle
I suppose
one of the worst times was
when
after a drunken reading and
an all-night party
I promised to appear at
The Blinds
I moved to Philadelphia for some peace and quiet after New York City. After paying a week’s rent in a roominghouse, I walked down the street to look for the nearest bar. Half a block. I walked in and sat down. It was the poor part of town and the bar was fifty years old. You could smell the urine and shit of one-half a century wafting

"Sana söylediğim gibi, düşünce biçimini değiştirmelisin. Yani her bir düşünceni kontrol edip bunun amacınla aynı doğrultuda olduğundan emin olman gerekir. Eğer yanlış yola sapan bir düşünce fark edersen hemen düzeltip doğru yola sokmalısın. Geçmişte yaşadığın ve sana acı veren ayrılıkları unutman gerekmiyor. Sadece onların arkasına saklanmaktan vazgeç ve alman gereken dersleri al..."
"Like I told you, you have to change your way of thinking. So you need to check each thought and make sure it is in line with your goal. If you notice a thought that is going astray, you should immediately correct it and put it on the right path. You don't have to forget the painful breakups you had in the past. Just stop hiding behind them and learn the lessons you need to learn..."

...Parting is such sweet sorrow,
That I shall say good night till it be morrow.
