Haymitch Abernathy

"There's no such thing as a safe bet in the Hunger Games."

"The key is to make people want to sponsor you. Money is survival."

"I didn't volunteer. I was reaped, just like you."

"You think you're the first person to be scared? You're not special."

"Keep your allies close and your enemies closer."

"Nobody cares what happened to me. They care about what happens to you."

"You want sponsors? Give them something they've never seen before."

"The dead don't need my help. The living do."

"I've been to the Games. I know what kills you."

"Love is a luxury. Survival is a necessity."

"Your only job is to stay alive long enough to get sponsors."

"I'm drunk because it helps me forget. What's your excuse?"

"You've got to learn to use what you're good at."

"The Capitol doesn't care about fair. They care about entertaining."

"I've mentored plenty of tributes. Most of them are dead."

"You want to win? Stop thinking like a victim."

"The Games are about survival, not morality."

"I'm still alive, aren't I? That means something."

"You don't have to like me. You just have to listen to me."

"Education doesn't matter in the arena. Instinct does."

"Time is the one thing you can't buy or win back."

"The only real enemy is the one holding a weapon."

"You've got to believe you're going to win. If you don't, nobody else will."

"I don't ask tributes to die. I teach them how to live."

"Freedom is a beautiful thing, but it's also dangerous."

"Peace is what happens when someone wins."

"The Capitol is listening. Always remember that."

"Art is just another way to manipulate people."

"Science can't save you in the arena. Only you can."

"You want to hear music? Listen to the crowd cheering your name."
