Elizabeth GilbertDo not think I do not realise what I am doing. I am making a composition using the following elements: the winter beach; the winter moon; the ocean; the women; the pine trees; the riders; the driftwood; the shells; the shapes of darkness and the shapes of water; and the refuse.

We're halfway down the first tunnel when I realize what was so remarkable about that exchange. Peeta sounded like his old self, the one who could always think of the right thing to say when nobody else could...

By six o'clock she was morally on her knees before him; she was imploring him to stay to dinner with her. He refused.

She knew how he looked--the angel in her dream--but she didn't know how to find him. Should she roller-skate through the streets in the evenings when the streetlights flicker on?

Was he waiting, dreaming of her in the same way she waited and dreamed?

One that could kill you.
