"‘Are you preparing for another war, Plutrach?’ I ask.
‘Oh, not now. Now we’re in that sweet period where everyone agrees that our recent horrors should never be repeated,’ he says, ‘But collective thinking is usually short lived. We’re fickle, stupid beings with poor memories and a greater gift for self-destruction. Although who knows? Maybe this will be it, Katniss.’"
- Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, Book #3) by Suzanne Collins
"Frankly, our ancestors don’t seem much to brag about. I mean, look at the state they left us in, with the wars, the broken planet. Clearly, they didn’t care about what would happen to the people who came after them."
- Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, Book #3) by Suzanne Collins
