Number 1 is this marvel of brilliant insight:

"Because sometimes things happen to people and they’re not equipped to deal with them."

Was the Hunger Games trilogy concurrent with the rise of Kindle?  I suppose it was!  And that explains a few things. 

These might not be classic, great literary words highlighted, but it certainly provides insight into the human mind.

Kindle and other e-readers were out long before The Hunger Games trilogy. However, teens are one of the most ardent reader cohorts. Go into any Barnes and Noble in America and the front displays are always teen related now.
