“When I die it's not me that will be affected. It's the ones I leave behind.”

“When I get sick I start scripting the video tape that I'm gonna leave behind when I die. Sometimes imagining that even makes me cry. Both hurting and happiness make me feel more alive, but as I get older it seems that hurting's the low hanging fruit. So I pick it.”

“I leave my character behind me.”

“To live in hearts we leave behind
Is not to die.”

“Well, I can't leave Mags behind," says Finnick. "She's one of the few people who actually likes me.”

“Caresses, expressions of one sort or another, are necessary to the life of the affections as leaves are to the life of a tree. If they are wholly restrained, love will die at the roots.”

“I don’t want my thoughts to die with me, I want to have done something. I’m not interested in power, or piles of money. I want to leave something behind. I want to make a positive contribution - know that my life has meaning.”

“The most extraordinary dream I ever had was one in which I fancied that, as I was going into a theater, the cloak-room attendant stopped me in the lobby and insisted on my leaving my legs behind me.”

“I'm the one that's got to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to.”

“So I departed, leaving behind a pungent smell of brimstone. Just something to remember me by.”
