More quotes by J. K. Rowling

I don't think you should be an Auror, Harry, said Luna unexpectedly. Everybody looked at her. The Aurors are part of the Rotfang Conspiracy, I thought everyone knew that. They're working to bring down the Ministry of Magic from within using a mixture of dark magic and gum disease.
J. K. Rowling
I'm opposed to fundamentalism in any form.
J. K. Rowling
Well, [bad] times like that bring out the best in some people and the worst in others.
J. K. Rowling
I'm sure that I'll never have another success like Harry Potter for the rest of my life, no matter how many books I write, and no matter whether they're good or bad.
J. K. Rowling
That's chess! snapped Ron. You've got to make some sacrifices!
J. K. Rowling
Every second he breathed, the smell of the grass, the cool air on his face, was so precious: To think that people had years and years, time to waste, so much time it dragged, and he was clinging to each second.
J. K. Rowling
At fourteen, you really do start realising that the world is not a safe and protected place or not always.
J. K. Rowling
Magic has universal appeal. I don't believe in magic in the way that I describe in my books, but I'd love it to be real.
J. K. Rowling
One more lesson like that and I might just do a Weasley.
J. K. Rowling
Sport is a very important subject at school, that's why I gave Quidditch such an important place at Hogwarts. I was very bad in sports, so I gave Harry a talent I would really loved to have. Who wouldn't want to fly?
J. K. Rowling
