J. K. Rowling
There is no point in apportioning blame. What is done, is done.
J. K. Rowling
He sobbed in desperation at the burden of fear he carried with him every day of his life.
J. K. Rowling
If she could have done one thing to make absolutely sure that every single person in this school will read your interview, it was banning it!
J. K. Rowling
Hallows, not Horcruxes.

J. K. Rowling
Magic causes as much trouble as it cures.
J. K. Rowling
Fools who wear their hearts proudly on their sleeves, who cannot control their emotions, who wallow in sad memories and allow themselves to be provoked this easily - weak people, in other words.

J. K. Rowling
