More quotes by J. K. Rowling
Angelina, Alicia, and Katie suddenly giggled. What? said Wood, frowning at this lighthearted behavior. He's that tall, good-looking one, isn't he? said Angelina. Strong and silent, said Katie, and they started to giggle again. He's only silent because he's too thick to string two words together, said Fred impatiently.

I'm not so naive that I didn't know or didn't suspect that, at some point, someone was going to say You're writing about the occult. My wizarding world is a world of imagination. I think it is a moral world.

Listeners, that brings us to the end of another Potterwatch. We don’t know when it will be possible to broadcast again, but you can be sure we shall be back. Keep twiddling those dials: the next password will be ‘Mad-Eye.’ Keep each other safe. Keep faith. Good night.

If you made a better rat than a human, it’s not much to boast about, Peter.
J. K. Rowling
Why were you lurking under our window? Yes - yes, good point, Petunia! What were you doing under our windows, boy? Listening to the news, said Harry in a resigned voice. His aunt and uncle exchanged looks of outrage. Listening to the news! Again? Well, it changes every day, you see, said Harry.
J. K. Rowling
Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can't see where it keeps its brain.
J. K. Rowling
You could tie my hands to my sides, I suppose, but I have to write. For my own mental health, I need to write.
J. K. Rowling
Pagford, which by night was no more than a cluster of twinkling lights in a dark hollow far below, was emerging into chilly sunlight.
J. K. Rowling
Talent and intelligence never yet inoculated anyone against the caprice of the fates.
J. K. Rowling
I won't say 'never,' but I have no plans to write an eighth book.
J. K. Rowling
Yes, Harry, blessed as I am with extraordinary brainpower, I understood everything you told me. I think you might even consider the possibility that I understood more than you did.
J. K. Rowling
I look at the effect that an individual's fame has on their family, for example, and the limitations that places upon your life to an extent - of course, it brings marvelous things too, but it brings them mainly to the individual. The people around the famous person often pay a price without reaping many of the rewards.
J. K. Rowling

J. K. Rowling
The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure. Thoughts are not etched on the inside of skulls, to be perused by an invader. The mind is a complex and many-layered thing.
J. K. Rowling
I love being a writer. I am very lucky my life's ambition turned out to be just as much fun as I thought it would be.
