I never need to find time to read. When people say to me, ‘Oh, yeah, I love reading. I would love to read, but I just don’t have time,’ I’m thinking, ‘How can you not have time?’ I read when I’m drying my hair. I read in the bath. I read when I’m sitting in the bathroom. Pretty much anywhere I can do the job one-handed, I read.

Do you mean ter tell me, he growled at the Dursleys, that this boy—this boy!—knows nothin' abou'—about ANYTHING? Harry thought this was going a bit far. He had been to school, after all, and his marks weren't bad. I know some things, he said. I can, you know, do math and stuff.
J. K. Rowling
I think that emotionally, I've probably felt a little bit more balanced when I started writing again.
J. K. Rowling
Sword? Haven't got a sword. That boy has, though. He'll lend you one.
J. K. Rowling
Yeah, well, food's one of the five exceptions to Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfigurations, said Ron, to general astonishment.
J. K. Rowling
We Slytherins are brave, yes, but not stupid. For instance, given the choice, we will always choose to save our own necks.
