More quotes by J. K. Rowling
And as she jogged out of sight, they could hear her muttering, Tentacula. Devil's Snare. And Snargaluff pods. Yes, I'd like to see Death Eaters fighting those.
J. K. Rowling
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
Time will not slow down when something unpleasant lies ahead.
J. K. Rowling
I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had.
J. K. Rowling
As far as informing the headmaster, Harry had no idea where Dumbledore went during the summer holidays. He amused himself for a moment, picturing Dumbledore, with his long silver beard, full-length wizard's robes, and pointed hat, stretched out on a beach somewhere, rubbing suntan lotion onto his long crooked nose.
J. K. Rowling
He tried to give his wife pleasure in little ways, because he had come to realize, after nearly two decades together, how often he disappointed her in the big things. It was never intentional. They simply had very different notions of what ought to take up most space in life.
J. K. Rowling
Some people do not seem to grasp that I still have to sit down in peace and write the books, apparently believing that they pop up like mushrooms without my connivance.
J. K. Rowling
Vot is the point of being an international Quidditch player if all the good-looking girls are taken?
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 think the single biggest thing that money gave me-and obviously I came from a place where I was a single mother and it really was hand to mouth at one point. It was literally as poor as you can get in Britain without being homeless at one point. If you've ever been there you will never, ever take for granted that you don't need to worry. Never.
J. K. Rowling
Whoops - My wand is a little over excited!
J. K. Rowling
I think it’s the books that you read when you’re young that live with you forever.
J. K. Rowling
What would your head have been doing in Hogsmeade, Potter? said Snape softly. Your head is not allowed in Hogsmeade. No part of your body has permission to be in Hogsmeade.
J. K. Rowling
Perhaps you have been looking in the wrong places.
J. K. Rowling
Have to? Of course you have to! But only because of you, Harry, won't rest until Voldemort is finished! Think now, for once, if you have never heard of the prophecy! What would you do?
J. K. Rowling
If you have to ask, you’ll never know. If you know, you need only ask.
J. K. Rowling
Death is just life's next big adventure.
J. K. Rowling
I loathe people who say, 'I always read the ending of the book first.' That really irritates me, It's like someone coming to dinner, just opening the fridge and eating pudding, while you're standing there still working on the starter. It's not on.
J. K. Rowling
I remember the first time I heard a teenager say 'LOL.' Just what? But it means 'laugh.' Why don't you just laugh? What are you doing?
J. K. Rowling
Finding out what you’re good at, and doing it to the best of your ability, is the route to self-respect.
