J. K. Rowling
Dobby is a free elf, and Dobby has come to save Harry Potter and his friends!
J. K. Rowling
I had an American journalist say to me, Is it true you wrote the whole of the first novel on napkins? I was tempted to say, On teabags, I used to save them.

J. K. Rowling
Assuming I survive our hunt for the Horcruxes, I’ll find Mum and Dad and lift the enchantment. If I don’t – well, I think I’ve cast a good enough charm to keep them safe and happy. Wendell and Monica Wilkins don’t know that they’ve got a daughter, you see.
J. K. Rowling
In the end, it mattered not that you could not close your mind. It was your heart that saved you.
J. K. Rowling

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
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
By all means continue destroying my possessions. I daresay I have too many.
J. K. Rowling
I won't say 'never,' but I have no plans to write an eighth book.
J. K. Rowling
