It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all, in which case you have failed by default.
From J. K. Rowling
It is our choices... that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
I sometimes have a tendency to walk on the dark side.
And the idea of just wandering off to a cafe with a notebook and writing and seeing where that takes me for awhile is just bliss.
I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had.
Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike.
It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
If you want to see the true measure of a man, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.
I will carry on writing, to be sure. But I don't know if I would want to publish again after Harry Potter.
Humans have a knack for choosing precisely the things that are worst for them.
