I don't feel I owe my readers details of my family's private life.

What's life without a little risk?

It is not our abilities that show what we truly are. It is our choices.

We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

It is our choices... that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all of the power we need inside ourselves already.

The world is full of wonderful things you haven't seen yet. Don't ever give up on the chance of seeing them.

There is an expiry date on blaming your parents for steering you in the wrong direction; the moment you are old enough to take the wheel, responsibility lies with you.

Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart!

Twilight fell: The sky turned to a light, dusky purple littered with tiny silver stars.

Remember, darkness does not always equate to evil, just as light does not always bring good.

Sometimes writing songs is like waiting for deliveries.

All writers have periods when they stop writing, when they cannot write, and this is always painful and terrible because writing is like breathing.

Doe what thou oughtest, and come what come can.

It's hard but it's not too much of a challenge because i'm doing what i love

For indeed you have a choice. You can flee and hide, and wait to be found. You can live out your days in terror, without meaning. Or you can take the harder choice, and you can save them.

Exercise should be fun, otherwise, you won't be consistent.

Enthusiasm is the steam that drives the engine.

Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you. Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
