“Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it. You have shown bravery beyond anything I could have expected of you. I ask you to demonstrate your courage one more time. I ask you to tell us what happened.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

“The relationship between you and your body, between you and all those living cells that depend on you, can become the most beautiful relationship.”
― Miguel Ruiz, The Mastery of Love: A Practical Guide to the Art of Relationship, A Toltec Wisdom Book

“Maybe that’s what all lives were, though. Maybe even the most seemingly perfectly intense or worthwhile lives ultimately felt the same. Acres of disappointment and monotony and hurts and rivalries but with flashes of wonder and beauty. Maybe that was the only meaning that mattered. To be the world, witnessing itself.”
― Matt Haig, The Midnight Library

“And now”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
