“I read somewhere, once, that crying defies scientific explanation. Tears are only meant to lubricate the eyes. There is no real reason for tear glands to overproduce tears at the behest of emotion. I think we cry to release the animal parts of us without losing our humanity.”
― Veronica Roth, Insurgent

“We teachers are rather good at magic, you know.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
