C.S. Lewis
“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal.

C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

J.K. Rowling
“Hello, Harry" said George, beaming at him. "We thought we heard your dulcet tones."
"You don't want to bottle up your anger like that, Harry, let it all out," said Fred, also beaming. "There might be a couple of people fifty miles away who didn't hear you.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Roald Dahl

Roald Dahl

J.K. Rowling
“From now on, I don't care if my tea leaves spell 'Die, Ron, Die,' I'm chucking them in the bin where they belong.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
