J.K. Rowling
“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

“Even among men of science, facts were never allowed to dominate diversion. Dr William Stokes, William Wilde’s great friend and mentor (who lived in the square at No. 5), pronounced it as ‘the golden rule of conversation, to know nothing accurately’.”
Matthew Sturgis, Oscar: A Biography

Hanya Yanagihara
“You see, Jude, in life, sometimes nice things happen to good people. You don’t need to worry—they don’t happen as often as they should. But when they do, it’s up to the good people to just say ‘thank you,’ and move on, and maybe consider that the person who’s doing the nice thing gets a bang out of it as well, and really isn’t in the mood to hear all the reasons that the person for whom he’s done the nice thing doesn’t think he deserves it or isn’t worthy of it.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Bertrand Russell
“It's easy to fall in love. The hard part is finding someone to catch you.”
Bertrand Russell

Sloane Crosley
“Because, ten-year-olds of the world, you shouldn't believe what your teachers tell you about the beauty and specialness and uniqueness of you. Or, believe it, little snowflake, but know it won't make a bit of difference until after puberty. It's Newton's lost law: anything that makes you unique later will get your chocolate milk stolen and your eye blackened as a kid. Won't it, Sebastian? Oh, yes, it will, my little Mandarin Chinese-learning, Poe-reciting, high-top-wearing friend. God bless you, wherever you are.”
Sloane Crosley, I Was Told There'd Be Cake: Essays
