“if you weren't here, everything would be the worst. Abso-bloody-lutely awful. It'd be dull and lonely and just... don't, all right? Don't be dead. I'm sorry you were expelled and I'm sorry about your father but I'm so glad you're home and I ... really need you right now. So don't wish you were dead because I'm so glad that you're not.”

"Then everyone else doesn't know you.”
