Aisha’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3)

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling

1 highlight

Harry sat on his bed for a long time, absent-mindedly stroking Hedwig. The sky outside the window was changing rapidly from deep, velvety blue to cold, steely grey and then, slowly, to pink shot with gold.

Aisha’s Quotes

“العدالة كلمة قالها أحد الأغبياء فتلقفها ضعفاء هذه المقاطعة، وهي كمفهوم وجدت لتطبّق على الفقراء والمساكين والمعدمين، أولئك الذين لا يمتلكون حيلة، وليس لهم درع تحميهم أو واسطة أو «ظهر » سياسي. أمّا الأقوياء، الأثرياء وأصحاب النفوذ فلا يمكن المسّ بهم أو الاقتراب منهم! حتى يمكننا القول إن العدالة عندنا تعني اقتصاص الأقوياء لما يبغونه وترك الفضلات للفقراء والمساكين!”
― فايز غازي، Fayez Ghazi, أزهار الموت

“Don't Just

Don't just learn, experience.
Don't just read, absorb.
Don't just change, transform.
Don't just relate, advocate.
Don't just promise, prove.
Don't just criticize, encourage.
Don't just think, ponder.
Don't just take, give.
Don't just see, feel.
Don’t just dream, do.
Don't just hear, listen.
Don't just talk, act.
Don't just tell, show.
Don't just exist, live.”
― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart
