J. K. Rowling quotes
It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case, you fail by default.
J. K. Rowling

J. K. Rowling
Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike.
J. K. Rowling
I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had.
J. K. Rowling
I don't believe in magic, either.
J. K. Rowling
I mean, is ‘fat' really the worst thing a human being can be? Is ‘fat' worse than ‘vindictive', ‘jealous', ‘shallow', ‘vain', ‘boring' or ‘cruel'? Not me.

"Well," I said, slightly nonplussed, "the last time you saw me I'd just had a baby." What I felt like saying was, "I've produced my third child and my sixth novel since I last saw you. Aren't either of those things more important, more interesting, than my size?" But no - my waist looked smaller! Forget the kid and the book: finally, something to celebrate!
J. K. Rowling
I've given you more than I've given anyone else which I probably shouldn't probably say on - on screen, or they'll kidnap and torture him, and we need him.
J. K. Rowling
I've never set out to teach anyone anything. It's been more of an expression of my views and feelings than sitting down and deciding "What is today's message?"

J. K. Rowling
I don't think I've ever wanted magic more.
J. K. Rowling
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
J. K. Rowling
It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.

And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.
J. K. Rowling
Why do I talk about the benefits of failure? Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than what I was, and began to direct all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me.
J. K. Rowling
And the idea of just wandering off to a cafe with a notebook and writing and seeing where that takes me for awhile is just bliss.
J. K. Rowling
The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.
J. K. Rowling
The consequences of our actions are so complicated, so diverse, that predicting the future is a very difficult business indeed.
J. K. Rowling
Fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself.
