“Well, we were always going to fail that one," said Ron gloomily as they ascended the marble staircase. He had just made Harry feel rather better by telling him how he told the examiner in detail about the ugly man with a wart on his nose in the crystal ball, only to look up and realize he had been describing the examiner's reflection.”
Quote by -J K Rowling
“Curiosity is not a sin.... But we should exercise caution with our curiosity... yes, indeed.”
Quote by -J K Rowling

Quote by -J K Rowling
“Autumn seemed to arrive suddenly that year. The morning of the first September was crisp and golden as an apple.”
Quote by -J K Rowling
“It’s in our biology to trust what we see with our eyes. This makes living in a carefully edited, overproduced and photoshopped world very dangerous.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Who we are and how we engage with the world are much stronger predictors of how our children will do than what we know about parenting.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Until we can receive with an open heart, we’re never really giving with an open heart. When we attach judgment to receiving help, we knowingly or unknowingly attach judgment to giving help.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Even to me the issue of “stay small, sweet, quiet, and modest” sounds like an outdated problem, but the truth is that women still run into those demands whenever we find and use our voices.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“The universe is not short on wake-up calls. We’re just quick to hit the snooze button.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Shame works like the zoom lens on a camera. When we are feeling shame, the camera is zoomed in tight and all we see is our flawed selves, alone and struggling.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“I only share when I have no unmet needs that I’m trying to fill. I firmly believe that being vulnerable with a larger audience is only a good idea if the healing is tied to the sharing, not to the expectations I might have for the response I get.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“What’s the greater risk? Letting go of what people think – or letting go of how I feel, what I believe, and who I am?”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“I want to be in the arena. I want to be brave with my life. And when we make the choice to dare greatly, we sign up to get our as*es kicked. We can choose courage or we can choose comfort, but we can’t have both. Not at the same time.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“Vulnerability is about showing up and being seen. It’s tough to do that when we’re terrified about what people might see or think.”
Quote by -Brené Brown
“One thing I can tell you is you have to be free. Come together, right now, over me.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“You know the way people begin to look like their dogs? Well, we’re beginning to look like each other.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“The thing the sixties did was to show us the possibilities and the responsibility that we all had. It wasn’t the answer. It just gave us a glimpse of the possibility.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“…Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I don’t know what will go first, rock ‘n’ roll or Christianity. We’re more popular than Jesus now. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It’s them twisting it that ruins it for me.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“Sometimes you wonder, I mean really wonder. I know we make our own reality, and we always have a choice, but how much is preordained? Is there always a fork in the road, and are there two preordained paths that are equally preordained? There could be hundreds of paths where one could go this way or that way — there’s a chance, and it’s very strange sometimes.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“Peace is not something you wish for; It’s something you make, something you do, something you are, and something you give away.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we’re being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That’s what’s insane about it.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“There’s nothing new under the sun. All the roads lead to Rome. And people cannot provide it for you. I can’t wake you up. You can wake you up. I can’t cure you. You can cure you.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“Being honest may not get you a lot of friends but it’ll always get you the right ones.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“I never went to high school reunions. My thing is, out of sight, out of mind. That’s my attitude toward life. So I don’t have any romanticism about any part of my past.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“Nobody controls me. I’m uncontrollable. The only one who controls me is me, and that’s just barely possible.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“I believe Jesus was right, Buddha was right, and all of those people like that are right. They’re all saying the same thing — and I believe it. I believe what Jesus actually said — the basic things he laid down about love and goodness — and not what people say he said.”
Quote by -John Lennon
“All music is rehash. There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme. Try to tell the kids in the Seventies who were screaming to the Bee Gees that their music was just The Beatles redone. There is nothing wrong with the Bee Gees.”
Quote by -John Lennon
