what’s got your wand in a knot?

Oh well… I’d just been thinking, if you had died, you’d have been welcome to share my toilet.

Harry Potter Illustrated comes to life pt. 2  (pt.1) 

     Only here’s what I really, really want someone to explain to me. What if one happens to be possessed of a heart that can’t be trusted—? What if the heart, for its own unfathomable reasons, leads one willfully and in a cloud of unspeakable radiance away from health, domesticity, civic responsibility and strong social connections and all the blandly-held common virtues and instead straight toward a beautiful flare of ruin, self-immolation, disaster? Is Kitsey right? If your deepest self is singing and coaxing you straight toward the bonfire, is it better to turn away? Stop your ears with wax? Ignore all the perverse glory your heart is screaming at you? Set yourself on the course that will lead you dutifully towards the norm, reasonable hours and regular medical check-ups, stable relationships and steady career advancement, the New York Times and brunch on Sunday, all with the promise of being somehow a better person? Or—like Boris—is it better to throw yourself head first and laughing into the holy rage calling your name?

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) dir. Alfonso Cuarón

“The world isn’t split into good people and Death Eaters. We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.”

The goblin stroked the sword, and his black eyes roved from Harry, to Hermione, to Ron and then back again. ‘So young,’ he said finally, ‘to be fighting so many.’

it takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
