10 Of The Best Albus Dumbledore Quotes
Quirky Byte

Albus Dumbledore, the wisest and all around greatest character ever created. I've always had a special place in my heart for the Harry Potter books/movies and Albus Dumbledore may be that reason why. He is the most powerful wizard ever, headmaster of Hogwarts and he hits you right in the feels with his amazing quotes/words of advice.

1. "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live."

This comes from the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Not only great advice but it is very true as well. Constantly dreaming of what could be won't make it happen. YOU make it happen.

2. "It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be."

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is where this meaningful quote was said. I think this is a very important statement and with how everything is in the world lately, it needs to be reminded.

3. "People find it easier to forgive others for being wrong than being right."

Preach Dumbledore, preach. Thanks for being the one to say it in, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

4. "You think the dead we loved truly ever leave us? You think we don't recall them more clearly in times of great trouble?"

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. This quote may be very meaningful to people who have lost someone very close to them. It seems once in trouble is when we need our loved ones the most.

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

This quote was apart of the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Ever since the first book Dumbledore has been making us realize things we sometimes don't seem to.

6. "Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open."

Yeah Trump...Dumbledore is talking to you. Courtesy of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

7. "Soon we must all face the choice between what is right, and what is easy."

One of my favorite quotes from yet again Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (also my favorite movie).

8. "Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean it not real?"

Dumbledore wrapped up his famous lines with this one from, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

9. "Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living and above all, those who live without love."

Very important message. What is a life without love...Another quote he ended with in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

10. "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."

Saved the best for last! I look to this a lot in life, actually all I have to do is look down to my arm because I love this quote so much I actually got it tattooed on me! This one comes from another one of my favorites, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
