It is safe to say that I will forever love all of the Harry Potter books and films. They filled my childhood with great memories and life lessons. Lately, I have noticed a lot of people referencing Harry Potter in the recent events that have involved hate and anger. Harry Potter always had a way of coming across with finding the good in evil, and bringing happiness to dark times. The books taught me to be true to myself, and to always stand up for what is right and good. So, here are a few of many favorite Harry Potter quotes to bring some light and inspiration during a time where many people appear to be in fear. Also, if you haven't seen Harry Potter for some insane reason, read the books and watch the movies!

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin."
