21 Best Quotes From Harry Potter
Harry Potter Wikia

In 1997, the first book was published of a series that would find a home in people's hearts. J.K Rowling released an incredible story telling tales of dragons, feasts, dark forests, flying cars, moving trees, and a game called Quidditch. We decided which house we should be sorted into: Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Gryffindor. We fell in love with her characters: Severus Snape, Albus Dumbledore, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, and Harry Potter. We defeated Voldemort... and Dolores Umbridge. Harry Potter will forever be in our hearts and minds: "Of course it's happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean it's not real." Here are some quotes that will be in our hearts, always...

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

2. "Not my daughter, you bitch." Mrs. Weasley

3. "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live." Albus Dumbledore

4. "You may not like him, Minister, but you can't deny: Dumbledore's got style." Kingsley Shacklebolt

5. "It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." Albus Dumbledore

6." If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals." Sirius Black

7. "Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn't mean we all have." Hermione Granger

8. "Oh well, what's life without a few dragons?" Ron Weasley

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

10. "Books! And cleverness! There are more important things, Friendship and bravery." Hermione Grange

11. "You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be." Albus Dumbledore

12. "Anything's possible if you've got enough nerve." Ginny Weasley

13. "Fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself." Albus Dumbledore

14. "To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure." Albus Dumbledore

15. "We've all got both light and dark inside of us. What matters is the part we choose to act on, that's who we really are." Sirius Black

16. "What's comin' will come, an' we'll meet it when it does." Rubeus Hagrid

17. "We must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy." Albus Dumbledore

18. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."

19. "Harry- yer a wizard." Hagrid

20. "After all this time? Always." Severus Snape

21. "The stores we love best live in us forever." J.K. Rowling

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
