Unlike a game of Quidditch I’m afraid that getting the snitch doesn’t mean that it’s the end.

You keep going on back to the mundane (if you prefer potions) and transition through to the magical.

You’re going to have to work at it. Nothing is going to be fair; nothing is going to be easy.

I have spent time wallowing so take it from me. DON’T DO IT! You can handle whatever you are given.

The way I like to think of it is that we are chosen for this life.

Circumstances, people, they all mean something and I wouldn’t be here without them.

I could very be an obscurial if things had been different but I am here, a, more or less healthy transfigurist.

With good friends and a family.
