Music is what feelings sound like.

No one will weave dreams for me – it is my turn to weave dreams for others. That’s what I have to do. Such dreams may have no power, but if my own life is to have any meaning at all, that is what I have to do.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in, forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day, you shall begin it well and serenely

Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings.

Harry Potter is about doing what is right in the face of adversity. Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend.

My idea of a perfect weekend, but minus the cat. 

To acquire the habit of reading is to construct for yourself a refuge from almost all the miseries of life.

My books are my refuge.

Fourteen years ago today, the magic began.

30th June, 1997: The first ever edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was released.

I still remembered that day at the bookstore, i laid my eyes on the book , and skeptically thought: “how can this book about a wizard boy sitting on the best seller rack?”. My curiosity got me and I ended up taking one home with me. In the end, it turned out to be one of my best reads of all time.

But even more, I still remembered that day when I finally had in my hand the newly-released final book of the series, inhaling deeply the sweet scent of the hard cover pages. Bittersweet feeling was in my heart: so glad that I would be able to know what happened to the Boy with Scarred Forehead, but also so sad that beyond it, it would be no more.

Potter more, Jo?

LIKE is a watered-down love.
Like is mediocre.
Like is the wishy-washy emotion of the content.
Athletes don’t do it for the like of a sport.
Artists don’t suffer for the like of art. There’s is no I like NY T-shirt.
And Romeo didn’t just like Juliet.

LOVE. Now that’s a powerful thing. Love changes things.
Upsets things. Conquers things.
Love is the root of everything good that has ever happened and will ever happen.
Love what you do.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Weekends are a bit like rainbows; they look good from a distance but disappear when you get up close to them.

I need a pick-me-up. Feels like hiding under a blanket.
