“The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Simone Weil
“All sins are attempts to fill voids.”
Simone Weil

J.K. Rowling
“He accused me of being Dumbledore's man through and through."
"How very rude of him."
"I told him I was."
Dumbledore opened his mouth to speak and then closed it again. Fawkes the phoenix let out a low, soft, musical cry. To Harry's intense embarrassment, he suddenly realized that Dumbledore's bright blue eyes looked rather watery, and stared hastily at his own knee. When Dumbledore spoke, however, his voice was quite steady.
"I am very touched, Harry.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Homer
“For a friend with an understanding heart is worth no less than a brother”
Homer, The Odyssey
