Είναι οι επιλογές μας που δείχνουν πολύ πιο ξεκάθαρα από τις ικανότητές μας ποιοι είμαστε πραγματικά.

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

Very early on in writing the series, I remember a female journalist saying to me that Mrs Weasley, 'Well, you know, she’s just a mother.' And I was absolutely incensed by that comment. Now, I consider myself to be a feminist, and I’d always wanted to show that just because a woman has made a choice, a free choice to say, 'Well, I’m going to raise my family and that’s going to be my choice. I may go back to a career, I may have a career part time, but that’s my choice.' Doesn’t mean that that’s all she can do. And as we proved there in that little battle, Molly Weasley comes out and proves herself the equal of any warrior on that battlefield.

We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.”

It is our choices... that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

As much money and life as you could want! The two things most human beings would choose above all - the trouble is, humans do have a knack of choosing precisely those things that are worst for them.
