Still alive

"It’s the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more."

"There are all kinds of courage. It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to our enemies, but just much more to stand up to our friends."

"We must try not to sink beneath our anguish, but battle on."

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

"Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open."

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

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

"It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up."

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

"According to Madam Pomfrey, thoughts could leave deeper scarring than almost anything else."
