I need to buy two pairs of glasses.

One, to wear out.

And one to wear in bed and fall asleep in and who cares if I damage the frames.

Walmart: Let's buy 30 cash registers and only keep two open

The moment when Harry takes Draco's wand

J. K. Rowling: I said to Arthur, my American editor - we had an interesting conversation during the editing of seven - the moment when Harry takes Draco's wand, Arthur said, God, that's the moment when the ownership of the Elder wand is actually transferred? And I said, that's right. He said, shouldn't that be a bit more dramatic? And I said, no, not at all, the reverse. I said to Arthur, I think it really puts the elaborate, grandiose plans of Dumbledore and Voldemort in their place. That actually the history of the wizarding world hinged on two teenage boys wrestling with each other. They weren't even using magic. It became an ugly little corner tussle for the possession of wands. And I really liked that - that very human moment, as opposed to these two wizards who were twitching strings and manipulating and implanting information and husbanding information and guarding information, you know? Ultimately it just came down to that, a little scuffle and fistfight in the corner and pulling a wand away.
Melissa Anelli: It says a lot about the world at large, I think, about conflict in the world, it's these little things -
J. K. Rowing: And the difference one individual can make. Always, the difference one individual can make.

Excuse me, but you want me to be on Bragg and dressed in formal business clothes by 0730? 

You don’t pay me. Let me sleep.

If you are writing your will, a word of advice…

jasonviola:

Do not keep your will a secret.

Do not store your secret will in a safe deposit box that is registered with a fake name.

Do not tape the key to your anonymous safe deposit box to a random page in a notebook.

Do not hide your notebook inside of a clock.

Do not expect anyone to discover that you had a secret will, risk getting kidnapped in order to steal your clock to break it open and find the key inside of your dumb notebook. Nancy Drew does not live in your town.
