“I've never been one of the cool people at school, but then again, I don't get the people who are cool. It's not that I don't like them, it's just that they don't interest me.”

“Go boldly and honestly through the world. Learn to love the fact that there is nobody else quite like you.”

“I think honesty is the most heroic quality one can aspire to.”

“A hero is also someone who, in their day to day interactions with the world, despite all the pain, uncertainty and doubt that can plague us, is resiliently and unashamedly themselves. If you can wake up every day and be emotionally open and honest regardless of what you get back from the world then you can be the hero of your own story. Each and every person who can say that despite life’s various buffetings that they are proud to be the person they are is a hero. Now I do have to mention the real heroes of The Trevor Project, the men and women volunteers, all of whom stand up day after day answering the calls of desperate teens whose circumstances have pushed them to the edge of the abyss. To take that call, and say yes, I will be the one who saves this life takes such courage and compassion. Hemingway’s definition of ‘grace under pressure’ seems fitting as the job they do is every bit as important, and every bit as delicate as a soldier defusing a bomb.”

“I think I'm a tiny bit like Harry 'cos I'd like to have an owl. Yeah, that's the tiny bit, actually.”

“Being in Harry Potter is like being in the Mafia. Once you are in, you are never really out.”

“There's no shame in enjoying the quiet life.”

“I’m an atheist, and a militant atheist when religion starts impacting on legislation.”

“I used to be self conscious about my height, but then I thought, fuck that, I'm Harry Potter.”

“I'm not clumsy; just accident prone.”
