“Life is too short, Harry. And there's nowhere near enough joy in it. If you find it, grab it. Before it's gone.”

“But as he reached the ground and sprinted towards the dais, Lupin grabbed Harry around the chest, holding him back.There's nothing you can do, Harry -'Get him, save him, he's only just gone through!'- it's too late, Harry.'We can still reach him -' Harry struggled hard and viciously, but Lupin would not let go...There's nothing you can do, Harry...nothing...he's gone.”

“By trying to grab fulfillment everywhere, we find it nowhere.”

“People move too fast and talk too much, and before you know it, they come back to a place they don't want to be - except now they know there's nowhere left to run.”

“Life is too short for anger, resentment, hostility and "should have." It is too short to put off doing what brings you joy. Live each day as if it were your last, because one day it will be.”

“Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.”
