| | |  New quote from J.K.Rowling interview
A new quote from the interview with J.K.Rowling (that will air on BBC Radio 4 on December 10th at 9AM) has been revealed through The Scotsman. Quote:
"We need to feel fear and we need to confront fear in a controlled environment, and that's a very important part of growing up. The child that has been protected from the Dementors in fiction, I would argue, is much less likely to fall prey to them later in life in reality."

Whoa! Really good quote I must say.
__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

Dementors are a representation of depression, if I remember rightly. What she's saying is definitely metaphoric and I agree with her.

I really do love her because not only does she write fantastic books, but she trusts kids to know more than we usually get credit for and able to handle more mature topics. If you trap kids in a land of happiness all the time and never expose then to fears and problems, they'll never know how to handle them and will end up sheltered and overwhelmed out in the world. | |

So then what you're saying is that it's okay to scare kids then, right? *Ottery being a meanie* Mwahahahahahahahaha...now I don't feel so bad about picking on my little brothers...Mwahahahahahaha
I was just getting them ready for the real world dementors... My favorite was the ghost train from well you know where, piloted by the devil that would come out on Halloween and take you away... my little brother still remembers that.

If she does write another book that's not Harry Potter then of course she will have to use a different name otherwise people would read it because she wrote it!!! ...she does sound a bit like Harry...

I really love how J.K. Rowling always seems to mean something but say it in her own way to make you think. She is by far the most awesome author of our time.
