Everything's a song if you listen hard enough. Headphones on, volume up and relax...

I've never met a pun so bad I didn't like it. Then again, I've never met a pun.

If somebody tells you, "this is the way things are, get used to it, you can't change it", don't listen to a word.

If it's crazy but it works, then it's not crazy.

Procrastinators unite!...Tomorrow.

If you want to fend off would-be suitors, just carry a bow and aro.

When life gets you down, just imagine how excited Arthur Weasley would be to meet you.

When you're lost in the darkness, look for the light.

To quote Hamlet, Act III, Scene III, line 87, "No".

War doesn't determine who's right; war determines who's left.

How to translate British: "it's not really what I had in mind" = "what the bloody hell is this?"

A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.

Damn, you just can't trust atoms. They make up everything.

What if you're right and they're wrong?

Cardboard Box Tax: what the Tories will charge the ones they made homeless with the Bedroom Tax.

If at first you don't succeed...well, then, skydiving probably isn't for you.

Don't be afraid to just turn the page. You can always come back to it later. There's a lot more to the book than the bit you're stuck on.

Roses are red, violets are blue. That's what they say, but it just isn't true. Roses are red, and apples are too, but violets are violet, violets aren't blue. An orange is orange, but Greenland's not green. A pinkie's not pink, so what does it mean? To call something blue when it's not, we defile it - but, what the heck, it's hard to rhyme violet.

In the words of the great Doc Brown: "Well, I guess that's everything." Thanks for swinging by :)
