  • Since we are provided with both a body and a mind, we grasp onto the physical forms we see. Since we are provided with both a body and a mind, we cling to the sounds we hear.

Whenever we witness what is on the one side, its opposite side will be in darkness.

It's almost like he thought I had the right to face Voldemort if I could.
