Quote by J.K. Rowling

Because to confide a part of your soul to something that can think and move for itself is obviously a very risky business.

Because to confide a part of your soul to something that can

Summary

This quote underscores the inherent vulnerability and risk involved in entrusting another being with a piece of our utmost personal selves. It suggests that when we share and confide our deepest emotions, thoughts, or secrets with something that possesses independent thought and action, there is the potential for both positive outcomes and negative consequences. This could refer to confiding in a person who can potentially betray or misuse the information, or even an inanimate object like a journal, which can "think" by retaining our thoughts and "move for itself" by potentially being discovered or taken.

Between France and Senegal there's a history. There's a language that we both speak. There's a culture that we share and to which both of our peoples have contributed. But beyond our history, beyond our language, beyond the links that have united us for so long, what unites us today is the future.

Every day people are born and people die. Human beings come

Every day people are born and people die. Human beings come into this world and leave it - most without their names being immortalized in any history books. Millions of people have lived and worked and loved and died without making any great claims to fame or fortune. But they aren't forgotten - not by their friends, not by their families. And some of these people, some very special people, are not forgotten even by those who harldy knew them.
