Being a best-selling author just means the world for me. Some of my happiest memories, growing up, are being at book stores and reading books I couldn't afford, as a kid, and the midnight parties, waiting for the next Harry Potter book. The fact that I have that straw in my cap means more to me than anything I've ever accomplished before.

Courage is one thing that no one can ever take away from you.

I love thinking that there is magic in the world, that there are people in the world with amazing abilities that we just don't know about.

I could never rap, personally. I can't even wrap presents.

I don't know much, But when push comes to shove, I definitely don't believe, There's such a thing as wrong love.

I can sing and dance. I can smile - a lot.

What grinds me the most is that we’re sending kids out into the world who don’t know how to balance a checkbook, don’t know how to apply for a loan, don’t even know how to properly fill out a job application, but because they know the quadratic formula we consider them prepared for the world?
