J.K. Rowling Speaks at Harvard Commencement

"poverty itself is romanticized only by fools" - J.K. Rowling


This is a video taken from Harvard University Commencement last June 5, 2008.

I was browsing some of the old stuff that I collected from the internet and found this.
Let me just share to you this once more.  She really inspired me and am now a great fan of Harry Potter.

Some of her words..

...benefits of failure...

..the only thing i wanted to do ever was write novels..
..never pay a mortgage or secure a pension..


.. strong will .. 
... discipline ...
... friendship ...

... not how long it is but how good it is, is what matters ...
