Ap Lab #4 Investigating Osmosis

JKRowling ... chapeau. Dollhouse

Yesterday a friend of mine gave me a link to a speech that JK Rowling (yes, you, that of Harry Potter ) held in 2008 at Harvard, for the beginning of the year academic. I started to feel it and after a few minutes, totally hung from the lips of the woman. Not only is a great speaker, but wrote a speech really touching and inspiring. I guess after all these years when I refused to do so, start to read Harry Potter .
If you want to read the speech and watch the video, the link is this . Worth.


One sentence in particular struck me, and I want to return here to remember: It

is impossible to live without failing at something, Unless you live so cautiously That You Might As Well Have not lived at all - in which case, you fail by default.
(It 's impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live in such a manner cautious, which is like not having lived at all - in which case, it automatically fails.)


ETA: I may have written "Chapéu" and nobody has corrected me? I noticed 5 seconds ago ...
