S3E3: John Green on Harry Potter (Quotesfest #2)

Published: June 14, 2020, 9:51 a.m.

Today’s quote is about - not from - one of the Potter books and it comes from John Green, author of Paper Towns


“Harry Potter isn’t real? Oh no! Wait, wait, what do you mean by real? Is this video blog real? Am I real if you can see me and hear me, but only through the internet? Are you real if I can read your comment but I don’t know who you are or what your name is or where you’re from or what you look like or how old you are? I know all of those things about Harry Potter. Maybe Harry Potter’s real and you’re not.”

Today I discuss  how this quote plays with the idea of truth, and how you need to challenge truth that your anxiety is telling you is fixed and certain.
