A fantastically apposite summation of Robin Cook‘s misjudgement of personal issues while he was Foreign Secretary in Tony Blair‘s New Labour administration. #andrewrawnsley #servantsofthepeole #robincook #hubris #politics #nonfiction #ukpolitics #newlabour #lackofcommonsense #goodmanledastray #history #foreignsecretary

#hpchapteraday Voldy's #hubris is his downfall. Now that he thinks Harry's dead & he has the elder wand, he thinks he's not only immortal bet invincible. He did not learn from Lily's sacrifice; he no longer questions his ownership of the wand; his brief fall after "killing" Harry raises no doubts; he feels he has complete understanding & control-he couldn't be more wrong. Any chance he'll find that remorse Harry advised him about when he moves on?
Voldemort lead to his own downfall. His inability to conceive that a boy could defeat him or he could ever be wrong blinded him and defeated him. #hubris #hpchapteraday @Redjewel_7734
Best line: NOT MY DAUGHTER YOU BITCH

Much #hubris occurs between the image and the quote. Action involving Neville (yay), giants and centaurs (woo hoo), Molly (girl power), and Gawp (HAGGER!!). But quiet revelatory moments too--master of the elder wand, remorse, and our Severus. The scene with the portraits is almost too much to witness. It's such a perfect closing chapter. Oh, there's one more...
