"An online reading experience unlike any other. It's called Pottermore. It's the same story, with a few crucial additions, the most important one, is you. Just as the experience of reading requires that the imaginations of the author and reader work together to create the story so Pottermore will be built, in part, by you, the reader. Pottermore will be the place where fans of any age can share, participate in and rediscover the stories. It will also be the exclusive place to purchase digital audio books, and for the first time, eBooks of the Harry Potter series."(J. K. Rowling)

What makes a man happy?('Happiness' pp. 100-2)
...
"...The things society tells us we must have to be happy -- a new this or that, a bigger house, a better job. I know the falsity of it. I have counselled many people who have all these things, and I can tell you they are not happy because of them.
"The number of marriages that have disintegrated when they had all the stuff in the world. The families who fought and argued all the time, when they had money and health. Having more does not keep you from wanting more. And if you always want more -- to be richer, more beautiful, more well known -- you are missing the bigger picture, and I can tell you from experience, happiness will never come."
...
So, have we solved the secret of happiness?
"I believe so," he said.
Are you going to tell me?
"Yes. Ready?"
Ready.
"Be satisfied."
That's it?
"Be grateful."
That's it?
"For what you have. For the love you receive. And for what God has given to you."
That's it?
He looked me in the eye. Then he sighed deeply.
"That's it."
