   Remember the rose!The Lily in each of us.   
      
   "We all have within us something so ineffably precious, so utterly   
   sublime, so inexpressibly supernal that it should make us feel our   
   heart is filled with a swelling balloon..." (as Ms. Rowling puts it).   
      
   Just think: no matter what our physical circumstances, no matter what   
   our role in life or where we live, we have the potential to open our   
   hearts to the Lily within and give birth to Harry.   
      
   Note "potential". The fool wastes his. All elitist bullshit aside :0)
