I never guessed it would be an obsessive many

“The funny thing is that I did always think that, if it ever did get published, it was a book for obsessives….. And I did think if people liked it they would probably like it obsessively…. but I thought that it would be an obsessive few – I never guessed it would be an obsessive many.”

— J. K. Rowling "Launch Day interview aboard the Hogwarts Express," Bloomsbury Press, July 8, 2000 (HEB)
