I love the Ghandi quote which appears in the book "Peace: The Words and Inspiration of Mahatma Gandhi" by Mahatma Gandhi (page 35) in a slightly different form:
"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."
Although many people (including me) have used it the way you typed it. One other thing: you spelled Gandhi correctly. ;-)

They are both good, but the one from Gandhi is far more unusual and provocative.
Rowling's statement is fairly conventional wisdom, and it doesn't necessarily represent much of a challenge. But if you live by what Gandhi said, you always have to measure your words, deeds, and attitudes against what you profess to believe.

I think the Ghandi quote is overworked. I see it everywhere.
That's just my opinion, though. If the quote speaks for who you are and what you embrace, go for it.
