1. Of all the trees we could’ve hit, we had to get one that hits back.
— Ron Weasley

2. “I seem to remember telling you both that I would have to expel you if you broke any more school rules,” said Dumbledore.
Ron opened his mouth wide in horror.
“Which only goes to show that the best of us must sometimes eat our words,” Dumbledore went on, smiling.

— J. K. Rowling

3. It is our choices, Harry, that show us who we truly are, far more than our abilities.
— Albus Dumbledore

4. “Ginny!” said Mr. Weasley, flabbergasted. “Haven’t I taught you anything? What have I always told you? Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can’t see where it keeps it’s brain?”
— Molly Weasley

5. Harry got a shock the first time he looked in the mirror over the kitchen mantelpiece and it shouted, “Tuck your shirt in, scruffy!”
— J. K. Rowling

6. Oh, well… I’d just been thinking… if you had died, you’d have been welcome to share my toilet.
— Moaning Myrtle

7. Proud? Are you crazy? All those times I could’ve died, and I didn’t manage it? They’ll be furious.
— Harry Potter

8. “Azkaban – the wizard prison, Goyle,” said Malfoy, looking at him in disbelief. “Honestly, if you were any slower, you’d be going backwards.”
— Draco Malfoy

9. His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad,
His hair is as dark as a blackboard.
I wish he was mine, he’s really divine,
The hero who conquered the Dark Lord.

— Singing Valentine (Received by Harry)

10. I will only truly have left this school when none here are loyal to me… Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it.
— Albus Dumbledore

1. Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people’s business.
Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony, and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git.
Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a professor.
Mr. Wormtail bids Professor Snape good day, and advises him to wash his hair, the slimeball.

— The Marauders’ Map

2. The consequences of our actions are always so complicated, so diverse, that predicting the future is a very difficult business indeed.
— Albus Dumbledore

3. You can exist without your soul, you know, as long as your brain and heart are still working. But you’ll have no sense of self anymore, no memory, no… anything. There’s no chance at all of recovery. You’ll just exist. As an empty shell. And your soul is gone forever… lost.
— Remus Lupin

4. You think the dead we loved ever truly leave us? You think that we don’t recall them more clearly than ever in times of great trouble? Your father is alive in you, Harry, and shows himself most plainly when you have need of him. How else could you produce that particular Patronus? Prongs rode again last night.
— Albus Dumbledore

5. And Potter—do try and win, won’t you? Or we’ll be out of the running for the eighth year in a row, as Professor Snape was kind enough to remind me only last night…
— Professor Minerva McGonagall

6. I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.
— J. K. Rowling

7. Your parents gave their lives to keep you alive, Harry. A poor way to repay them – gambling their sacrifice for a bag of magic tricks.
— Remus Lupin

8. Tell them whatever you like. But make it quick, Remus. I want to commit the murder I was imprisoned for.
— Sirius Black

9. Oh, my dear boy, we’re not going to punish you for a little thing like that! It was an accident! We don’t send people to Azkaban just for blowing up their aunts!
— Cornelius Fudge

10. “What was there to be gained by fighting the most evil wizard who has ever existed?” said Black, with a terrible fury in his face. “Only innocent lives, Peter!”
“You don’t understand!” whined Pettigrew. “He would have killed me, Sirius!”
“Then you should have died!” roared Black. “Died rather than betray your friends, as we would have done for you!”

— J. K. Rowling

1. We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.
— Albus Dumbledore

2. He amused himself for a moment, picturing Dumbledore, with his long silver beard, full-length wizard’s robes, and pointed hat, stretched out on a beach somewhere, rubbing suntan lotion onto his long crooked nose.
— J. K. Rowling

3. It is my belief that the truth is generally preferable to lies.
— Albus Dumbledore

4. It was like trying to keep water in his cupped hands; the details were now trickling away as fast as he tried to hold on to them.
— J. K. Rowling

5. Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.
— Albus Dumbledore

6. She would have been nice-looking if she hadn’t been wearing a look that suggested there was a nasty smell under her nose.
— J. K. Rowling

7. Draco Malfoy, The Amazing, Bouncing Ferret.
— Ron Weasley

8. Come out, Harry… come out and play, then… it will be quick… it might even be painless… I would not know… I have never died.
— Voldemort

9. Socks are Dobby’s favorite, favorite clothes, sir! I has seven now, sir… But sir, they has made a mistake in the shop, Harry Potter, they is giving you two the same!
— Dobby the House-Elf

10. Yeah, well, Percy wouldn’t want to work for anyone with a sense of humour, would he? Percy wouldn’t recognise a joke if it danced naked in front of him wearing Dobby’s tea cosy.
— Ron Weasley

1. You… this isn’t a criticism, Harry! But you do… sort of… I mean—don’t you think you’ve got a bit of—a—saving-people thing?
— Hermione Granger

2. Wit beyond measure is a man’s greatest treasure.
— Ravenclaw Motto

3. She seized Dudley by the shoulders and shook him, as though testing to see whether she could hear his soul rattling around inside him.
— J. K. Rowling

4. You know, Minister, I disagree with Dumbledore on many counts… but you cannot deny he’s got style…
— Phineas Nigellus

5. Just because you have the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn’t mean we all have.
— Hermione Granger

6. Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike.
— Albus Dumbledore

7. Of course, he might have crawled into the airing cupboard and died… but I mustn’t get my hopes up.
— Sirius Black

8. You’re the one who is weak. You will never know love or friendship. And I feel sorry for you.
— Harry Potter

9. We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.
— Sirius Black

10. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young and I seem to have forgotten, lately.
— Albus Dumbledore

1. The Aurors are part of the Rotfang Conspiracy, I thought everyone knew that. They’re working from within to bring down the Ministry of Magic with a combination of dark magic and gum disease.
— Luna Lovegood

2. What do I care how he looks? I am good-looking enough for both of us, I theenk! All these scars show is zat my husband is brave!
— Fleur Delacour

3. Voldemort himself created his worst enemy, just as tyrants everywhere do! Have you any idea how much tyrants fear the people they oppress? All of them realize that, one day, amongst their many victims, there is sure to be one who rises against them and strikes back!
— Albus Dumbledore

4. Sometimes you remind me a lot of James. He called it my ‘furry little problem’ in company. Many people were under the impression that I owned a badly behaved rabbit.
— Remus Lupin

5. It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew — and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents — that there was all the difference in the world.
— J. K. Rowling

6. Dumbledore says people find it far easier to forgive others for being wrong than being right.
— Hermione Granger

8. It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more.
— Albus Dumbledore

8. Harry was left to ponder in silence the depths to which girls would sink to get revenge.
— J. K. Rowling

9. It was important, Dumbledore said, to fight, and fight again, and keep fighting, for only then could evil be kept at bay, though never quite eradicated.
— J. K. Rowling

10. Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.
— Albus Dumbledore

1. Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?
— Albus Dumbledore

2. Not my daughter, you bitch!
— Molly Weasley

3. We’re all human, aren’t we? Every human life is worth the same, and worth saving.
— Kingsley Shacklebolt

4. So young, to be fighting so many.
— Griphook

5. Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.
— Albus Dumbledore

6. I don’t think you’re a waste of space…You saved my life.
— Dudley Dursley

7. I have been careless, and so have been thwarted by luck and chance, those wreckers of all but the best laid plans.
— Lord Voldemort

8. I’ll join you when hell freezes over! Dumbledore’s Army!
— Neville Longbottom

9. “After all this time?”
“Always,” said Snape.

— Professor Severus Snape

10. It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it.
— Albus Dumbledore

1. Hagrid: You’re a wizard, Harry!
Harry: I’m a what?

— Harry Potter, Harry Potter & The Philosopher’s Stone

2. Hermione: Now if you two don’t mind, I’m going to bed before either of you come up with another clever idea to get us killed – or worse, expelled.
Ron: She needs to sort out her priorities!

— Ron Weasley, Harry Potter & The Philosopher’s Stone

3. Not to be rude or anything, but this isn’t a great time for me to have a house elf in my bedroom.
— Harry Potter, Harry Potter & The Chamber of Secrets

4. It is not our abilities that show what we truly are. It is our choices.
— Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter & The Chamber of Secrets

5. Is that really what my hair looks like from the back?
— Hermione Granger, Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban

6. [About Krum] Ruddy pumpkin head, isn’t he?
— Ron Weasley, Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire

7. You’re a fool, Harry Potter, and you will lose everything.
— Lord Voldemort, Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix

8. Times like these, dark times, they do funny things to people. They can tear them apart.
— Arthur Weasley, Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince

9. This is beyond anything I have imagined.
— Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince

10. Only I can live forever.
— Lord Voldemort, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I

1. And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.
— J. K. Rowling

2. We do not need magic to change the world, we carry all the power we need inside ourselves already: we have the power to imagine better.
— J. K. Rowling

3. As is a tale, so is life, not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.
— J. K. Rowling

4. The wizards represent all that the true ‘muggle’ most fears: They are plainly outcasts and comfortable with being so. Nothing is more unnerving to the truly conventional than the unashamed misfit!
— J. K. Rowling

5. I bumped into a woman I hadn’t seen for nearly three years. The first thing she said to me? ’You’ve lost a lot of weight!’ ‘Well, the last time you saw me I’d just had a baby.’ What I felt like saying was, ’I’ve produced my third child and my sixth novel since I last saw you.’ But no — my waist looked smaller! Forget the kid and the book: finally, something to celebrate!
— J. K. Rowling

6. It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case, you fail by default.
— J. K. Rowling

7. I’ve never set out to teach anyone anything. It’s been more of an expression of my views and feelings than sitting down and deciding ‘What is today’s message?’ And I do think that, although I never, again, sat down consciously and thought about this, I do think judging, even for my own daughter, that children respond to that than to ‘thought for the day.’
— J. K. Rowling

8. Part of what makes a language “alive” is its constant evolution. […] I love editing “Harry” with Arthur Levine, my American editor — the differences between “British English” (of which there must be at least 200 versions) and “American English” (ditto!) are a source of constant interest and amusement to me.
— J. K. Rowling

9. I always advise children who ask me for tips on being a writer to read as much as they possibly can. Jane Austen gave a young friend the same advice, so I’m in good company there.
— J. K. Rowling

10. I’ve no idea where ideas come from and I hope I never find out, it would spoil the excitement for me if it turned out I just have a funny little wrinkle on the surface of my brain which makes me think about invisible train platforms.
— J. K. Rowling

11. Those who choose not to empathize enable real monsters, for without ever committing an act of outright evil ourselves we collude with it through our apathy.
— J. K. Rowling

12. [On Fame] One of my regrets would be that I will never again have the pleasure of sneaking into a cafe, any cafe I like, sitting down and diving into my world and no one knowing what I am doing and no one bothering about me and being totally anonymous, that was fantastic.
— J. K. Rowling

13. Probably the very best thing my earnings have given me is absense of worry. I have not forgotten what it feels like to worry whether you’ll have enough to pay the bills. Not to have to think about that any more is the biggest luxury in the world.
— J. K. Rowling

14. Bigotry is probably the thing I detest most. […] I really like to explore the idea that difference is equal and good. Oppressed groups are not, generally speaking, people who stand firmly together — no, sadly, they kind of subdivide among themselves and fight like hell. That’s human nature, so that’s what you see here. This world of wizards and witches, they’re already ostracized, and then within themselves, they’ve formed a loathsome pecking order.
— J. K. Rowling

15. I love freakish names and I have always been interested in folk lore and I think it was a logical thing for me to end up writing even though it came so suddenly.
— J. K. Rowling

16. As you stand on the threshold of what is sometimes called “real life”, I want to extoll the crucial importance of imagination.
— J. K. Rowling

17. Half my lifetime ago, I was striking an uneasy balance between the ambition I had for myself and what those closest to me expected of me.
— J. K. Rowling

18. There is an expiry date on blaming your parents for steering you in the wrong direction.
— J. K. Rowling

19. I imagined being a famous writer would be like being Jane Austen, being able to sit at home in the parsonage and your books would be very famous.
— J. K. Rowling

20. Writing for me is a kind of compulsion, so I don’t think anyone could have made me do it, or prevented me from doing it.
— J. K. Rowling

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Mirror of Erised," Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, 1997, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

After all, to the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Man with Two Faces," Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, 1997, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

As much money and life as you could want! The two things most human beings would choose above all - the trouble is, humans do have a knack of choosing precisely those things that are worst for them. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Man with Two Faces," Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, 1997, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can't see where it keeps its brain. ~J.K. Rowling, "Dobby's Reward," Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, 1999, spoken by the character Arthur Weasley

It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities. ~J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, 1999, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light. ~Steven Kloves (screenplay), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, 2004, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

In dreams, we enter a world that's entirely our own. ~Steven Kloves (screenplay), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, 2004, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Hungarian Horntail," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000

I say there are spots that don't come off... Spots that never come off, d'you know what I mean? ~J.K. Rowling, "The Egg and The Eye," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Mad-Eye Moody

Nothing like a nighttime stroll to give you ideas. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Egg and The Eye," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Mad-Eye Moody

If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals. ~J.K. Rowling, "Padfoot Returns," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Sirius Black

I sometimes find, and I am sure you know the feeling, that I simply have too many thoughts and memories crammed into my mind... At these times... I use the Pensieve. One simply siphons the excess thoughts from one's mind, pours them into the basin, and examines them at one's leisure. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Pensieve," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Curiosity is not a sin... But we should exercise caution with our curiosity... yes, indeed. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Pensieve," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Parting of the Ways," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

You place too much importance... on the so-called purity of blood! You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be! ~J.K. Rowling, "The Parting of the Ways," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

It is my belief... that the truth is generally preferable to lies. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Beginning," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Beginning," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

There was no point in worrying yet... what would come, would come... and he would have to meet it when it did. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Beginning," Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, 2000

According to Madam Pomfrey, thoughts could leave deeper scarring than almost anything else... ~J.K. Rowling, "The Second War Begins," Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, 2003

No, I think I'll just go down and have some pudding and wait for it all to turn up... It always does in the end. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Second War Begins," Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, 2003, spoken by the character Luna Lovegood

Time is making fools of us again. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Secret Riddle," Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

We must try not to sink beneath our anguish, Harry, but battle on. ~J.K. Rowling, "A Sluggish Memory," Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew - and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents - that there was all the difference in the world. ~J.K. Rowling, "Horcruxes," Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005

It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Cave," Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, 2005, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Dawn seemed to follow midnight with indecent haste. ~J.K. Rowling, "Magic is Might," Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 2007

Harry found the hot drink as welcome as the firewhisky had been on the night that Mad-Eye had died; it seemed to burn away a little of the fear fluttering in his chest. ~J.K. Rowling, "The Thief," Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 2007

"That old berk," muttered Aberforth, taking another swig of mead. "Thought the sun shone out of my brother's every orifice, he did." ~J.K. Rowling, "The Missing Mirror," Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 2007

It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well. ~J.K. Rowling, "King's Cross," Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 2007, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real? ~J.K. Rowling, "King's Cross," Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 2007, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore

"I don't know who Maxime thinks she's kidding. If Hagrid's half-giant, she definitely is. Big bones... the only thing that's got bigger bones than her is a dinosaur."

"Pity you can't attach an extra arm to yours [broom, Malfoy. Then it could catch the Snitch for you."

"I don't go looking for trouble. Trouble usually finds me."

"Are you insane? Of course I want to leave the Dursleys! Have you got a house? When can I move in?"

"Voldemort uses people his enemies are close to. He's already used you as bait once, and that was just because you're my best friend's sister. Think how much danger you'll be in if we keep this up. He'll know, he'll find out. He'll try and get to me through you."

"He was my mum and dad's best friend. He's a convicted murderer, but he's broken out of wizard prison and he's on the run. He likes to keep in touch with me, though...keep up with news...check if I'm happy..."

"Brilliant! It's Potions last thing on Friday! Snape won't have the time to poison us all!"

"Yeah, Quirrell was a great teacher. There was just that minor drawback of him having Lord Voldemort sticking out of the back of his head!"

"Well, I had one that I was playing Quidditch the other night," said Ron, screwing up his face in an effort to remember. "What do you think that means?"
"Probably that you're going to be eaten by a giant marshmallow or something," said Harry, turning the pages of The Dream Oraclewithout interest.

"And Harry said last night," retorted Ron, "if it means we're supposed to get matey with the Slytherins, fat chance."
"Well, I think it's a pity we're not trying for a bit of inter-House unity," said Hermione crossly.
They had reached the foot of the marble staircase. A line of fourth-year Ravenclaws was crossing the entrance hall; they caught sight of Harry and hurried to form a tighter group, as though frightened he might attack stragglers.
"Yeah, we really ought to be trying to make friends with people like that," said Harry sarcastically.

"Harry, don't go picking a row with Malfoy, don't forget, he's a prefect now, he could make life difficult for you..."
"Wow, I wonder what it'd be like to have a difficult life?" said Harry sarcastically.

"How long have you been 'Big D' then?" said Harry.
"Shut it," snarled Dudley, turning away again.
"Cool name," said Harry, grinning, "but you'll always be Ickle Diddykins to me."
"Shut your face."
"You don't tell her [Aunt Petunia] to shut her face. What about 'popkin' and 'Dinky Diddydums,' can I use them then?"

"Listen, if you [Fred and George] don't take it [the gold, I'm throwing it down the drain. I don't want it and I don't need it. But I could do with a few laughs. We could all do with a few laughs. I've got a feeling we're going to need them more than usual before long."

"You can't give a Dementor the old one-two!"

"Why were you lurking under our window?"
"Yes -- yes, good point, Petunia! What were you doing under our windows, boy?"
"Listening to the news," said Harry in a resigned voice.
His aunt and uncle exchanged looks of outrage.
"Listening to the news! Again?"
"Well, it changes every day, you see," said Harry.

"Er -- thanks very much, Ernie," said Harry, taken aback. Ernie might be pompous on occasions like these, but Harry was in a mood to deeply appreciate a vote of confidence from somebody who was not wearing radishes in their ears.

"Proud?" said Harry. "Are you crazy? All those times I could've died, and I didn't manage it? They'll be furious..."

"Cut it out," he said firmly, rubbing the scar as the pain receded again. "First sign of madness, talking to your own head," said a sly voice from the empty picture on the wall.

"You know your mother, Malfoy? The expression on her face - like she's got dung under her nose? Is she like that all the time or just because you were with her?"

"He [Dumbledore] will only be gone from the school when none are loyal to him."

"It's just hard," Harry said finally, in a low voice, "to realize he won't write me again."

"I realised I can’t shut myself away or crack up. It could be me next, couldn’t it? But if it is, I’ll make sure I take as many Death Eaters with me as I can and Voldemort too, if I can manage it."

"Snape killed Dumbledore."

"Dumbledore's man through and through," said Harry. "That's right."

"Wow... look at that... he's not here now! So why not have a go? They might be able to find you a double cell in Azkaban with your loser of a husband!"

"Well, think back," said Harry. "Have you ever let it slip that you'd like to go out in public with the words 'My Sweetheart' round your neck?"

"Warrington's aim's so pathetic I'd be more worried if he was aiming for the person next to me."

"She's Ron's sister.
But she's ditched Dean!
She's still Ron's sister.
I'm his best mate!
That'll make it worse.
If I talked to him first-
He'd hit you.
What if I don't care?
He's your best mate!"

[To Mundungus] "What did you do, go back the night he died and strip the place?"

"I like a quiet life, you know me."

"And they'd [the Death Eaters] love to have me," said Harry sarcastically. "We'd be best pals if they didn't keep trying to do me in."

"SHE KILLED SIRIUS! SHE KILLED HIM -- I'LL KILL HER!"

"They don't know know we're not allowed to use magic at home. I'm going to have a lot of fun with Dudley this summer..."

"There's no need to call me sirProfessor."

"Do you think -- do you think I give a -- I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO SAY!" Harry roared. "I don't want to hear anything you've got to say!"

"SO WHAT?" Harry shouted. "Don't you understand? If Snape gets hold of the stone, Voldemort's coming back! Haven't you heard what it was like when he was trying to take over? There won't be any Hogwarts to get expelled from! He'll flatten it, or turn it into a school for the Dark Arts! Losing points doesn't matter anymore, can't you see? D'you think he'll leave you and your families alone if Gryffindor wins the house cup? If I get caught before I can get to the stone, well, I'll have to go back to the Dursleys and wait for Voldemort to find me there, it's only dying a bit later than I would have, because I'm never going over to the Dark Side! I'm going through that trapdoor tonight and nothing you two say is going to stop me! Voldemort killed my parents, remember?"

"Yeah, and others might say it's your duty to check that people really are Death Eaters before you chuck them in prison," said Harry, his temper rising now. "You're doing what Barty Crouch did. You never get it right, you people, do you? Either we've got Fudge, pretending everything's lovely while people get murdered right under his nose, or we've got you, chucking the wrong people into jail and trying to pretend you've got 'the Chosen One' working for you!"

"No, it was honest," said Harry. "One of the only honest things you've said to me. You don't care whether I live or die, but you do care that I help you convince everyone you're winning the war against Voldemort."

"You can try," said Harry indifferently. "But you seem cleverer than Fudge, so I'd have thought you'd have learned from his mistakes. He tried interfering at Hogwarts. You might have noticed he's not Minister anymore, but Dumbledore's still headmaster. I'd leave Dumbledore alone, if I were you."

"I'm going to Hagrid's, I've got a good feeling about going to Hagrid's."

"This is night, Diddykins. That's what we call it when it goes all dark like this."
