Why is it, when something happens, it is always you three?
– Professor Minerva McGonagall
Believe me, Professor. I’ve been asking myself the same question for six years.
– Ron Weasley
Harry!
– Horace Slughorn
Sir!
– Harry Potter
Ah! See? He senses my presence.
– Lavender Brown
Don’t worry, Won-Won! I’m here. I’m here.
– Lavender Brown
Her… my… nee. Hermione…
– Ron Weasley
Oh, to be young and to feel love’s keen sting.
– Albus Dumbledore
Seriously misunderstood creatures, spiders are. It’s the eyes, I reckon, they unnerve some folk.
– Rubeus Hagrid
Not to mention the pincers…
– Harry Potter
It was a student who gave me Francis. One Spring afternoon I discovered a bowl on my desk, just a few inches of clear water in it. Floating on the surface was a flower petal. As I washed, it sank. Just when it reached the bottom, it transformed into a wee fish. It was beautiful magic, wondrous to the behold. The flower petal had come from a lily, your mother. The day I came downstairs, the day the bowl was empty, was the day your mother…
– Horace Slughorn
Be brave, Professor. Be brave like my mother… Otherwise, you disgrace her. Otherwise, she died for nothing. Otherwise, the bowl will remain empty… forever.
– Harry Potter
You’ve just earned yourself detention for a month, McClaggen.
– Severus Snape
Snape! He trusted you!
– Harry Potter
Potter, take Weasley with you. He looks far too happy over there.
– Professor Minerva McGonagall
Ah, Harry… you need a shave, my friend.
– Albus Dumbledore
That can stay hidden up here too, if you like.
– Ginny Weasley
So, did you and Ginny do it, then?
– Ron Weasley
What?
– Harry Potter
You know, hide the book?
– Ron Weasley
Oh… yeah.
– Harry Potter
Exactly how did you get out of the castle, Harry?
– Horace Slughorn
Through the front door sir.
– Harry Potter
Are you and her…?
– Albus Dumbledore
Oh no, no, no. I mean, she’s brilliant, but we’re friends.
– Harry Potter
I’ve never been to this part of the castle. Well, not awake. I sleepwalk, you see. That’s why I wear shoes to bed.
– Luna Lovegood
You heard Snape say he’s made an Unbreakable Vow?
– Ron Weasley
Yes. What does it mean?
– Harry Potter
Well, you can’t break an Unbreakable Vow!
– Ron Weasley
I worked that much out for myself, funny enough.
– Harry Potter
Mr. Davis! Mr. Davis, that is the girls’ lavatory.
– Professor Minerva McGonagall
Harry! I must insist you accompany me back to the castle immediately!
– Horace Slughorn
That would be counterproductive, sir!
– Harry Potter
What makes you say that?
– Horace Slughorn
No idea!
– Harry Potter
But, Sir, I thought we weren’t allowed to apparate on Hogwarts’ grounds.
– Harry Potter
Well, being me… has its privileges.
– Albus Dumbledore
