Favorite Harry Potter Lines

Post by Prof. Maxim Trevelyan »

There are so many great moments in Harry Potter series, be it books or two movie franchises.

Although Harry is not my favorite character at all, I do not even particularly like him, I love some of the sassy lines that he delivers throughout the series:
Snape: "Yes, sir."
Harry: "There's no need to call me "sir" Professor."
“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!”
Umbridge: Potter, do something! Tell them I mean no harm.
Harry: I'm sorry, Professor. But I must not tell lies.

What are some of your favorite lines from the series?

Absolutely, Harry has some great sarcastic moments. I love his cheeky lines. I think one of my favourites from him was:
“Listening to the news! Again?”
“Well, it changes every day, you see,” said Harry.

Some of my favorite lines are Ronald Billius Weasiy one's. I guess he was always sn underrated character in whole series
-_-
She Needs To Sort Out Her Priorities.
When in doubt, go to the library.
Don’t let the muggles get you down.
Draco Malfoy, the amazing bouncing ferret.


Isn't he iconic?! B)

There are three I find myself repeating over and over.

"Nicked it from Filch's office of course" "First year" (I count this as one, even though it's two different parts in the movie) - Weasley Twins

"Morning" - George Weasley

"If you'll excuse me, I'M going to bed, before either of you come up with another way to get us killed. Or worse, expelled" - Hermione Granger

There are probably better lines in the series, but one of the ones that I love is from Regulus Black's letter in the cave:
"I face death in the hope that when you meet your match, you will be mortal once more."

Beyond just summarizing the entirety of Deathly Hallows a whole book early, which is great foreshadowing, it is phrased beautifully. To me, it also shows that there were so, so many other wizarding people that don't get the spotlight that are probably just as important in determining the state of the Wizarding World as those that we do focus on, like Neville. Plus, there's a song by RiddleTM about the letter, so it's indelibly in my head.

The quotes I say daily out of random are from the movies, like Ron’s Howler, and when the trio have to play chess.
Ronald Weasley! How dare you steal that car! I am absolutely disgusted! Your father's facing an inquiry at work, and it's entirely your fault! If you put another toe out of line, we'll bring you straight home! Oh, and Ginny dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud. PPPBBBTTT!
Ron: Once I make my move, the queen will take me. Then you’re free to check the king.
HARRY: No. Ron, no!
HERMOINE: What is it?
HARRY: He’s going to sacrifice himself.
HERMOINE: No, you can’t! There must be another way.
RON: Do you want to stop Snape from getting that stone or not? Harry, it’s you that has to go on. I know it. Not me. Not Hermoine. You.

Severus Snape

"Would you like me to do it now?” asked Snape, his voice heavy with irony. “Or would you like a few moments to compose an epitaph?"

Harry Potter

Harry: "You're running away? After all that stuff you did in your books?"
Lockhart: "Books can be misleading."
Harry: "You wrote them!"

My father didn’t STRUT. Nor do I.

No need to call me sir, Professor.

Both by the wonderful Harry Potter himself.

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

"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." I love this one from Sirius.
