The Prophet is bound to report the truth occasionally, said Dumbledore, if only accidentally.
J. K. Rowling
The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure. Thoughts are not etched on the inside of skulls, to be perused by an invader. The mind is a complex and many-layered thing.
J. K. Rowling
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.
J. K. Rowling
But I don’t think I’ve ever known such a natural at Potions!” said Slughorn. “Instinctive, you know — like his mother! I’ve only ever taught a few with this kind of ability, I can tell you that, Sybill — why even Severus —” And to Harry’s horror, Slughorn threw out an arm and seemed to scoop Snape out of thin air toward them.

Am I about to discover where you, Ron, and Hermione disappeared to while you were supposed to be in the back room of Fred and George's shop? How did you...? Harry, please. You're talking to the man who raised Fred and George.
J. K. Rowling
We all know that the people we love are mortal, we all know we’re mortal, we know it’s going to end you cannot prepare yourself for it.

Don't be stupid, it's a flying house!
J. K. Rowling
OH NO YOU DON’T, LADDIE!” Harry spun around. Professor Moody was limping down the marble staircase. His wand was out and it was pointing right at a pure white ferret, which was shivering on the stone-flagged floor, exactly where Malfoy had been standing.
J. K. Rowling
I never meant to call you Mudblood, it just- Lily: Slipped out? It’s too late. I’ve made excuses for you for years. None of my friends can understand why I even talk to you. You and your precious little Death Eater friends ... You’ve chosen your way, I’ve chosen mine.
J. K. Rowling
The mind is a complex and many-layered thing, Potter... or at least, most minds are.
J. K. Rowling
Well you seemed too busy to call him a prat and I thought someone should.
J. K. Rowling
But if it matters to you, you'll be able to choose Gryffindor over Slytherin. The Sorting Hat takes your choice into account. Really? It did for me, said Harry. He had never told any of his children that before, and he saw the wonder in Albus's face when he said it.
J. K. Rowling
And what in the name of Merlin’s most baggy Y Fronts was that about?
J. K. Rowling
That's the perennial appeal of magic - that we ourselves have power and we can shape our world. I sometimes think its very analogous to having a lot of money that people think - 'cause that's kind of like a super power.
J. K. Rowling
I'm a real sucker for guitars. I've had a crush on many, many a guitarist.
J. K. Rowling
Would it hurt to die? All those times he had thought it was about to happen and escaped, he had never really thought of the thing itself: his will to live had always been so much stronger than his fear of death.
J. K. Rowling
I find that discussing an idea out loud is often the way to kill it stone dead.
J. K. Rowling
Only one thing mattered: this was not a Horcrux. Dumbledore had weakened himself by drinking that horrible potion for nothing. Harry crumpled the parchment in his hand and his eyes burned with tears as behind him Fang began to howl.
J. K. Rowling
And anyway, it’s not as though I’ll never see Mum again, is it?
J. K. Rowling
I want to commit the murder I was imprisoned for.
