More quotes by J. K. Rowling
You can try, but you seem cleverer than Fudge, so I'd have thought you'd have learned from his mistakes. He tried intervening 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.
J. K. Rowling
The mistake ninety-nine percent of humanity made, as far as Fats could see, was being ashamed of what they were lying about it, trying to be somebody else.
J. K. Rowling
I loathe people who say, 'I always read the ending of the book first.' That really irritates me, It's like someone coming to dinner, just opening the fridge and eating pudding, while you're standing there still working on the starter. It's not on.
J. K. Rowling
It's just hard, Harry said finally, in a low voice, to realize he won't write me again
J. K. Rowling
Sport is a very important subject at school, that's why I gave Quidditch such an important place at Hogwarts. I was very bad in sports, so I gave Harry a talent I would really loved to have. Who wouldn't want to fly?
J. K. Rowling
Draco Malfoy is a bad boy! squeaked Dobby angrily.
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.
J. K. Rowling
In the end, it mattered not that you could not close your mind. It was your heart that saved you.
J. K. Rowling
Fools who wear their hearts proudly on their sleeves, who cannot control their emotions, who wallow in sad memories and allow themselves to be provoked this easily - weak people, in other words.
J. K. Rowling
Well, we were always going to fail that one, said Ron gloomily as they ascended the marble staircase. He had just made Harry feel rather better by telling him how he told the examiner in detail about the ugly man with a wart on his nose in the crystal ball, only to look up and realize he had been describing the examiner's reflection.
J. K. Rowling
I am prouder of my years as a single mother than of any other part of my life.
J. K. Rowling
The barman sidled toward them out of a back room. He was a grump-looking old man with a great deal of a long gray hair and a beard. He was tall and thin and looked vaguely familiar to Harry.
J. K. Rowling
Does it hurt? The childish question had escaped Harry's lips before he could stop it. Dying? Not at all, said Sirius. Quicker and easier than falling asleep.
J. K. Rowling
I'm very frustrated by fear of imagination. I don't think that's healthy.
J. K. Rowling
I received free health care.
J. K. Rowling
What's most important in a friendship? Tolerance and loyalty.
J. K. Rowling
But Death was cunning.
J. K. Rowling
That's right, said Luna encouragingly, as if they were back in the Room of Requirement and this was simply spell practice for the D.A. That's right, Harry... come on, think of something happy... Something happy? he said, his voice cracked. We're all still here, she whispered, We're still fighting. Come on, now.
J. K. Rowling
Yes, Harry Potter!” said Dobby at once, his great eyes shining with excitement. “And if Dobby does it wrong, Dobby will throw himself off the topmost tower, Harry Potter!” “There won’t be any need for that,” said Harry hastily.
J. K. Rowling
I feel I owe you another explanation Harry, said Dumbledore hesitantly. You may, perhaps, wondered why I never chose you as a prefect? I must confess...that I rather thought...you had enough responsibility to be going on with. Harry looked up at him and saw a tear trickling down Dumbledore's face into his long silver beard.
J. K. Rowling
