Overload 'em with information an' they'll kill yeh jus' to simplify things.
J. K. Rowling
And as she jogged out of sight, they could hear her muttering, Tentacula. Devil's Snare. And Snargaluff pods. Yes, I'd like to see Death Eaters fighting those.
J. K. Rowling
Jealous?...Of what? I don't want a foul scar right across my head, thanks. I don't think getting your head cut open makes you that special, myself.
J. K. Rowling
Fred and George turned to each other and said together, “Wow — we’re identical!
J. K. Rowling
I thought it sounded a bit like Percy singing... maybe you've got to attack him while he's in the shower, Harry.
J. K. Rowling

Merlin’s beard, Harry, you made me jump,” said Slughorn, stopping dead in his tracks and looking wary. “How did you get out of the castle?” “I think Filch must’ve forgotten to lock the doors,” said Harry cheerfully, and was delighted to see Slughorn scowl.
J. K. Rowling
And sure enough, in seeking to become superhuman this foolhardy young man renders himself inhuman. The heart that he has locked away slowly shrivels and grows hair, symbolising his own descent to beasthood.
J. K. Rowling

The people around the famous person often pay a price without reaping many of the rewards.
J. K. Rowling
Friday was an important day for Harry and Ron. They finally managed to find their way down to the Great Hall without getting lost once.
J. K. Rowling
George,” said Fred, “I think we’ve outgrown full-time education.” “Yeah, I’ve been feeling that way myself,” said George lightly.
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
Hagrid looked down at his umbrella and scratched his beard. 'Shouldn'ta lost me temper,' he said ruefully, 'but it didn't work anyway. Meant ter turn him into a pig, but I suppose he was so much like a pig anyway there wasn't much left ter do.
J. K. Rowling
They were bullyin' him, Hermione, 'cause he's so small! said Hagrid. Small? said Hermione. Small? Hermione, I couldn't leave him, said Hagrid, tears now trickling down his bruised face into his beard. See -- he's my brother!
J. K. Rowling
She's as nutty as squirrel poo.
J. K. Rowling
I'm sure that I'll never have another success like Harry Potter for the rest of my life, no matter how many books I write, and no matter whether they're good or bad.
J. K. Rowling
Only the difference between truth and lies, courage and cowardice.
J. K. Rowling
No, thanks, said Harry. The toilet's never had anything as horrible as your head down it— it might be sick. Then he ran, before Dudley could work out what he'd said.
J. K. Rowling
