Harry Potter quotes
Book II: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
"'Ginny!' said Mr Weasley, flabbergasted. 'Haven't I taught you anything? What have I always told you? Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can't see where it keeps its brain."
*
"It's our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." - Dumbledore
Book III: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
" 'So, the first question we must ask ourselves is, what is a Boggart?'
Hermione put up her hand.
'It's a shape-shifter,' she said. 'It cab take the shape of whatever it thinks will frighten us most.'
...
'The charm that repels a Boggart is simple, yet it requires force of mind. You see, the thing that really finishes a Boggart is laughter. What you need to do is force it to assume a shape that you find ammusing.'
'We will practise the charm without wands first. After me, please ... riddikulus!'"
*
"'Dementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope and happiness out of the air around them. Even Muggles feel their presence, though they can't see them. Get too near a Dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory, will be sucked out of you. If it can, the Dementor will feed on you long enough to reduce you to something like itself - soulless and evil. You'll be left with nothing but the worst experiences of your life.'
...
'It was horrible,' said Neville, in a higher voice than usual. 'Did you feel how cold it went when it came in?'
'I felt wierd,' said Ron, shifting his shoulders uncomfortably. 'Like I'd never be cheerful again...'
...
'The fortress is set on a tiny island, way out to sea, but they don't need walls and water to keep the prisoners in, not when they're all trapped inside their own heads, incapable of a single cheerful thought. Most of them go mad within weeks.'
...
'I did think of Voldemort first,'said Harry honestly. 'But then I - I remembered those Dementors.'
'I see,' said Lupin thoughtfully. 'Well, well ... I'm impressed.' He smiled slightly at the look of surprise on Harry's face. 'That suggests that what you fear most of all is - fear. Very wise, Harry.'"
