sun shone out of my brother's every orifice, he did." ~J.K. Rowling, "The Missing
Mirror," Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 2007
It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are
those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon
them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise
that they wear it well. ~J.K. Rowling, "King's Cross," Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows, 2007, spoken by the character Albus Dumbledore
Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that

by side, in the same direction.

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.

Spoken by Albus Dumbledore
The truth is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with
caution.
It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand
up to our friends.
As much money and life as you could want! The two things most human beings would
choose above all - the trouble is, humans do have a knack of choosing precisely those
things that are worst for them.
There is no good or evil: only power and those too weak to seek it.
Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!

You can exist without your soul, you know, as long as your brain and heart are still

no chance at all of recovery. You'll just exist. As an empty shell.
Remus Lupin to Harry.
The consequences of our actions are so complicated, so diverse, that predicting the
future is a very difficult business indeed.
You think the dead we loved ever truly leave us? You think that we don't recall them
more clearly than ever in times of great trouble? Your father is alive in you, Harry,
and shows himself plainly when you have need of him.
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn
on the light.
Spoken by Albus Dumbledore in movie, screenplay by Steven Kloves.
In dreams, we enter a world that's entirely our own.

very long time.
You place too much importance... on the so-called purity of blood! You fail to
recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be!
We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided. Lord Voldemort's
gift for spreading discord and enmity is very great. We can fight it only by showing an
equally strong bond of friendship and trust. Differences of habit and language are
nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.
Albus Dumbledore to Hogwart's students.
Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is
right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind,
and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.
Dark and difficult times lie ahead. Soon we must all face the choice between what is
right and what is easy.
What's comin' will come and we'll meet it when it does.

always does in the end.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Spoken by Luna Lovegood.
His priority did not seem to be to teach them what he knew, but rather to impress
upon them that nothing, not even... knowledge, was foolproof.
You sort of start thinking anything's possible if you've got enough nerve.
Spoken by Ginny Weasley.
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.
Spoken by Severus Snape.
Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike.
Youth cannot know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget
what it was to be young.
Indeed, your failure to understand that there are things much worse than death has
always been your greatest weakness.
Dumbledore to Voldermort.
Harry, suffering like this proves you are still a man! This pain is part of being human
… the fact that you can feel pain like this is your greatest strength.
Dumbledore to Harry as he struggles with grief and anger over Sirius's death.
Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike ...We
wizards have mistreated and abused our fellows for too long, and we are now reaping
our reward.
Dumbledore to Harry, talking about Sirius's treatment of Kreacher.
He chose the boy he thought most likely to be a danger to him ... and notice this,
Harry. He chose, not the pureblood (which according to his creed, is the only kind of
wizard worth being or knowing), but the half-blood, like himself. He saw himself in
you before he had ever seen you, and in marking you with that scar, he did not kill
you, as he intended, but gave you powers, and a future, which have fitted you to
escape him not once, but four times so far.
Dumbledore to Harry.
An invisible barrier separated him from the rest of the world. He was - he had always
been a marked man.
Time is making fools of us again.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
We must try not to sink beneath our anguish, Harry, but battle on.
It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a
battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some
people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but
Dumbledore knew - and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did
my parents - that there was all the difference in the world.
It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more.
People find it far easier to forgive others for being wrong than being right.
Age is foolish and forgetful when it underestimates youth.
Dumbledore to Harry.
When you have seen as much of life as I have, you will not underestimate the power
of obsessive love.
Dumbledore: Harry Potter Quote
I will only truly have left this school none here are loyal to me... Help will always be given at
Hogwarts to those whoRemember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have
to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy
who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.
Remember Cedric Diggory. ask for it.
