Quotes of Albus Dumbledore
"Your mother died to save you. If there is one thing Voldemort can't understand, it's love."
"To the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure."
"Scars can come in handy. I have one myself above my left knee that is a perfect map of the London Underground."
"Professor Kettleburn, our Care of Magical Creatures teacher, retired at the end of last year in order to enjoy more time with his remaining limbs."
"Exactly, which makes you very different from Tom Riddle. It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."
"I will only truly have left this school when none here are loyal to me. Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it."
"The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with great caution."
"There are all kinds of courage. It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends."
"What happened between you and Quirrel down through the trapdoor is a complete secret, so naturally, the whole school knows."
"I believe your friends Misters Fred and George Weasley were responsible for trying to send you a toliet seat. No doubt they thought it would amuse you."
"...Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Teak!"
"Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!"
"One can never have enough socks. Another Christmas has come and gone and I didn't get a single pair. People will insist on giving me books."
"Enchantingly nasty, I particularly enjoyed your description of me as an obsolete dingbat."
"My dear Professor, I’ve never seen a cat sit so stiffly."
"It’s lucky it’s dark. I haven’t blushed so much since Madam Pomfrey told me she liked my new earmuffs."
"You think the dead we loved ever truly leave us? You think we don’t recall them more clearly than ever in times of great trouble? Your father is alive in you, Harry, and shows himself most plainly when you have need of him. How else could you produce that particular Patronus? Prongs rode again last night."
"I don't need a cloak to become invisible."
"What you need, Harry, is some food and sleep. I suggest you go down to the feast, while I write a letter to Azkaban-we need our gamekeeper back. And I must draft an advertisement for The Daily Prophet, too. And we'll be needing a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Dear me, we do seem to run through them, don't we?"
