Kingsley Shacklebolt: You may not like him, Minister, but you can't deny: Dumbledore's got style.

Harry Potter: This connection between me and Voldemort... what if the reason for it is that I am becoming more like him? I just feel so angry, all the time. What if after everything that I've been through, something's gone wrong inside me? What if I'm becoming bad?
Sirius Black: I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry. You're not a bad person.

You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to. Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.

[Ron and Hermione ask Harry about his first kiss with Cho]
Ron Weasley: Well? How was it?
Harry Potter: Wet. I mean, she was sort of crying.
Ron Weasley: [laughs] That bad at it, are you?
Hermione Granger: I'm sure Harry's kissing was more than satisfactory. Cho spends half her time crying these days.


Ron Weasley: You'd think a bit of snogging would cheer her up.
Hermione Granger: Don't you understand how she must be feeling? Well, obviously she's feeling sad about Cedric, and therefore confused about liking Harry, guilty about kissing him, conflicted because Umbridge is pressing to sack her mum from the Ministry, and frightened about failing her

OWLs because she's so busy worrying about everything else.
Ron Weasley: One person couldn't feel all that. They'd explode!
Hermione Granger: Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon...

Dolores Umbridge: [during an inspection] You applied first for the Defense Against the Dark Arts post, is that correct?
Severus Snape: Yes.
Dolores Umbridge: But you were unsuccessful?
Severus Snape: [annoyed] Obviously...
[Ron snickers, Snape whacks him on the head with a book]

Ron Weasley: Hermione, you are honestly the most wonderful person I have ever met. If I'm ever rude to you...
Hermione Granger: I'll know you've gone back to normal.

Harry Potter: How come you're not at the feast?
Luna Lovegood: I've lost all my possessions. Apparently people have been hiding them.
Harry Potter: That's awful!
Luna Lovegood: Oh, it's all good fun. But as this is the last night, I really do need them back.
Harry Potter: Do you want

any help finding them?
Luna Lovegood: I'm sorry about your godfather, Harry.
[clasps his hand comfortingly]
Harry Potter: Are you sure you don't want any help looking?
Luna Lovegood: That's all right. Anyway, my mum always said things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end.
[they look up and see a

pair of her shoes hanging from the ceiling arch]
Luna Lovegood: If not always in the way we expect.

Harry Potter: [while being possessed by Voldemort] You... you've lost, old man!
Albus Dumbledore: Harry.
Lord Voldemort: So weak! So vulnerable! Look at me!
Albus Dumbledore: Harry, it isn't how you are alike. It's how you are not.
[pause]
Albus Dumbledore: Harry.
[as

Harry sees his friends enter the Atrium, he remembers the happy times he spent with them]
Harry Potter: [to Voldemort] You're the weak one. And you'll never know love, or friendship. And I feel sorry for you.
[Voldemort is forced out of Harry's body]
Lord Voldemort: You're a fool, Harry Potter, and you will lose everything!
[the Aurors

arrive at the scene. Voldemort quickly apparates away. But Fudge has a look of shock on his face]
Cornelius Fudge: He's back!

Hermione Granger: Um... Hi! You all know why we're here. We need a teacher. A proper teacher. One who's had real experience defending themselves against the Dark Arts.
Zacharias Smith: Why?
Ron Weasley: Why. Because You-Know-Who's back, you tosspot.
Zacharias Smith: [nods toward Harry] So he says.

Hermione Granger: So Dumbledore says.
Zacharias Smith: So Dumbledore says because he says! The point is, where's the proof?
Slightly Creepy Boy: If Potter could tell us more about how Diggory got killed...
Harry Potter: I'm not going to talk about Cedric, so if that's why you're here you might as well clear

out now.
[aside to Hermione]
Harry Potter: C'mon, Hermione, let's go. They're just here because they think I'm some sort of freak.
Hermione Granger: Harry, wait!
Luna Lovegood: Is it true you can produce a Patronus charm?
Hermione Granger: Yes. I've seen it.
Dean Thomas:

Blimey, Harry! I didn't know you could do that!
Neville Longbottom: And he killed a basilisk, with the sword in Dumbledore's office.
Ginny Weasley: It's true.
Ron Weasley: Third year he fought off about a hundred dementors at once.
Hermione Granger: And last year he really did fight off You-Know-Who in

the flesh.
Harry Potter: Wait... look, it all sounds *great* when you say it like that. But the truth is most of that was just luck. I didn't know what I was doing half the time, I nearly always had help...
Hermione Granger: He's just being modest.
Harry Potter: No, Hermione, I'm not! Facing this stuff in real life is not like

school. In school, if you make a mistake you can just try again tomorrow. But out there, when you're a second away from being murdered or watching a friend die right before your eyes... you don't know what that's like.
Hermione Granger: You're right, Harry, we don't. That's why we need your help. Because if we're having any chance against beating... Voldemort.

Nigel 2nd Year: He's really back?
[Harry nods]

Harry Potter: [to the D.A. members] Working hard is important, but there's something that matters even more. Believing in yourself. Think of it this way: Every great wizard in history has started out as nothing more than we are now. Students. If they can do it, why not us?

Sirius Black: If anyone's got a right to know it's Harry. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't even know Voldemort was back! He's not a child, Molly!
Mrs. Weasley: He's not an adult either! He's not James, Sirius.
Sirius Black: He's not your son.
Mrs. Weasley: He's as good as! Who else as he got?

Sirius Black: He's got me!

[last lines]
Harry Potter: I've been thinking about something Dumbledore said to me.
Hermione Granger: What's that?
Harry Potter: That even though we've got a fight ahead of us, we've got one thing that Voldemort doesn't have.
Ron Weasley: Yeah?
Harry Potter: Something worth

fighting for.

Dolores Umbridge: Your previous instruction in this subject has been disturbingly uneven. But you will be pleased to know from now on, you will be following a carefully structured, Ministry-approved course of defensive magic.
[Hermoine raises her hand]
Dolores Umbridge: Yes?
Hermione Granger: There's nothing in here about

using defensive spells.
Dolores Umbridge: Using spells? Ha ha! Well I can't imagine why you would need to use spells in my classroom.
Ron Weasley: We're not gonna use magic?
Dolores Umbridge: You will be learning about defensive spells in a secure, risk-free way.
Harry Potter: Well, what use is that? If

we're gonna be attacked, it won't be risk-free.
Dolores Umbridge: Students will raise their hands when they speak in my class.
[pauses]
Dolores Umbridge: It is the view of the Ministry that a theoretical knowledge will be sufficient to get you through your examinations, which after all, is what school is all about.
Harry

Potter: And how's theory supposed to prepare us for what's out there?
Dolores Umbridge: There is nothing out there, dear! Who do you imagine would want to attack children like yourself?
Harry Potter: [sarcastically] Oh, I don't know. Maybe Lord Voldemort!
[there is a brief silence]
Dolores Umbridge: Now let me

make this quite plain. You have been told that a certain dark wizard is at large once again. This... is... a... lie.
Harry Potter: It's not a lie! I saw him! I fought him!
Dolores Umbridge: DETENTION, Mr. Potter!
Harry Potter: So according to you, Cedric Diggory dropped dead OF HIS OWN ACCORD.
Dolores

Umbridge: Cedric Diggory's death was a tragic accident.
Harry Potter: [angrily] It was murder! Voldemort killed him! You must know!
Dolores Umbridge: ENOUGH! Enough. See me later, Mr. Potter, in my office.

Harry Potter: First we've got to find a place to practice where Umbridge won't find out.
Ginny Weasley: The Shrieking Shack?
Harry Potter: It's too small.
Hermione Granger: The Forbidden Forest?
Ron Weasley: Not bloody likely!
Ginny Weasley: Harry, what happens

if Umbridge does find out?
Hermione Granger: Who cares? I mean, it's sort of exciting, isn't it, breaking the rules.
Ron Weasley: Who are you and what have you done with Hermione Granger?
Hermione Granger: Anyway, at least we know one positive thing that came from today.
Harry Potter: What's that?

Hermione Granger: Cho couldn't take her eyes off you, could she?

[referring to Ron's Christmas jumper]
Hermione Granger: I can't understand why you don't want to wear it, Ronald.
Ron Weasley: Cause I'll look like a bloody idiot, that's why.
Hermione Granger: No more than usual.

Severus Snape: You sent for me, Headmistress?
Dolores Umbridge: Snape, yes. The time has come for answers, whether he wants to give them or not. Have you brought the Veritaserum?
Severus Snape: I'm afraid you have used up all my stores interrogating students, the last of it on Miss Chang. Unless you wish to poison Potter - and I

assure you, I would have the greatest sympathy if you did - I cannot help you.
Harry Potter: [desperately] He's got Padfoot. He's got Padfoot at the place where it's hidden.
Dolores Umbridge: Padfoot? What is Padfoot? Where is what hidden? What is he talking about, Snape?
Severus Snape: No idea.
[leaves]

Dolores Umbridge: Very well. You give me no choice, Potter. As this is an issue of Ministry Security, you leave me with no alternative. The Cruciatus Curse ought to loosen your tongue.
Hermione Granger: That's illegal!
Dolores Umbridge: [putting down a picture of Fudge on her desk] What Cornelius doesn't know won't hurt him.

Albus Dumbledore: [Dumbledore has arrived at Harry's trial, which was moved up] Witness for the defense, Albus Percival Wulfric... Brian... Dumbledore.
Cornelius Fudge: Oh! Albus... I see you got our notice about the time change of the hearing...
Albus Dumbledore: I must have missed it; but by a happy mistake, I arrived at the

Ministry three hours early.
