"Call him Voldemort, Harry. Always use the proper name for things. Fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself."

"You must accept the reality of other people. You think that reality is up for negotiation, that we think it's whatever you say it is. You must accept that we are as real as you are; you must accept that you are not God."

"We can't choose our fate, but we can choose others. Be careful in knowing that."

"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."

"Dumbledore will only leave from Hogwarts when there are none loyal to him!"

"There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other, and knocking out a twelve-foot mountain troll is one of them."

"Understanding is the first step to acceptance, and only with acceptance can there be recovery."

"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."

"The thing about growing up with Fred and George," said Ginny thoughtfully, "is that you sort of start thinking anything's possible if you've got enough nerve."

"Is 'fat' really the worst thing a human being can be? Is 'fat' worse than 'vindictive', 'jealous', 'shallow', 'vain', 'boring' or 'cruel'? Not to me."

"To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure."

"You might never fail on the scale I did, but some failure in life is inevitable. It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default."

"Whatever happens to your body, your soul will survive, untouched..."

"Hearing voices no one else can hear isn't a good sign, even in the wizarding world."

"As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.I wish you all very good lives."

"The best of us must sometimes eat our words."

"What would come, would come...and you would have to meet it, when it did."

"There is no good and evil, there is only power and those too weak to seek it."

"Albus Severus," Harry said quietly, so that nobody but Ginny could hear, and she was tactful enough to pretend to be waving to Rose, who was now on the train, "you were named for two headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew."

"I DON'T CARE!" Harry yelled at them, snatching up a lunascope and throwing it into the fireplace. "I'VE HAD ENOUGH, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH, I WANT OUT, I WANT IT TO END, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!""You do care," said Dumbledore. He had not flinched or made a single move to stop Harry demolishing his office. His expression was calm, almost detached. "You care so much you feel as though you will bleed to death with the pain of it."

"We're all human, aren't we? Every human life is worth the same, and worth saving."

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