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.
---Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!
---Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
If there is one thing Voldemort cannot understand, it is love. He didn't realize that love as powerful as your mother's for you leaves it own mark. Not a scar, no visible sign . . . to have been loved so deeply, even though the person who loved us is gone, will give us some protection forever. It is in your very skin.
---Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
Fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself.
---Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

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.
---Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
---Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
In dreams, we enter a world that's entirely our own.
---Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
I sometimes find, and I am sure you know the feeling, that I simply have too many thoughts and memories crammed into my mind.... At these times... I use the Pensieve. One simply siphons the excess thoughts from one's mind, pours them into the basin, and examines them at one's leisure.
---Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Curiosity is not a sin.... But we should exercise caution with our curiosity... yes, indeed.

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.
---Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
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.
---Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
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.

---Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
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.
---Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
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.
---Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
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.
---Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
