View Quote Freshly caught Cornish Pixies! [Seamus snickers] Laugh if you will, Mr. Finnigan. These Pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters. Let's see what you make of them now! [Opens the cage and the entire class erupts into chaos as the pixies escape] Come on now, round them up, round them up, they're only pixies!
View Quote Mrs Weasley via Howler: RONALD WEASLEY!!! HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR?! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED!!! YOUR FATHER'S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, AND IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT!!! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!!! Oh, and Ginny, dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud.
Moaning Myrtle: I'm Moaning Myrtle! I wouldn't expect you to know me, who would ever talk about ugly, miserable, moping Moaning Myrtle?
View Quote Let me introduce you to your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher: Me. Gilderoy Lockhart, Order of Merlin, Third Class; Honorary member of the Dark Force Defense League and five time winer... of Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile award. But I don't talk about that. I didn't get rid of the Bandon banshee by smiling at him [Laughs dryly] Now, be warned. It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to Wizard kind. [Taps a cage with a cloth over it; it rattles] You may find yourself facing your worst fears in this room. Know only that no harm will befall you whilst I am here. I must ask you not to scream. It might provoke them! [Pulls the rag off to reveal dozens of pixies]
View Quote Your parents were meddlesome fools too! Mark my words, Potter: one day, you are going to meet the same, sticky end.
View Quote [Pretends to faint at the sight of the basilisk skin, then grabs Ron's wand] The adventure ends here, boys. But don't fret. The world will know our story: how I was too late to save to save the girl; how you two tragically lost your minds at the sight of her mangled body. You first, Mr. Potter. Say goodbye... to your memories. Obiliviate!
View Quote Yes, Potter. The process is nearly complete. In a few minutes, Ginny Weasley will be dead, and I will cease to be a memory. Lord Voldemort will return... very... much... alive.
View Quote Follow the spiders! Follow the spiders! If Hagrid ever gets out of Azkaban, I'll kill him!
View Quote Why spiders? Why can't it be "follow the butterflies"?!
View Quote [Harry has just entered the Chamber of Secrets]
Harry: [Sees Ginny Weasley at the end of the chamber] Ginny. [Runs to the end] Ginny. Ginny. Please don't be dead. Wake up. Wake up!
Tom Riddle: She won't wake.
Harry: Tom? Tom Riddle? You've got to help me, Tom. There's a basilisk--
Tom Riddle: [Picks up Harry's wand] It won't come until it's called.
Harry: Give me my wand, Tom.
Tom Riddle: You won't be needing it.
Harry: What are you talking about? We've got to go, we've got to save her!
Tom Riddle: I'm afraid I can't do that, Harry. You see, as Ginny grows weaker, I grow stronger. That's right, Harry. It was Ginny Weasley who opened the Chamber of Secrets.
Harry: No, she couldn't. She wouldn't.
Tom Riddle: It was Ginny Weasley who set the basilisk on the mudbloods and Filch's cat. Ginny Weasley who wrote the threatening messages on the walls.
Harry: But why?
Tom Riddle: Because I told her to. You'll find I can be very... persuasive. Not that she knew what she was doing, she was in, shall we say, a kind of trance. Still, the power of the diary began to scare her, and she tried to dispose of it in the girl's bathroom. And then who should find it... but you? The very person I was most anxious to meet.
Harry: And why did you want to meet me?
Tom Riddle: I knew I had to talk to you, meet you if I could. So I decided to show you my capture of that brainless oaf Hagrid so I could gain your trust.
Harry: Hagrid's my friend! And you framed him, didn't you?
Tom Riddle: It was my word against Hagrid's. Only Dumbledore seemed to think he was innocent.
Harry: I'll bet Dumbledore saw right through you.
Tom Riddle: He certainly kept an annoyingly close watch on me after that. I knew it wouldn't be safe for me to open the Chamber again while I was still at school, so I decided to leave behind a diary - preserving my sixteen year-old self in its pages so that one day, I could lead another to finish Salazar Slytherin's noble work.
Harry: Well, you haven't finished it this time. In a few hours, the mandrake drought will be ready and those who have been petrified will be all right again.
Tom Riddle: Haven't I told you? Killing mudbloods doesn't matter to me anymore. For many months now, my new target... has been you. How is it that a baby with no extraordinary magical talent was able to defeat the greatest wizard of all time? How is it you escaped with nothing but a scar while Lord Voldemort's powers were destroyed?!
Harry: Why do you care how I escaped? Voldemort was after your time.
Tom Riddle: Voldemort is my past, present and future. [uses Harry's wand to write his name in midair: TOM MARVOLO RIDDLE. He slashes the wand and the letters rearrange to become I AM LORD VOLDEMORT]
Harry: You. You're the heir of Slytherin. You're Voldemort.
Tom Riddle: Surely... you didn't think I was going to keep my FILTHY Muggle father's name? No, Harry. I fashioned myself a new name. A name I knew wizard's everywhere would one day fear to speak while I became the greatest sorcerer in the world!
Harry: Albus Dumbledore is the greatest sorcerer in the world!
Tom Riddle: Dumbledore's been driven out of this school by the mere memory of me!
Harry: He'll never be gone! Not as long as those who remain are loyal to him! [Fawkes suddenly enters the chamber] Fawkes? [Fawkes drops the sorting hat to Harry and leaves]
Tom Riddle: So... this is what Dumbledore sends his great defender: a songbird and an old hat. [Moves so he is now in front of the giant stone head of Salazar Slytherin; speaks Parseltounge] Let's match the power of Lord Voldemort, heir of Salazar Slytherin against the famous Harry Potter.
View Quote [After being pushed into Chamber of Secrets] It's really quite filthy down here.
View Quote Let me see...red hair, vacant expressions, tatty second-hand books, you must be the Weasleys.
View Quote [After Neville is hung from a chandelier] Peskipiksi Pesternomi! [A pixie takes the wand.]
View Quote Funny, the damage a silly little book can do, especially in the hands of a silly little girl.
View Quote Bloody hell.
View Quote [to Malfoy] Eat Slugs! [the spell backfires, making Ron regurgitate oversized slugs]
