Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix quotes

View Quote Snape: It appears there is a connection between the Dark Lord's mind and your own. Whether he is, as yet, aware of this connection is for the moment unclear. Pray he remains ignorant.
Harry: You mean if he knows about it then, he'll be able to read my mind.
Snape: Read it, control it, unhinge it. In the past it was often the Dark Lord's pleasure to invade the minds of his victims, creating visions designed to torture them into madness. Only after extracting the last exquisite ounce of agony, only when he had them literally begging for death would he finally kill them. Used properly, the power of Occlumency will help shield you from access or influence. In these lessons I will attempt to penetrate your mind. You will attempt to resist. Prepare yourself! Legilimens!
[Series of flashbacks]
Snape: Concentrate, Potter. Focus.

View Quote Harry: This connection between me me and Voldemort, what if the reason for it is that I'm becoming more like him? I just feel so angry, all the time. And what if after everything I've been through, something's gone wrong inside me. What if I'm becoming bad?
Sirius: 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. You understand?
'[Harry nods his head] '
Sirius: Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We have all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the power we choose to act on. That's who we really are.

View Quote Hagrid: Dumbledore sent me to parley with the giants.
Hermione: The giants?! You found them?
Hagrid: Well they're not that hard to find, to be perfectly honest. They're so big, you see.

View Quote Umbridge: I've been watching them for weeks and see, Dumbledore's army. Proof of what I've been telling you right from the beginning, Cornelius.
[To Dumbledore]
Cornelius Fudge: All your fear mongering about You-Know-Who never fooled us for a minute. We say your lies for what they were, a smokescreen for your bid to seize control of the Ministry.
Dumbledore: Naturally.
Harry: No, professor! He had nothing to do with it, it was me!
Dumbledore: Most noble of you Harry to shield me, but as it's been pointed out the parchment clearly says Dumbledore's Army, not Potter's. I instructed Harry to form this organization and I, and I alone, am responsible for its activities.
Cornelius Fudge Dispatch a owl to the Daily Prophet if we hurry we should make the morning edition. Dawlish, Shacklebolt! You will escort Dumbledore to Azkaban, to await trial for conspiracy and sedition...
Dumbledore: Ah, I thought we might hit this little snag. You seem to be laboring under the delusion I am going to - what was the phrase? "Come quietly." i have no intention of doing so. i will of course escape.
Umbridge: Enough of this! Take him!
[Dumbledore summons his phoenix Fawkes and both explode and disappear in a ball of a flame]
Kingsley Shacklebolt: well You may not like him, Minister, but you can't deny--Dumbledore's got style!

View Quote [Snape has just witnessed Harry's memory of seeing his parents in the Mirror of Erised]
Snape: Feeling sentimental?
Harry: That's private.
Snape: Not to me. And not to the Dark Lord if you don't improve. Every memory he has access to is a weapon he can use against you. You won't last two seconds if he invades your mind. You're just like your father. Lazy, arrogant.
'Harry: Don't say a word against my father.
Snape: Weak!
Harry: I'm not weak!
Snape: Then prove it! Control your emotions! Discipline your mind! Legillimens!
[Series of flashbacks, including a touching moment between Harry and Sirius]
Harry: Sirius.
Snape: I may vomit.
Potter: Stop it!
Snape: Is that what you call control?
Harry: (heavy panting)We've been at it for hours. If I could just rest!
Snape: The Dark Lord isn't resting. You and Black, you're two of a kind, sentimental children forever whining about how bitterly unfair your lives have been, well it may have escaped your notice, but life isn't fair. Your blessed father knew that, in fact he frequently saw to it!
Harry: My father was a great man!
Snape: Your father was a swine. Legillimens!
Harry: Protego!

View Quote [Snape blocks out Harry after he accidentally sees into Snape's mind while trying to protecting himself]
Snape: Enough! Enough.
[Snape grabs Harry by his shirt]
Snape: Your lessons are at an end.
Harry: I didn't mean--
Snape: Get out.

View Quote Voldemort: I need that prophecy.
Sirius]: You'll have to kill me.
Voldemort: Oh I will, but first you will fetch it for me. Crucio! Crucio!

View Quote Harry: Alert the Order if you can.
Ron: Are you mental? We'll go with you!
Harry: It's too dangerous.
Hermione: When are you going to get it into your head! We're in this together!
Umbridge: [Catching them]That you are!

View Quote Snape: You sent for me, Headmistress?
Umbridge: Snape, yes. The time has come for answers, whether they want to give them to me or not. Have you brought the Veritaserum?
Snape: I'm afraid you used up all my stores, interrogating students. The last of it on Miss Chang. Unless you wish to poison him - and I assure you I would have the greatest sympathy if you did - I cannot help you.
Harry: He's got Padfoot. He's got Padfoot at the place where it's hidden.
Umbridge: Padfoot? What is Padfoot? Where what is hidden? What is he talking about Snape?
Snape: No idea.

View Quote Umbridge: Very well. You give me no choice, Potter. As this is a matter of Ministry Security, you leave me with... no other alternative. The Cruiciatus Curse ought to loosen your tounge.
Hermione: That's illegal.
Umbridge: [Putting a picture of Minister Fudge face down] What Cornelius doesn't know won't hurt him.
[Umbridge prepares to curse Harry.]
Hermione: Tell her, Harry!
Umbridge: Tell me what?
Hermione: Well, if you won't tell her where it is, I will.
Umbridge: Where what is?
Hermione: Dumbledore's secret weapon.

View Quote Hermione: [Running up with Harry to meet Ginny, Ron, Neville and Luna] How did you get away?
Ginny: Puking Pastilles, it wasn't pretty.
Ron: I told them I was hungry and wanted some sweets. Of course they told me to bugger off and ate them all themselves.
Hermione: [Surprised] That was clever, Ron!
Ron: It's been known to happen.
Neville: It was brilliant. So how are we get in London?
Harry: Look, it's not that I don't appreciate everything you've done, all of you. But, I've got you into enough trouble as it is.
Neville: Dumbledore's Army was supposed to be about doing something real. Or was all that just words to you?
Ron: Maybe you don't have to do this all by yourself mate.
Harry: So how are we going to get to London?
Luna: We fly, of course.

View Quote Harry: Where's Sirius?
Lucius Malfoy: You know, you really should learn to tell the difference between dreams and reality. You only saw what the Dark Lord wanted you to see. Now hand me the prophecy.
Harry: You do anything to us and I'll break it.
Bellatrix Lestrange: [laughs] He knows how to play! Itty bitty baby Potter!
Neville: Bellatrix Lestrange.
Bellatrix Lestrange: Neville Longbottom is it? How's mum and dad?
Neville: Better [points wand] now they're about to be avenged.
Lucius Malfoy [slowly raises wand]: Now let's everybody just calm down, shall we?

View Quote Lucius Malfoy: All we want is that prophecy.
Harry: Why did Voldemort need me to come and get this?
Bellatrix Lestrange: You dare speak his name? You filthy half-blood!
Lucius Malfoy: It's alright, he's just a curious lad aren't you? Prophecies can only be retrieved by those about whom they are made. Which is lucky for you, really. [whispers] Haven't you always wondered what was the reason for the connection between you and the Dark lord? Why he was unable to kill you, when you were just an infant? Don't you want to know the secret of you scar? All the answers are there, Potter, in your hand. All you have to do, is give it to me, and I can show you everything.
[The Death Eaters surround Harry's group]
Harry: I waited 14 years.
Lucius Malfoy: I know.
Harry: Guess I can wait a little longer. Now!
Harry, Ron, Neville & Ginny: Stupefy!
Hermione & Luna: Stupefy!

View Quote Lucius Malfoy: Did you actually believe, were you truly naive enough to think that children stood a chance, against us. I'll make this simple for you Potter. Give me the prophecy now, or watch your friends die.
Neville: Don't give it to him Harry!
Bellatrix Lestrange: Sst!
[Harry hesitates but hands over the prophecy. Malfoy holds it up and a white light distracts them.]
Sirius: Get away from my godson. [punches Malfoy]

View Quote Sirius: Now listen to me. I want you to take the others and get out of here.
Harry: What? No. I'm staying with you--
Sirius: You've done beautifully. Now let me take it from here.
