View Quote [After Voldemort returns] He's back!

View Quote We have confirmed, that ten high-security prisoners, in the early hours of yesterday evening, did escape. And of course the Muggle Prime Minister has been alerted to the danger. We strongly suspect that the break out was engineered by a man with personal experience in escaping from Azkaban, notorious mass-murderer Sirius Black, cousin of escapee, Bellatrix Lestrange.

View Quote [Harry is in the pub in an upstairs room under the Invisibility Cloak unbeknownst to Rosmerta, Fudge and McGonagall]
Madame Rosmerta: Nobody's gonna come to a pub where they'll get scared out of their wits.
Professor McGonagall: Professor Dumbledore doesn't want dementors around the place, I can assure you.
Madame Rosmerta: Now, tell me what this is all about.
Professor McGonagall: Years ago, when Harry Potter's parents realized they were marked for death, do you remember? They went into hiding. Few knew where they were. One who did, was Sirius Black. And he told You-Know-Who.
Cornelius Fudge: Not only did Black lead You-Know-Who to the Potters that night, but he also killed one of their friends, Peter Pettigrew.
Madame Rosmerta: Peter Pettigrew?
Professor McGonagall: Little lump of a boy, always trailing after Sirius Black.
Madame Rosmerta: Oh, I remember him. Never let James and Sirius out of his sight. But what happened?
Professor McGonagall: Well, Peter Pettigrew tried to warn the Potters and might have managed to if he hadn't run into an old friend.
Cornelius Fudge: Black was vicious. He didn't kill Pettigrew. He destroye him! A finger! [holds up his pinky] That's all that was left, a finger! Nothing else.
Professor McGonagall: Yes. Sirius Black may not have put his hands to the Potters, but he's the reason they're dead.
Cornelius Fudge: And now he wants to finish what he started.
Madame Rosmerta: I don't believe it.
Cornelius Fudge: That's not the worst of it.
Madame Rosmerta: What could be worse?
Professor McGonagall: This: Sirius Black was, and remains to this day... Harry Potter's godfather!
[Having learned this, Harry runs out of the room, sobbing, and into a clearing in the forest as Ron and Hermione follow his footprints]
Hermione: [removes the cloak] Harry, what happened?
Harry: [quietly; tearfully] He was their friend… and he betrayed them. [yelling in rage] HE WAS THEIR FRIEND! [echoes] I hope he finds me. [vowing threateningly] 'Cause when he does, I'm gonna be ready. When he does, I'm gonna KILL HIM!

View Quote Krempe: You fool, Victor Frankenstein of Geneva, how could you know what you had unleashed? How was it pieced together? Bits of thieves? Bits of murderers? Evil stitched to evil stitched to evil. God help your loved ones.

View Quote Krempe: Once and for all, Frankenstein. Life is life, death is death. These things are real. They are absolute... .
Victor Frankenstein: That is rubbish and you know it. The premise has been repeatedly challenged by members of your own staff! to Waldman Yes you sir! We don't know where life ends or death begins. Hair continues to grow after what we choose to call death, so do fingernails! We know that a man's brain may die, but his heart and lungs may continue to pump and breathe. Now you know that!
Krempe: Mr. Frankenstein of Geneva, I warn you what you are suggesting is not only illegal, it is immoral.
Victor Frankenstein: Rubbish!

View Quote Krempe: The foolish and vain force their views by their brawn. But knowledge is power only through god, our motto, easily forgotten by you young men in a hurry... . But perhaps the greatest mistake that all students make during their time here is to suppose that they can ever have an original or creative thought. We have all imagined that in our time. But gentleman you have not come here in order to think for yourselves. You are here to learn how to think for your patients. You must learn therefore in the first place, to submit yourselves to the established laws of physical reality.
Victor Frankenstein: But surely, Professor, you don't intend we disregard more philosophical approaches.
Krempe: Philosophical?
Victor Frankenstein: Those which stir the imagination as well as the intellect. As in Paracelsus, for example.
Krempe: Ah, Paracelsus. An arrogant and foolish Swiss.
Victor Frankenstein: Albertus Magnus.
Krempe: His nonsense was exploded 500 years ago!
Victor Frankenstein: Cornelius Agrippa.
Krempe: A sorcerer, an occultist. What is your name?
Victor Frankenstein: Victor Frankenstein sir. Of Geneva.
Krempe: Oh-ho. Another Swiss. Mr. Frankenstein here at the University of Ingolstadt, we teach and indeed hope to advance the science of medicine. Chemistry, biology, physics. We study hard science.
Victor Frankenstein: But surely professor the greatest possible advances lie in combining these things.
Krempe: We do not study the ravings of lunatics and alchemists hundreds of years in their graves because they're kind of amateur, fanatical, fantastical speculation does not heal bodies or save lives! Only science can do that. Now have we your permission to continue.
