Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them quotes

Page 2 of 4

I need to get going. Find everyone who's escaped, before they get hurt.

Before they get hurt?

Yes, Mr. Kowalski. For they're currently in alien terrain surrounded by millions of the most vicious creatures on the planet...Humans.

I was hoping you could tell me if there have been any sightings...tracks, that sort of thing.

Gnarlack

You've got a pretty big price on your head, Mr. Scamander. Why should I help you, instead of turning you in?

I take it I'll have to make it worth your while.

Gnarlack

Let's consider it a cover charge. [Newt slides some Galleons across the table.] [scoffs] MACUSA's offering more than that. [Newt places an optical device on the table] A Lunascope? I got five.

[produces a...]

Frozen Ashwinder egg.

Gnarlack
[finally interested]

Oh, you see, now we're... [sees Newt's pocket with Pickett inside] Wait a minute. That's...that's a Bowtruckle!

People like you, don't they, Mr. Kowalski?

Oh. Well, I'm, uh, I'm sure people like you, too, huh?

Not really, no. I annoy people.

So did you get your loan?

No. I ain't got no collateral. Stayed in the army too long, apparently.

You fought in the War?

Of course I fought in the War. Everyone fought in the War. You didn't fight in the War?

I worked mostly with dragons - Ukrainian Ironbellies - Eastern Front.

You can tell me to mind my business, but I saw something in that death potion back there. I saw you hugging that Second Salem boy.

His name's Credence. His mother beats him. She beats all those kids she's adopted, but she seems to hate him the most.

And she was the No-Maj you attacked?

That's how I lost my job. I went for her in front of a meeting of her crazy followers. They all had to be Obliviated. It was a big scandal.

You're a Legilimens?

Mmm. Yeah. But I always have trouble with your kind. Brits. It's the accent.

You, uh, you know how to read minds?

Oh, don't worry, honey. Most guys think what you was thinkin' first time they see me.

So setting a pack of dangerous creatures loose here was just another accident, is that right?

Why would I do it deliberately?

To expose wizardkind. To provoke war between the magical and non-magical worlds.

[scoffs]

Mass slaughter for the greater good, you mean?

Yes, quite.

I'm not one of Grindelwald's fanatics, Mr. Graves.

You're an interesting man, Mr. Scamander.

Mr. Graves...

[silences her with a finger]

You were thrown out of Hogwarts for endangering human life...

That was an accident.

...with a beast. Yet one of your teachers argued strongly against your expulsion. Now...what makes Albus Dumbledore...so fond of you?

Are all No-Majs like you?

[suave]

No, I'm the only one like me. [knocks back a shot of Gigglewater, and immediately lets out a high-pitched bark of laughter]

I'll come with you. We'll go somewhere. We'll go anywhere. See, I ain't never gonna find anyone like you.

There's loads like me.

No. No. There's only one like you.

Seraphina Picquery

He was responsible for the death of a No-Maj. He risked the exposure of our community. He has broken one of our most sacred laws...

A law that has us scuttling like rats in the gutter! A law that demands we conceal our true nature! A law that directs those under its dominion to cower in fear lest we risk discovery! I ask you, Madam President, I ask all of you...Who does this law protect? Us? Or them? I refuse to bow down any longer.

[referring to Newt's suitcase that the creatures escaped from]

It was open?

Just a smidge.

And you were just in Equatorial Guinea?

And I've just completed a year in the fields. I'm writing a book about magical creatures.

Like an extermination guide?

No. A guide to help people understand why we should be protecting these creatures instead of killing them.
