I think this quote is very ironic just becuase the dark lord rising again is so far-fetched when it happens to years later, plus this is one of the only intence predictions made by Trelawney

"Knew! Of course we knew! How weren´t we to know, with that freak of a sister?! Oh, she received a letter just like that about that ... that school, and she disappeared, and she came home for vacation with a pocket full of frogs and turning tea cups into rats! I was the only one that saw what she truly was... a freak!"

I do not find this quote amusing in the slightest, and i find it sad when she insults her dead sister. --Meena96 14:53, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
