Dumbledore (2 For, 0 Against)
"That which Voldemort does not value, he takes no trouble to understand. Of house-elves and children's tales, of love, loyalty, and innocence, Voldemort knows and understands nothing. Nothing. That they all have a power beyond his own, a power beyond the reach of any magic, is a truth he has never grasped."

- Albus Dumbledore

"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 think this quote is rather cruel but funny. --Harry Potter14

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)

 * This is very...interesting. It makes the reader/listener curious, but it doesn't give any details away. Plus, it seems kind of...foreboding. -- [[User: KendraFairy

I've always liked this quote.... it has always seemed like Rowling was trying give away something but she didn't plus i enjoy it do to the fact that they end the trailer for the movie with that line. i approve!"
