“Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus

[never tickle a sleeping dragon]”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

J.K. Rowling
“Don't forget to give Neville our love!' Ginny told James as she hugged him.
'Mum! I can't give a professor love!'
'But you know Neville-'
James rolled his eyes.
'Outside, yeah, but at school he's Professor Longbottom, isn't he? I can't walk into Herbology and give him love....”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

J.K. Rowling
“You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry,
Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true,
And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin,
You'll make your real friends,
These cunning folks use any means
To achieve their ends.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

J.K. Rowling
“Harry picked it up and stared at it, his heart twanging like a giant elastic band. No one, ever, in his whole life, had written to him. Who would? He had no friends, no other relatives 鈥� he didn鈥檛 belong to the library, so he鈥檇 never even got rude notes asking for books back. Yet here it was, a letter, addressed so plainly there could be no mistake:

Mr. H. Potter
The Cupboard under the Stairs
4 Privet Drive
Little Whinging
Surrey

J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

J.K. Rowling
“Then he heard a terrible cry that pulled at his insides, that expressed agony of a kind that neither flame nor curse could cause, and he stood up, swaying, more frightened than he had been that day, more frightened, perhaps, than he had been in his whole life...”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

J.K. Rowling
“A thousand years or more ago,
When I was newly sewn,
There lived four wizards of renown,
Whose name are still well-known:
Bold Gryffindor from wild moor,
Fair Ravlenclaw from glen,
Sweet Hufflepuff from valley broad,
Shrewd Slytherin from fen.
They share a wish, a hope, a dream,
They hatched a daring plan,
To educate young sorcerers,
Thus Hogwarts school began.
Now each of these four founders
Formed their own house, for each
Did value different virtues,
In the ones they had to teach.
By Gryffindor, the bravest were
Prized far beyond the rest;
For Ravenclaw, the cleverest
Would always be the best;
For Hufflepuff, hardworkers were
Most worthy of admission;
And power-hungry Slytherin
Loved those of great ambition.
While still alive they did divide
Their favourates from the throng,
Yet how to pick the worthy ones
When they were dead and gone?
'Twas Gryffindor who found the way,
He whipped me off his head
The founders put some brains in me
So I could choose instead!
Now slip me snug around your ears,
I've never yet been wrong,
I'll have alook inside your mind
And tell where you belong!”
JK Rowling

“Don't let the muggles get you down.”
JK Rowling, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

“In this lifetime we are like Superman who must remain disguised as the nerdy newspaper journalist Clark Kent, or Harry Potter and his friends who are not allowed to do magic while they are on holiday, away from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry... but even Harry Potter and Clark Kent get to tap into their 鈥榮pecial powers鈥� once in a while, especially when the going gets tough.”
Anthon St. Maarten, Divine Living: The Essential Guide To Your True Destiny

Boris Johnson
“In the words of Mr Thierry Coup of Warner Bros: 'We are taking the most iconic and powerful moments of the stories and putting them in an immersive environment. It is taking the theme park experience to a new level.' And of course I wish Thierry and his colleagues every possible luck, and I am sure it will be wonderful. But I cannot conceal my feelings; and the more I think of those millions of beaming kids waving their wands and scampering the Styrofoam turrets of Hogwartse_STmk, and the more I think of those millions of poor put-upon parents who must now pay to fly to Orlando and pay to buy wizard hats and wizard cloaks and wizard burgers washed down with wizard meade_STmk, the more I grind my teeth in jealous irritation.

Because the fact is that Harry Potter is not American. He is British. Where is Diagon Alley, where they buy wands and stuff? It is in London, and if you want to get into the Ministry of Magic you disappear down a London telephone box. The train for Hogwarts goes from King's Cross, not Grand Central Station, and what is Harry Potter all about? It is about the ritual and intrigue and dorm-feast excitement of a British boarding school of a kind that you just don't find in America. Hogwarts is a place where children occasionally get cross with each other鈥攏ot 'mad'鈥攁nd where the situation is usually saved by a good old British sense of HUMOUR. WITH A U. RIGHT? NOT HUMOR. GOTTIT?”
Boris Johnson

“Scars can come in handy. I have one myself above my left knee that is a perfect map of the London Underground”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

J.K. Rowling
“He wanted to be stopped, to be dragged back, to be sent back home... But he was home. Hogwarts was the first and best home he had known. He and Voldemort and Snape, the abandoned boys, had all found home here...”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

“At some point, a cake was produced, with red and gold Gryffindor icing, and twelve pink candles. When Remus cut it open (all the while encouraged to make a wish, but not able to think of one single thing he wanted) he was amazed to find that it was made up of four different flavours 鈥� a quarter chocolate, a quarter lemon drizzle, a quarter Victoria sponge and a quarter coffee and walnut.

鈥淟ike your toast.鈥� Sirius grinned, looking thrilled at the expression of surprise on Remus鈥� face, 鈥淭hought you might get bored if it was all one flavour.”
MsKingBean89, All The Young Dudes - Volume One: Years 1 - 4

“It's like we're in Hogwarts for space, but instead of teaching us magic, they're preparing us to get kicked off the planet.”
Alexandra Monir, The Final Six

J.K. Rowling
“The singing grew louder as they approached the church. It made Harry鈥檚 throat constrict, it reminded him so forcefully of Hogwarts, of Peeves bellowing rude versions of carols from inside suits of armour, of the Great Hall鈥檚 twelve Christmas trees, of Dumbledore wearing a bonnet he had won in a cracker, of Ron in a hand-knitted sweater鈥�”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

J.K. Rowling
“All these people saying they never got their Hogwarts letter: you got the letter. You went to Hogwarts. We were all there together.”
J.K. Rowling

J.D. Vance
“...intricate stone carvings and wood trim gave the law school an almost medieval feel. You'd even sometimes hear that we went to HLS (Hogwarts Law School).”
J.D. Vance, Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis

J.K. Rowling
“I don鈥檛 think there鈥檚 any harm at all in allowing a kid to fantasize. In fact, I think to stop people from fantasizing is a very destructive thing indeed.”
JK Rowling

“From its outside wall half a luggage trolley protruded: platform 93/4 was where the Hogwarts Express docked.”
Mick Herron, Slow Horses

J.K. Rowling
“You all know, of course, that Hogwarts was founded over a thousand years ago- the precise date is uncertain- by the four greatest witches and wizards of the age. The four school Houses are named after them: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin. They built this castle together, far from prying Muggle eyes, for it was an age when magic was feared by common people, and witches and wizards suffered much persecution."
He paused, gazed blearily around the room, and continued.
"For a few years, the founders worked in harmony together, seeking out youngsters who showed signs of magic and bringing them to the castle to be educated. But then disagreements sprang up between them. A rift began to grow between Slytherin and the others. Slytherin wished to be more selective about the students admitted to Hogwarts. He believed that magical learning should be kept within all-magic families. He disliked taking students of Muggle parentage, believing them to be untrustworthy. After a while, there was a serious argument on the subject between Slytherin and Gryffindor, and Slytherin left the school."
Professor Binns paused again, pursing his lips, looking like a wrinkled old tortoise.
"Reliable historical sources tell us this much," he said. "But these honest facts have been obscured by the fanciful legend of the Chamber of Secrets. The story goes that Slytherin had built a hidden chamber in the castle, of which the other founders knew nothing.
Slytherin, according to legend, sealed the Chamber of Secrets so that none would be able to open it until his own true heir arrived at the school. The heir alone would be able to unseal the Chamber of Secrets, unleash the horror within, and use it to purge the school of all who were unworthy to study magic.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

“Hermione鈥檚 not the only one willing to open a book, you know? It鈥檚 textbooks I don鈥檛 care for鈥� hundred pages of twaddle for every useful bit.鈥�

McGonagall replied archly, 鈥淭hat 鈥榯waddle鈥� represents a thousand years of intensive study and improvements in practice, Potter. Our people have deified the Hogwarts founders for far too long, and I ask that you reject that example. Rowena Ravenclaw, for all her greatness, could not have performed much of third-year transfiguration鈥娾€斺€奺ven the tools for constructing spells at that level did not yet exist.”
Mike [FP], Harry Potter and the Last Horcrux

J.K. Rowling
“And suddenly, their wardrobes were empty, their trunks were packed, Neville鈥檚 toad was found lurking in a corner of the toilets; notes were handed out to all students, warning them not to use magic over the holidays (鈥業 always hope they鈥檒l forget to give us these,鈥� said Fred Weasley sadly).”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

J.K. Rowling
“Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light,”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

J.K. Rowling
“For in dreams, we enter a world that is entirely our own”
J.K. Rowling

J.K. Rowling
“It is not our abilities that show what we truly are鈥� it is our choices.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

J.K. Rowling
“Harry Potter is valiant and bold! He has braved so many dangers already! But Dobby has come to protect Harry Potter, to warn him, even if he does have to shut his ears in the oven door later.... Harry Potter must not go back to Hogwarts.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

J.K. Rowling

“... And now, at Hogwarts, terrible things are to happen, are perhaps happening already, and Dobby cannot let Harry Potter stay here now that history is to repeat itself, now that the Chamber of Secrets is open once more -”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

“Stanford was like Hogwarts with sunshine.”
Sarah Watson, Most Likely

Sol Luckman
“We must shift our perceptions, beliefs, intentions, and emotions. We must harness the power of the observer effect to induce a quantum change in the observed world. We must return to our center and resurrect our innate ability to perform miracles with only the tool of our consciousness.

This is true magic, not something out of Hogwarts. We鈥檙e more than capable of waving our wands over the manifest world and making its madness disappear. But first, we have to realize that we鈥檙e born wizards, each and every one of us. There are no Muggles here.”
Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality
