Notable Quotes
The Sorting Hat
"Oh, you may not
think I'm prett,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat the me.
You can
keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's
nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You
might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindor apart;
You
might belong in Hufflepuffs,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;
Or
yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you're a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or
perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To acheive their ends,
So
put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have non)
For I'm a Thinking
Cap!" p.88
The Hogwarts Song
"Hogwart, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,
Teach
us something please,
Whether we be old or and bald
Or young with scabby knees,
our heads could do with filling
With
some interesting stuff,
For now they're bare and full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff,
So teach us things worth
knowing,
Bring back what we've forgot,
Just do your best, we'll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot."
"Hermione
was the last persone to do anything against the rules, and here she was pretending she had, to get them out of trouble. It
