I've always loved Harry Potter.
I've read and reread the books, taken every sorting quiz on the internet and religiously watch Freeform when its a Harry Potter weekend. Normally I try to keep my geeky side under wraps but I can't when it comes to the wizarding world. J.K. Rowling's universe is the perfect escape from the real world. The wizarding world is one where anything is possible and people believe in magic, miracles, and the power of hope. I'm one of those people who will never outgrow the series.
It has seen me through too much to just leave it behind. Harry, Hermione, and Ron have been my companions since middle school. They have helped me through hard times and continue to do so. I've caught myself thinking "If a bunch of kids can repeatedly save the world, why can't you pass your chemistry final?"
Here are some of the most magical lines from Harry Potter for every witch and wizard (and the muggles, too):
1. “The thing about growing up with Fred and George... is that you sort of start thinking anything's possible if you've got enough nerve.”
2. “If you want to know what a man’s like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.”
3. "What's comin' will come, an' we'll meet it when it does."
4. “Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it.”
5. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good"
6. "Don't let the muggles get you down"
7. “Really Hagrid, if you are holding out for universal popularity, I'm afraid you will be in this cabin for a very long time"
8. "Mr. and Mrs. Dursley of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much"
9. "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live"
10. "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the light"
11. "Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself"
12. Every human life is worth the same and every life is worth saving"
13. "After all this time? Always"
14. “The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well.”
15. “You care so much you feel as though you will bleed to death with the pain of it.”
16. “We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.”
17. “You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be!”
18. “One can never have enough socks.”
