DDNT Staff is proud to present our newest interactive contest, known now (just made up by me :D) as
Queenly Quotes!
So, basically, this is a contest for you to submit all of your favorite HP quotes from all five books. You even earn points for doing this. So, you have fun and earn points, right? How cool is that?! :D Any quote is allowed, except repeats of those already posted in this thread.
Each quote will earn you two points. Submit as many quotes as you like. The person that submits the most quotes will earn an additional fifteen points! This is a huge point oppurtunity, so, go and scour for quotes!
Other notes: Staff may participate, but to earn points, they first must post at least ten quotes. Each quote after that will earn them points. Everyone can post their quotes in this thread.
Thanks for your time,

Well, here are just a few quoetes that I found.
"No," she said, her voice quivering with anger, "but I will write to your mother."--Hermione Granger, OotP.
"Just because it's taken you three years to notice, Ron, doesn't mean no one else has spotted I'm a girl!"--Hermione Granger, OotP.
"Are you sure that's a real spell? Well it's not very good is it? I've tried a few simple spells myself and it's all worked for me. Nobody in my family's magic at all, it was ever such a surprise when I got my letter, but I was ever so pleased, of course, it's the best school of witchcraft there is I've heard - I've learened all the course books by heart of course. I just hope it will be enough - I'm Hermione Granger, by the way, who are you?" --Hermione Granger, Sorcere's Stone.
"I hope you're pleased with yourselves. We could all have been killed-or worse, expelled. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to bed." --Hermione Granger, Sorecere's Stone.
"Ron," said Hermione in a dignified voice, "you are the most insensitive wart I have ever had the misfortune to meet." --Hermione Granger, I can't remeber because I had it saved on my computer :D
"At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in. They got in on pure talent." --Hermione Granger, CoS.
"Harry--you're a great wizard, you know." "I'm not as good as you," said Harry, very embarrassed, as she let him go. "Me!" said Hermione. "Books! And cleverness! There are more important things--friendship and bravery and--oh Harry--be careful!" --Hermione Granger, Sorcerer's Stone.
"Twitchy little ferret, aren't you Malfoy?"--Hermione Granger, GoF.
"Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn't mean we all have."--Hermione Granger, OotP.
"All those poor elves I haven't set free yet, having to stay over during Christmas because there aren't enough hats!" --Hermione Granger, OotP
"I'm trying to decide what what curse to use on Malfoy, sir," said Harry fiercely.--Harry Potter, OotP.
"Yes- of course- but there's no wood!" Hermione cried, wringing her hands.--Hermione Granger, Sorcere's Stone.
"Make way for the heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard [Harry] coming through..." --Fred and George Weasley, CoS.
"Would you like us to clean out your ears for you?" inquired George, pulling a long and lethal-looking metal instrument from inside one of the Zonko's bags.
"Or any part of your body, really, we're not fussy where we stick this," said Fred--Fred and George Weasley, OotP.
I'll find more later ;)

| Fred and George, however, found all this very funny. They went out of their way to march ahead of Harry down the corridors, shouting, "Make way for the Heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard coming through..." |
CoS
| QUOTE |
Harry learned quickly not to feel to sorry for the gnomes. He decided to just drop the first one just over the hedge, but the gnome, sensing weakness, sank his razor sharp teeth into Harry's finger and he had a hard job shaking it off until –
"Wow, Harry – that must have been fifty feet!" |
CoS
| QUOTE |
George looked up in time to see Malfoy pretending to faint with terror again.
"That little git," he said calmly. "He wasn't so cocky last night when the dementors were down our end of the train. Came running into our compartment, didn't he, Fred?"
"Nearly wet himself," said Fred, with a contemptuous glance at Malfoy. |
-PoA
| QUOTE |
Percy had what were possibly the least helpful words of comfort.
"They make a fuss about Hogsmeade, but I assure you, Harry, it's not all it's cracked up to be," he said seriously. "All right, the sweetshop's rather good, and Zonko's Joke Shop's frankly dangerous, and yes, the Shrieking Shack alway's worth a visit, but really, Harry, apart from that, you're not missing anything." |
Percy PoA

"Where is Wood?" said Harry, suddenly realizing he wasn't there.
"Still in the showers," said Fred. "We think he's trying to drown himself." |

"Yeah, someone might slip dragon dung in it again, eh, Perce?" said Fred. "That was a sample of fertilizer from Norway!" said Percy, going very red in the face. "It was nothing personal!"
"It was," Fred whispered to Harry as they got up from the table. "We sent it." |
GoF
| QUOTE |
One of them was a very old wizard who was wearing a long flowery nightgown. The other was clearly a Ministry wizard; he was holding out a pair of pinstriped trousers and almost crying with exasperation.
"Just put them on, Archie, there's a good chap. You can't walk around like that, the Muggle at the gate's already getting suspicious–"
"I bought this in a Muggle shop," said the old wizard stubbornly. "Muggles wear them."
"Muggle women wear them, Archie, not the men, they wear these," said the Ministry wizard, and he brandished the pinstriped trousers.
"I'm not putting them on," said old Archie in indignation. "I like a healthy breeze 'round my privates, thanks." |

As they climed the staircase, the photos of various Healers called out to them, diagnosing odd complaints and suggesting horrible remedies. Ron was seriously affronted when a medieval wizard called out that he clearly had a bad case of spattergroit.
"And what's that supposed to be?" he asked angrily, as the Healer pursued him through six more portraits, shoving the occupants out of the way.
"'Tis a most grievous affliction of the skin, young master, that will leave you pockmarked and more gruesome even than you are now–"
"Watch who you're calling gruesome!" said Ron, his ears turning red.

"I have not got spattergroit!"

Hermione looked very shocked. "But you'll get into terrible trouble!"
"Not until Montague reappears, and that could take weeks, I dunno where we sent him," said Fred coolly. "Anyway, we've decided that we don't care about getting into trouble anymore."
"Have you ever?" asked Hermione.
"'Course we have," said George. "Never been expelled, have we?"
"We might have put a toe across occaisonally," said George.
"But we've always stopped short of causing real mayhem," said Fred.

The fireworks continued to burn and spread all over the school that afternoon. Though they caused plenty of disruption, the other teachers did not seem to mind them very much.
"Dear, dear," said Professor McGonagall sardonically, as one of the dragons soared around her classroom, emitting loud bangs and exhalting flame. "Miss Brown, would you mind running along to the headmistress and informing her that we have an escaped firework in our classroom?"
"Thank you so much, Professor!" said Professor Flitwick in his squeaky little voice. "I could have got rid of the sparklers myself, of course, but I wasn't sure whether I had the authority..."

"You two," she went on, gazing down at Fred and George, "are about to learn what happens to wrongdoers in my school."
"You know what?" said Fred. "I don't think we are."
He turned to his twin.
"George," said Fred, "I think we've outgrown a full-time education."
"Yeah, I've been feeling that way myself," said George lightly.
"Time to test our talents in the real world, d'you reckon?" asked Fred.
"Definitely," said George.
And before Umbridge could say a word, they raised their wants and said together, "Accio Brooms!"
Harry heard a loud crash somewhere in the distance. Looking to his left he ducked just in time -- Fred and George's broomsticks, one still trailing the heavy chain and iron peg with which Umbridge had fastened them to the wall, were hurtling along the corridor toward their owners. They turned left, streaked down the stairs, and stopped sharply in front of the twins, the chain clattering loudly on the flagged stone floor.
"We won't be seeing you," Fred told Professor Umbridge, swinging his leg over his broomstick.
"Yeah, don't bother to keep in touch," said George, mounting his own.
Fred looked around at the assembled students, and at the silent, watchful crowd.
"If anybody fancies buying a Portable Swamp, as demonstrated upstairs, come to number ninety-three Diagon Alley – Weasley's Wizard Wheezes," he said in a loud voice. "Our new premesis!"
"Special discounts to Hogwarts students who swear they're going to use our products to get rid of this old bat," said George, pointing at Professor Umbridge.
"STOP THEM!" shrieked Umbridge, but it was too late. As the Inquisitorial Squad closed in, Fred and George kicked off from the floor, shooting fifteen feet into the air, the iron peg swinging dangerously below. Fred looked across the hall at the poltergeist bobbing on his level above the crowd.
"Give her hell from us, Peeves."
"And Peeves, whom Harry had never seen take an order from a student before, swept his belled hat from his head and sprang to a salute as Fred and George wheeled about to tumultuous applause from the students below and sped out of the open front doors into the glorious sunset. |

They had reached the foot of the marble staircase. A line of fourth year Ravenclaws was crossing the entrance hall; they caught sight of Harry and hurried to form a tighter group, as though frightened he might attack stragglers.

Announcement:
Due to the overwhelming success of this contest, which is truly great, I am going ahead and working on adding some of the quotes to the quote generator script I have setup on notepad on my computer. So, I have removed all the points from the first post for a couple of reasons. As I add quotes, I will mark them with a green subheading. Please do not remove this. All quote repeats will not earn you points, and I will strike-through them in your posts when found. All quotes that are incomplete (do not have the quoter or book) will be marked with a red subheading. I'll slowly but surely be working on this, so keep quoting, my friends! Points will be counted at the end of this contest. Thank you. :)
