I'm trying to clean out my facebook "favorite quotes" section, so they're getting dumped here...
"I make mistakes like the next man. In fact, being — forgive me — rather cleverer than most men, my mistakes tend to be correspondingly huger." -Dumbledore
Samir: No one in this country can ever pronounce my name right. It's not that hard: Na-ee-ana-jaad. Nayanajaad.
Michael Bolton: Yeah, well at least your name isn't Michael Bolton.
Samir: You know there's nothing wrong with that name.
Michael Bolton: There was nothing wrong with it... until that no-talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys.
Samir: Hmm... well why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael?
Michael Bolton: No way! Why should I change? He's the one who sucks.
"Sometimes you need a few drinks to fall in love." -Gavin DeGraw
"All human actions have 1 or more of these 7 causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason, passion, and desire." -Aristotle
"Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can't see where it keeps its brain." -Arthur Weasley

"It is not always the same thing to be a good man, and a good citizen." -Aristotle
"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 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/Those cunning folk use any means to achieve their ends." -Hogwarts Sorting Hat (in the 1st year)
"Welcome! Welcome to the new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! Thank you!" -Albus Dumbledore
"What happens if I wave my wand and nothing happens?"
"Throw it away and punch him on the nose." -Harry & Ron
"Can you believe our luck? Of all the trees we could've hit, we had to get one that hits back." -Ron
"But why's she got to go to the library?"
"Because that's what Hermione does. When in doubt, go to the library." -Harry & Ron
"It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." -Dumbledore
"It's only a game, isn't it?"
"Hermione, you're good on feelings and stuff, but you just don't understand about Quidditch."
"Maybe not, but at least my happiness doesn't depend on Ron's goalkeeping ability." -Hermione& Harry
"Indeed, your failure to understand that there are things much worse than death has always been your greatest weakness." -Dumbledore, to Voldemort
"Greatness inspires envy, envy engenders spite, spite spawns lies." -Tom Riddle
"Perhaps it is because these are, in their way, more real than reality. They touch a chord. They go to the deep things - life and death, good and evil, struggle, heroism. They are, in one word, exciting..." -Irish Independent editorial, praising (film releases of) "Harry Potter" & "Lord of the Rings"
"Time is never time at all...you can never, ever leave without leaving a piece of you...and our lives are forever changed, they will never be the same...the more you change, the less you feel." - Billy Corgan, "Tonight, Tonight", Smashing Pumpkins, Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.
"Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit." -Aristotle
"For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command, or faith a dictum. I am my own God. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us." - Charles Bukowski
