Quote Game

I've seen this in a lot of forums and groups, and it never gets boring. The first person (that's me) thinks of a quote from the Harry Potter books and the next person to post with the name of the character who said it picks another, and so on.

Rules:

1: Quotes can be from any HP book
2: They can't be from the films (unless the book is quoted word for word in there)
3: I'm watching the topic (with the books on my lap!). If you get an answer wrong, I'll post with the right one and re-state your quote for the next person. You don't have anything to lose.
4: When posting a quote, make sure it's correct. We don't want any confusion.
5: Don't make it obvious, but not so hard no-one gets it.

I think it was Dumbledor " Like you said, nothing to lose, right?

Sorry, but that was Remus Lupin, talking about his "furry little problem."

It was Remus.

Anyone know who said this?

I'm tempted to say me.


"Me!"


But knowing my tiny track record, its probably not XD

Anyone know who said this?

I am going to take a wild punt at this and say Ron Weasley, I bet I am wrong but hey it was a try…lol.

yeah I'm pretty sure that wasA weasley.

I can't actually find that quote in the books. Arica, who was it, and where?

Rules Update:

Don't use quotes from DH, because sadly the mod of the thread (me) isn't familiar enough with it to be able to mod properly - so for now, please don't quote it. I'll let you know when it's safe to. (And it's not just me, I'm sure a lot of people haven't read it more than a couple of times yet, so using quotes from it isn't really fair.)

My 15-year-old is disinclined to work for her GCSEs, saying her time is better spent preening

herself in preparation for assignations with her delightful, diligent, privately educated, moneyed

boyfriend. She insists the money spent on nail-painting, hair-colouring and the like is an

investment and will be more than repaid when he marries her. Is she deluding herself?

¡¡¡¡Dear Curious Mother,

¡¡¡¡Surprising as this may seem in the 21st century, your daughter's strategy is not unusual.

Evidence on speed-dating gathered by the economists Mich¨¨le Belot and Marco Francesconi shows that

women are attracted by rich men, while men focus more on a woman's physical appearance. Lena Edlund,

another economist,has found that in the areas of her native Sweden where the wealthiest men live,

women of prime marriageable age are over-represented¡£

¡¡¡¡However, your daughter is only 15; for Edlund, ¡°prime marriageable age¡± is 25-44. Your

daughter is either going to have to get her hooks into this chap unusually early, or she is going to

have to keep him on the boil for another decade ¨C a lot of nail-painting¡£

¡¡¡¡Not only is she concentrating her investments into a single asset by abandoning her education,

but she may even be making her main goal harder to achieve. Belot and Francesconi discovered that a

strong social trend towards ¡°assortative mating¡± means that although educated, high-achieving men

are not interested in marrying a rich woman, they do like educated high-achieving women, rather than

shallow girls with shiny nails¡£

¡¡¡¡Your daughter should learn to work hard and look good at the same time. Not only will it advance

her immediate goals, it will also ¨C sadly ¨C stand her in good stead for the rest of her life¡£

Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids now, one might crash into Earth and destroy

life as we know it, say some scientists.
¡¡¡¡Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids that race across the night sky. Most orbit the

sun far from Earth and don¡¯t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits

put them on a collision course with Earth.

¡¡¡¡Buy $50 million worth of new telescopes right now. Then spend $10 million a year for the next 25

year5s to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we¡¯

ll have a way to change its course.
¡¡¡¡Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons. But the cost wouldn¡¯t

be cheap.
replica rolex,
¡¡¡¡Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk re: 1) How likely the event

is; and 2) How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to

destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare¡ªbut if one did

fall, it would be the end of the world. ¡°If we don¡¯t take care of these big asteroids, they¡¯ll

take care of us,¡± says one scientist. ¡°It¡¯s that simple.¡±
¡¡¡¡The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets of nuclear weapons

sitting around on Earth? ¡°The world has less to fear from doomsday rocks than from a great nuclear

fleet set against them,¡± said a New York Times article.
