Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban quotes

  • Hermione: [gazing at a crystal ball] Can I give it a try?

    Professor Trelawney: Yes, sure!

    Hermione: The grim. Possibly.

    Professor Trelawney: You know, my dear, the moment I looked into your eyes I knew that you did not have the mind for the noble art of Divination.

    [looking at her palm]

    Professor Trelawney: See? Right here. You may be young in years but the heart that beats beneath your bosom is as shriveled as an old maid's, your soul as dry as the pages of the books to which you so desperately cleave.

    [Hermione gets up and leaves, angrily]

    Professor Trelawney: Have I said something?

  • Sirius Black: Sorry about the bite, I reckon that twinges a bit.

    Ron: A bit? A bit? You almost tore my leg off!

    Sirius Black: I *was* going for the rat. Normally, I have a very sweet disposition as a dog. In fact, more than once, James suggested that I make the change permanent. The tail I could live with. But the fleas? They're murder.
