“He accused me of being Dumbledore's man through and through."
"How very rude of him."

When Dumbledore spoke, however, his voice was quite steady.
"I am very touched, Harry.”

“Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.”
