    “Hang on . . .” Harry muttered to Ron. “There’s an empty chair at the staff table. . . . Where’s Snape?”
    "Maybe he's ill!" said Ron hopefully.
    “Maybe he’s left,” said Harry, “because he missed out on the Defense Against the Dark Arts job again!”
    “Or he might have been sacked!” said Ron enthusiastically. “I mean, everyone hates him —”
    “Or maybe,” said a very cold voice right behind them, “he’s waiting to hear why you two didn’t arrive on the school train.”

    “Are you trying to weasel out of showing us any of this stuff?' said Zacharias Smith.
    'Here's an idea,' said Ron loudly, 'why don't you shut your mouth?'
    'Well, we've all turned up to learn from him, and now he's telling us he can't really do any of it,' he said.
    'That's not what he said,' said Fred Weasley.
    '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.

    “Only one pair was still battling, apparently unaware of the new arrival. Harry saw Sirius duck Bellatrix's jet of red light: he was laughing at her.

    'Come on, you can do better than that!' he yelled, his voice echoing around the cavernous room.

    The second jet of light hit him squarely in the chest.

    The laughter had not quite died from his face, but his eyes widened in shock.”

    “Can you think what the Mirror of Erised shows us all?" Harry shook his head.

    "Let me explain. The happiest man on earth would be able to use the Mirror of Erised like a normal mirror, that is, he would look into it and see himself exactly as he is. Does that help."
    Harry thought. Then he said slowly, "It shows us what we want... whatever we want..."
    "Yes and no," said Dumbledore quietly.
    "It shows us nothing more or less than the deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts. You, who have never known your family, see them standing around you. Ronald Weasley, who has always been overshadowed by his brothers, sees himself standing alone, the best of all of them. However, this mirror will give us neither knowledge or truth. Men have wasted away before it, entranced by what they have seen, or been driven mad, not knowing if what it shows is real or even possible.

    "The Mirror will be moved to a new home tomorrow, Harry, and I ask you not to go looking for it again. If you ever do run across it, you will now be prepared. It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that. Now, why don't you put that admirable cloak back on and get off to bed.”

    “Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
    A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
    Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
    And when it's morning again, they'll wash away
    Here it's safe, here it's warm
    Here the daisies guard you from every harm
    Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true
    Here is the place where I love you.”
    Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games

    “I'm coming back into focus when Caesar asks him if he has a girlfriend back home. Peeta hesitates, then gives an unconvincing shake of his head.

    Handsome lad like you. There must be some special girl. Come on, what’s her name?" says Caesar.

    Peeta sighs. "Well, there is this one girl. I’ve had a crush on her ever since I can remember. But I’m pretty sure she didn’t know I was alive until the reaping."

    Sounds of sympathy from the crowd. Unrequited love they can relate to.

    She have another fellow?" asks Caesar.

    I don’t know, but a lot of boys like her," says Peeta.

    So, here’s what you do. You win, you go home. She can’t turn you down then, eh?" says Caesar encouragingly.

    I don’t think it’s going to work out. Winning...won’t help in my case," says Peeta.

    Why ever not?" says Caesar, mystified.

    Peeta blushes beet red and stammers out. "Because...because...she came here with me.”
    Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games

    “Who're you going with, then?" said Ron.
    "Angelina," said Fred promptly, without a trace of embarrassment.
    "What?" said Ron, taken aback. "You've already asked her?"
    "Good point," said Fred. He turned his head and called across the common room, "Oi! Angelina!"
    Angelina, who had been chatting with Alicia Spinnet near the fire, looked over at him.
    "What?" She called back.
    "Want to come to the ball with me?"
    Angelina gave Fred a sort of appraising look.
    "All right, then," she said, and she turned back to Alicia and carried on chatting with a bit of a grin on her face.
    "There you go," said Fred to Harry and Ron, "piece of cake.”

    “I DON'T CARE!" Harry yelled at them, snatching up a lunascope and throwing it into the fireplace. "I'VE HAD ENOUGH, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH, I WANT OUT, I WANT IT TO END, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!"
    "You do care," said Dumbledore. He had not flinched or made a single move to stop Harry demolishing his office. His expression was calm, almost detached. "You care so much you feel as though you will bleed to death with the pain of it.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    “Ah" said Dumbledore gently, "Yes I thought we might hit that little snag!"
    "Snag?" said Fudge, his voice still vibrating with joy. "I see no snag, Dumbledore!"
    "Well," said Dumbledore apologetically, "I'm afraid I do."
    "Oh, really?"
    "Well it's just that you seem to be labouring under the delusion that I am going to -- come quietly. I am afraid I am not going to come quietly at all, Cornelius. I have absolutely no intention of being sent to Azkaban. I could break out, of course -- but what a waste of time, and frankly, I can think of a whole host of things I would rather be doing.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    “Did you like question ten, Moony?" asked Sirius as they emerged into the entrance hall.
    "Loved it," said Lupin briskly. "Give five signs that identify the werewolf. Excellent question."
    "D'you think you managed to get all the signs?" said James in tones of mock concern.
    "Think I did," said Lupin seriously, as they joined the crowd thronging around the front doors eager to get out into the sunlit grounds. "One: He's sitting on my chair. Two: He's wearing my clothes. Three: His name's Remus Lupin...”

    “Oh please," said Zacharias Smith, rolling his eyes and folding his arms. "I don't think Expelliarmus is exactly going to help us against You-Know-Who, do you?"
    "I've used it against him," Harry said quietly. "It saved my life last June.”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
