Killing is not so easy as the innocent believe. - J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

"Am I about to discover where you, Ron, and Hermione disappeared to while you were supposed to be in the back room of Fred and George's shop?''How did you...?''Harry, please. You're talking to the man who raised Fred and George."

"Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure."

"I am not worried, Harry,"said Dumbledore, his voice a little stronger despite the freezing water. "I am with you."

"Well you seemed too busy to call him a prat and I thought someone should."

"Yes, alive,” said Fudge. “That is — I don’t know — is a man alive if he can’t be killed? I don’t really understand it, and Dumbledore won’t explain properly — but anyway, he’s certainly got a body and is walking and talking and killing, so I suppose, for the purposes of our discussion, yes, he’s alive."
