Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 Quotes

Hermione Granger There were once three brothers who were traveling along a lonely winding road, at twilight. In time, the brothers reached a river too treacherous to pass, but being learned in the magical arts, the three brothers simply waved their wands and made a bridge. Before they could cross, however, they found their path blocked by a hooded figure. It was Death, and he felt cheated. Cheated because travelers would normally drown in the river, but Death was cunning. He pretended to congratulate the three brothers on their magic and said that each had earned a prize for having been clever enough to evade him. The oldest asked for a wand more powerful than any in existence, so Death fashioned him one from an elder tree that stood nearby. The second brother decided he wanted to humiliate Death even further and asked for the power to recall loved ones from the grave, so Death plucked a stone from the river and offered it to him. Finally, Death turned to the third brother. A humble man, he asked for something that would allow him to go forth from that place without being followed by Death. And so it was that Death reluctantly handed over his own Cloak of Invisibility. The first brother traveled to a distant village. While with the Elder Wand in hand, he killed a wizard with whom he had once quarreled. Drunk with the power that the Elder Wand had given him, he bragged of his invincibility. But that night, another wizard stole the wand and slit the brother's throat for good measure. And so Death took the first brother for his own. The second brother journeyed to his home, where he took the stone and turned it thrice in hand. To his delight, the girl he had once hoped to marry before her untimely death appeared before him. Yet, soon she turned sad and cold for she did not belong in the mortal world. Driven mad with hopeless longing, the second brother killed himself so as to join her. And so Death took the second brother. As for the third brother, Death searched for many years but was never able to find him. Only when he attained a great age did the youngest brother shed the Cloak of Invisibility and give it to his son. He then greeted Death as an old friend and went with him gladly, departing this life as equals.

Rufus Scrimgeour These are dark times, there is no denying. Our world has perhaps faced no greater threat than it does today. But I say this to our citizenry: We, ever your servants, will continue to defend your liberty and repel the forces that seek to take it from you! Your Ministry remains...strong.

Bill Weasley Mad-Eye's dead. Mundungus took one look at Voldemort and disapparated.

Ollivander I believed a different wand would work, I swear!

Neville Longbottom Hey, losers, ] isn't here.

Xenophilius Lovegood The Elder Wand, the most powerful wand ever made. The Resurrection Stone. The Cloak of Invisibility. Together, they make the Deathly Hallows. Together, they make one master of death.

Lucius Malfoy You dare to talk to me like that IN MY OWN HOUSE?!

Bellatrix Lestrange Cissy, put the boys in the cellar! I want to have a little conversation with this one, girl-to-girl!

Fred How you feeling, Georgie?

George Saint-like.

Fred Come again?

George Saint-like. I'm holy... I’m holy, Fred. Get it?

Fred The whole wide world of ear-related humor, and you go for, "I'm holy"? You're pathetic.

George Reckon I'm still better looking than you.

Moody All right, Granger. As discussed.

Harry Blimey, Hermione.

Moody Straight in here if you please. For those of you who haven't taken Polyjuice Potion before, fair warning: it tastes like goblin piss.

Fred Have lots of experience with that, do you, Mad-Eye? ...Just trying to diffuse the tension.

Fred and George Wow, we're identical!

Moody Not yet, you're not.

George Haven't got anything a bit more sporting, have you?

Fred Yeah, I don't really fancy this color.

Moody Well, fancy this, you're not you. So shut it and strip.

Mundungus All right, all right.

Moody You'll need to change too, Potter.

Fleur Bill, look away. I'm hideous.

Ron I knew she was lying about that tattoo.

Hermione Harry, your eyesight really is awful.

Moody Right, then. We'll be pairing off. Each Potter will have a protector. Mundungus, stick tight to me. I wanna keep an eye on ya. As for Harry...

Everyone Yes?

Moody The real Harry. Where the devil are you, anyway?

Harry Here.

Moody You'll ride with Hagrid.

Hagrid I brought you here 16 years ago when you were no bigger than a Bowtruckle. Seems only right that I should be the one to take you away now.

Voldemort Severus. I was beginning to worry you had lost your way. Come, we've saved you a seat. You bring news, I trust?

Snape It will happen Saturday next, at nightfall.

Yaxley I heard differently, my Lord. Dawlish, the Auror, has let slip that the Potter boy will not be moved until the 30th of this month, the day before he turns 17.

Snape This is a false trail. The Auror office no longer plays any part in the protection of Harry Potter. Those closest to him believe we have infiltrated the Ministry.

Squat Death Eater Well! They've got that right, then, haven't they?

Harry This one's name is Rowle. He was on the Astronomy Tower the night Snape killed Dumbledore.

Ron This is Dolohov. I recognize him from the wanted posters. So, what we gonna do with you, eh? Kill us if it was turned round, wouldn't you?

Harry If we kill them, they'll know we were here.

Hermione Ron.

Ron Suppose he did Mad-Eye. How would you feel then?

Harry It's better we wipe their memories.

Ginny Seems silly, doesn't it? A wedding. Given everything that's going on.

Harry Maybe that's the best reason to have it. Because of everything that's going on.

George Morning.

Ron Weasley Fine. I get it. I saw you two the other night.

Bill Hello, Harry. Bill Weasley.

Harry Oh. Pleasure to meet you.

Fred He was never always this handsome.

George Dead ugly.

Bill True enough.

Dobby the House Elf Dobby has no master. Dobby is a free elf. And Dobby has come to save Harry Potter and his friends!

Harry Potter Nobody else is going to die. Not for me.

Ron Weasley We won't last two days without her. Don't tell her I said that.

Dobby the House Elf Dobby has come to rescue Harry Potter, of course. Dobby will always be there for Harry Potter.

Lord Voldemort As inspiring as I find your bloodlust, Bellatrix, I must be the one to kill Harry Potter.

Dobby the House Elf Harry Potter. So long it's been.

Hermione Granger Harry, there's someone watching us. By the church.

Ron Weasley Mary, go home. Get the kids. We have to get out of the country, understand? Mary, do as I say!

Harry Potter This is where I was born. I'm not returning as someone else.

Hermione Granger Actually, I'm highly logical which allows me to look past extraneous detail and perceive clearly that which others overlook.

Ron Weasley Seems strange, mate. Dumbledore sends you off to find all these Horcruxes, but doesn't tell you how to destroy them. Doesn't that bother you?

Moody Potter, you're underage, which means you still have the Trace on you.

Harry What's the Trace?

Moody If you sneeze, the Ministry will know who wipes your nose. Point is, we'll have to use those means of transport the Trace can't detect: Brooms, Thestrals, and the like; we'll go in pairs. That way if anyone's out there waiting for us, and I reckon there will be... they won't know which Harry Potter is the real one.

Harry The real one?

Moody I reckon that you're familiar with this particular brew.

Harry No, absolutely not.

Hermione Told you he'd take it well.

Harry No, if you think I'm gonna let everyone risk their lives for me...

Ron Never done that before, have we?

Harry No. No. This is different. I mean, taking that, becoming me. No.

Lord Voldemort To those of you who do not know. We are joined tonight by Ms. Charity Burbage, who until recently, taught at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Her specialty was Muggle Studies. It is Ms. Burbage's belief that Muggles are not so different from us. She would, given her way, have us mate with them. To her, the mixture of magical and Muggle blood is not an abomination, but something to be encouraged.

Harry Potter I want to go to Godric's Hollow. It's where I was born. It's where my parents died.

Ron Weasley Please. Come back.

Dobby the House Elf Such a beautiful place, to be with friends. Dobby is happy to be with his friend, Harry Potter.

Hermione Granger We didn't celebrate your birthday, Harry! Ginny and I, we prepared a cake. We were going to bring it out at the end of the wedding.

Harry Potter I have to start finding these Horcruxes. They're our only chance to beat him, and the longer we stay here, the stronger he gets.

Lord Voldemort Wormtail! Have I not spoken to you about keeping our guest quiet?!

Ron Weasley No, you don't know how it feels! Your parents are dead! You have no family!

Harry You've been spying on us, have you?!

Harry Potter This is where they died, Hermione. This is where he murdered them.

Hagrid Lupin!

Ginny What are you doing?!

Lupin What creature sat in the corner the first time Harry Potter visited my office in Hogwarts?

Harry ARE YOU MAD?!

Lupin WHAT CREATURE?!

Harry A-A Grindylow!

Lupin We've been betrayed. Voldemort knew you were being moved tonight. I had to make sure you're not an impostor. Wait!

Shacklebolt The last words that Albus Dumbledore spoke to the pair of us?

Lupin Harry is the best hope we have. Trust him.

Shacklebolt What gave you away?

Harry Hedwig, I think. She was tryna protect me.
