hmschooln Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Hi all. So we are going to do the Hogwarts Correspondence course this October for a few weeks and for our morning copywork(Quill writing) I need some Harry Potter book quotes. I'm looking for ten, so if you have a favorite quote from the series, could you please post it and tell which book it is in and if possible where at abouts in that book it is.:001_smile: I really appreciate it as I am really looking forward to doing this with the kids.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa B Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that. Book 1, pg. 214 It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities. Book 2, pg. 333 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Savoir Faire Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 This is so not what you're looking for-- but my kids are ALWAYS saying it. "Harry, we saw Uranus up close!" -- Ron in Order of the Phoenix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmschooln Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 Thanks for the quotes so far. Keep them coming please. My kids would problably enjoy the uranus one:glare::D Thanks for the idea to search writing prompts, I'd been trying to think of something for writing assignments, don't know why I didn't think to do that, that's so much easier. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 “It takes much bravery to stand up to our enemies but we need as much bravery to stand up to our friends.” ― Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone “If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.” ― Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire “I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.” ― Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Lots of good ones here... ...and my fave HP phrase, which I will someday get as a tattoo: Constant vigilance! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nansk Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) When my dd was younger, I used to assign her short sentences based on HP (not necessarily quotes from the books). Harry Potter was a boy wizard. Hogwarts was founded a thousand years ago. Who was Wendelin the Weird? She used the Flame-Freezing Charm. Harry felt a queer sense of foreboding. Draco dormiens numquam titillandus. Never tickle a sleeping dragon. DD reminded me of one more: Let's just cross our fingers and hope for the best. (Seems like an apt motto for our homeschoo. :tongue_smilie:) Edited September 24, 2012 by nansk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
