I have finally completed year two of my Harry Potter journey. Here are some of my favorite quotes from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling:

1. “Dear Ron, and Harry if you’re there, ”
   “I hope everything went all right and that Harry is okay and that you didn’t do anything illegal to get him out, Ron, because that would get Harry into trouble, too. I’ve been really worried and if Harry is all right, will you please let me know at once, but perhaps it would be better if you used a different owl, because I think another delivery might finish your one off.” (p. 45)
2. “You’d better hope Creevey doesn’t meet Ginny, or they’ll be starting a Harry Potter fan club.” (p. 99)
3. “Celebrity is as celebrity does, remember that.” (p. 120)
4. “Dobby wants to save Harry Potter’s life! Better sent home, grievously injured, than remain here sir! Dobby only wanted Harry Potter hurt enough to be sent home!” (p. 177)
5. “Harry Potter survived, and the Dark Lord’s power was broken, and it was a new dawn, sir, and Harry Potter shone like a beacon of hope for those of us who thought the Dark days would never end.” (p. 178)
6. “So Dobby stopped us from getting on the train and broke your arm….You know what, Harry? If he doesn’t stop trying to save your life he’s going to kill you.” (P. 184)
7. “Hearing voices no one else can hear isn’t a good sign, even in the wizarding world.” (p. 209)
8. “Honestly, if you were any slower, you’d be going backward.” (p. 224)
9. “You will find that I will only truly have left the school when none here are loyal to me. You will also find that help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it.” (p. 263-264)
10. “Books can be misleading.” (p. 297)
11. “You want fame, you have to be prepared for a long hard slog.” (p. 298)
12. “Voldermort, is my past, present, and future, Harry Potter…” (p. 313)
13. “Ginny! Haven’t I taught you anything? What have I always told you? Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can’t see where it keeps its brain?” (p. 329)
14. “It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.” (p. 333)
