Potter Quotes

I understand why society, especially American society, is gravitating toward fairy tales, given our economy. We've been exploring the world of witches and wizards for years. We've been exploring the world of vampires for years. Clearly the public - I mean, I feel like all of this was ushered in by 'Harry Potter' - in my own fannish beliefs.
Ginnifer Goodwin

Society, Mean, Understand

Lev Grossman

'Harry Potter' created a generation of readers in an era when kids could have disappeared into the depths of the Internet. That's no small feat. Every book series owes J.K. Rowling a debt of gratitude.
Gary Ross

Gratitude, Book, Small

Hats off to starting a franchise younger than we all did in 'Twilight' and keeping your cool. The 'Harry Potter' men and women had, what, a 10-year run?
Kellan Lutz

I don't read. I don't like to read 'Harry Potter' or anything like that. It's not my style.
Nicole Polizzi

Read, Style, Harry

I hope to read a Harry Potter novel soon, to see what it's all about. I admit to being annoyed that many good light fantasy writers have had trouble getting published, in England and elsewhere, when it is obvious the readers were waiting for us all along.
Piers Anthony

Good, Hope, Waiting

Most modern science fiction went to school on 'Dune.' Even 'Harry Potter' with its 'boy protagonist who has not yet grown into his destiny' shares a common theme. When I read it for the first time, I felt like I had learned another language, mastered a new culture, adopted a new religion.
Gary Ross

Religion, Time, Science

I think movies do play a valuable role in turning people on to the act of reading. I think that phenomenon just creates readers. At first they're going to love 'Harry Potter,' or they may love 'The Hunger Games,' but after that, they're going to love the act of reading and wonder, 'What else can I read?'
Gary Ross

Love, Movies, May

I love 'Harry Potter' and JK Rowling - don't laugh at me!
ASAP Rocky

Love, Laugh, Harry

Anything that activates the joy center in the brain makes you happy, and therefore protects you. Oddly enough, that's what they do in 'Harry Potter': The nurse gives the kids chocolates when they've been near the Dementors!
Jane Siberry

Happy, Brain, Enough

I had a ball doing Harry Potter.
Fiona Shaw

Honestly, I get more recognized for 'Three Men and a Little Lady' than 'Harry Potter'.

Rupert Grint

When I told people I was going to be doing the movie and the voice of Dobby, they were kind of awestruck, the people who knew about Harry Potter. I felt rather guilty that I didn't really understand the scale of the job I was about to take on. Now, I am well aware of what I'm doing, and actually, it feels a very serious acting responsibility.
Toby Jones

Job, Understand, Serious

I did 'Deathly Hallows' so my kids could get on the 'Harry Potter' set. They met Daniel Radcliffe, who was a darling and couldn't have been nicer to them so I'm a hero right now.
Peter Mullan

I have an editor in my head, that's why I can't read Harry Potter, because Rowling is such a lousy writer.
Colleen McCullough

Why, Read, Head

There's no subtext in Harry Potter really; it's all magic, anything can happen. Why do I say this? Because it's a magic spell. It's quite nice in a way. There is a real freedom to it.
Michael Gambon

Freedom, Nice, Real

I've never been somebody who wanted to read a book and then see it enacted in front of me. When I read 'Harry Potter,' I don't want to then go and see 'Harry Potter' shot frame to frame. I don't understand the point of it. Honestly, I would much rather read the book. If somebody is going to put something in front of me, I want it to be different.
Stephen Moyer

Book, Different, Understand

'Harry Potter' shouldn't be children's first experience with suspense and plot turns.
Berkeley Breathed

Experience, Children, Suspense

But things such as 'Harry Potter', all I can do is shape my character, seek the director's approval on that, and basically take it from there. Professor Flitwick in 'Harry Potter', I kind of defined how I saw him from reading the book, and luckily that matched up with the director's vision.
Warwick Davis

Character, Book, Him

And religion causes most of the problems, war, and economics of course, and study your history or you're going to repeat it; and if you're burning a Harry Potter book you need some serious counseling, you don't get it, you're missing the whole point.
Michael Berryman

Religion, History, War

It's like going back to school. You know, autumn! Time for 'Harry Potter'.
Robbie Coltraine

Time, School, Autumn

My kids love it. I thought I was the coolest dad in the world when I got to be in a Bond film, but 'Harry Potter', too? Well, I think I qualify for a medal for exceptional parenting or something, don't you?
Robbie Coltraine

Love, Dad, Parenting

Kids are so fiercely opinionated, that if they love the Harry Potter books and they go see the movie, they'll be the first to say, 'That was wrong! They didn't get that right!' They're storytellers themselves. They're critics. They're going to have the critical opinion.
Spike Jonze

Love, Wrong, Opinion

I am a big defender of 'Harry Potter,' and I think any book that gets kids to read are books that we should cherish, we should be thankful for them.
Judy Blume

Thankful, Book, Big

Imelda Staunton

Good, Through, Another

I don't think Alfonso was a big expert on Potter either. He was feeling his way through it more than I was.
David Thewlis

Feeling, Through, Big

You know a lot of what worked on this was taken from Harry Potter 2, the little Doby character, we had a lot of our skin stuff worked out and that helped a lot. We have a lot of exchange happening.
Dennis Muren
