00:00Of course it's happening inside your head, Harry. Why should that mean that it's not real?"

00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're looking at lines from the

00:10Harry Potter franchise that are the most fun to parrot.

00:13Page 394.

00:1810. I'll be in my bedroom, making no noise and pretending that I don't exist

00:23There are days we mourn how much of Harry's savagery was cut from the movies.

00:27For instance, when he tells Snape, there's no need to call me, sir, in Half-Blood Prince.

00:32Luckily, movie Harry still got some shining moments to showcase his sharp tongue.

00:37Nothing will happen.

00:38Not to worry, Harry, I will fix that arm of yours straight away.

00:42Not you.

00:43When the Dursleys are having important company over at the beginning of Chamber of Secrets,

00:48Vernon checks in with Harry to make sure he knows what his role is. Boy, does Harry ever.

00:55And you?

00:55I'll be in my bedroom, making no noise and pretending that I don't exist.

01:01Too right you will.

01:03He gets some equally quotable and scathing dialogue towards the end of Order of the Phoenix,

01:08this time toward a distressed Umbridge.

01:13Do something! Tell them I mean no harm!

01:16I'm sorry, Professor. I must not tell lies.

01:20Beyond the themes of bravery and friendship,

01:22the overarching lesson of the story might have just been, don't cross the boy who lived.

01:29Don't worry, you're just as sane as I am.

01:32You're not going mad.

01:37I can see them, too.

01:41You're just as sane as I am.

01:42Very reassuring words from resident sane person Luna Lovegood.

01:46Of course, her sentiment is just that.

01:48There is no normal, only individual and shared experience.

01:52In both the book and movie, Luna offers the sentiment when Harry finds that he's the only

01:56person among his friends who can see the creatures pulling the carriages up to the school.

02:01Luna shares that she, too, can see them, and reassures Harry he isn't going mad.

02:06They're quite gentle, really, but people avoid them because they're a bit...

02:15Different.

02:16The line feels so emblematic of Luna that its staying power in the fandom

02:20doesn't come as a surprise.

02:23It's a charm, actually.

02:26Keeps away the nargles.

02:28Number 8.

02:29Obviously.

02:30Snape's low, drawling voice makes him so fun to mimic.

02:34That is the second time you have spoken out of turn, Miss Granger.

02:36Are you incapable of restraining yourself, or do you take pride in being an insufferable

02:41know-it-all?

02:42His character is, of course, quintessential in the books,

02:44but Alan Rickman breathes an esteemed life into him.

02:48One of our favorite scenes is in Prisoner of Azkaban when he briefly replaces Lupin as

02:54the Defense Against Dark Arts professor.

02:56He tells the class to

02:57"...turn to page 394."

03:00hoping someone will pick up on the significance of the information on the page.

03:05Again, Rickman's delivery is impeccable.

03:08Still, we tend to favor his exchange with Umbridge in Order of the Phoenix when she

03:12tries her best to get under his skin.

03:14It's like watching a gerbil trying to rouse a black cat.

03:18You applied first for the Defense Against the Dark Arts post, is that correct?

03:23Yes.

03:25But you were unsuccessful?

03:29Obvious.

03:32Number 7.

03:33The Boy Who Lived.

03:34Come to die.

03:36Harry Potter is dead!

03:43And now is the time to declare yourself.

03:45Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort is yet another performance with diction that's quite fun

03:50to imitate.

03:51When Harry finally confronts Voldemort, a fated encounter that everything has been building

03:56up to since the beginning, the Dark Lord still makes time for a bit of wordplay.

04:01Harry Potter.

04:06The Boy Who Lived.

04:13Come to die.

04:15Just as epic on the page as it is on screen, the line is typically one people think of

04:21most in connection with Voldemort.

04:23Well, you know except for...

04:27Beyond that, memes and parodies aplenty have surfaced, which is always a true mark of

04:32something's legacy.

04:33Number 6.

04:34Wait Till My Father Hears About This.

04:36This one's a lot of fun to say whenever something slightly inconvenient happens,

04:41Oh, my father will hear about this!

04:42with Draco uttering some variation of the line three times in the films and mentioning

04:47his father a handful of others.

04:49It's impossible not to associate his character with the vague threat.

04:53Wait until my father hears that Dumbledore's got this oaf teaching classes.

04:56famous last words for someone once turned into a ferret.

04:59Thanks to Tom Felton's ad-libbing in Chamber of Secrets, we also get the pleasure of quoting

05:05his response to Harry, disguised as Goyle, every now and again.

05:08Reading?

05:11I didn't know you could read.

05:12Draco Malfoy, school antagonist or comedian extraordinaire?

05:17Number 5.

05:18Master Has Given Dobby A Sock.

05:21Come, Dobby.

05:25Open it.

05:30If someone does the kindness of doing your laundry for you, consider repaying them with

05:35this line in thanks.

05:36There is something so sweet and innocent but simultaneously hilarious about it, both in

05:42and out of context.

05:43Perhaps it's the elf's shrill voice, or the wonderment with which he says it.

05:47But it's gold.

05:49Master has given Dobby a sock.

05:52What?

05:53I didn't…

05:55Master has presented Dobby with clothes.

05:59Dobby is free.

06:02And it's not the only memorable line Dobby gets, either.

06:04This one made us laugh out loud while reading.

06:07But it was even better to hear it said aloud in the film adaptation.

06:11You could have killed me!

06:12Dobby never meant to kill.

06:14Dobby only meant to maim or seriously injure.

06:19You are far more merciful than we, Dobby.

06:21Number 4.

06:22Not Me, Not Hermione, You.

06:25This whole scene is highly quotable, if the people replicating the entire thing with perfect

06:30annotation online haven't already proven as much.

06:33Once I make my move, then you're free to check the king.

06:39No.

06:40Ron, no!

06:42What is it?

06:43He's going to sacrifice himself.

06:45This one blew up more as a result of the kids and acting that very much reminds us of their age.

06:51No, you can't!

06:52There must be another way!

06:54In the books, Ron actually takes the place of the knight and ends up badly injured.

06:58But in the movie, the stakes are quite a bit lower, so the drama of it all feels out of place.

07:03In any case, Rupert Grint summons all of the conviction of the chess piece Ron

07:08is filling in for to deliver his big line and encourage Harry onward.

07:12Do you want to stop Snape from getting that stone or not?

07:17Harry, it's you that has to go on.

07:19I know it.

07:21Not me.

07:22Not Hermione.

07:23You.

07:23The internet was just waiting to dig this one out of the archives.

07:27Number three.

07:28Always.

07:30If you truly loved her...

07:36No one can know.

07:40Where most of the quotable lines on our list are dedicatedly memeable,

07:44this one holds a bit more weight.

07:46It's the final expression of Snape's devotion, his eternal love for Lily,

07:49and the definitive answer about what side he was really on the entire time.

07:54After all this time?

07:58Always.

08:01The reveal of his Patronus also comes during this scene,

08:04making it one of the most significant in the franchise.

08:07Don't tell me now that you've grown to care for the boy.

08:12So...

08:24Despite the somberness, this is a fun one to quote with your friends,

08:28especially when the context is something silly.

08:30For example, you still like Harry Potter?

08:32After all this time?

08:34Go ahead and answer us in the comments.

08:36Number two.

08:37It's Levi-O-Sar, not Levi-O-SAR.

08:40It's Levi-O-Sar, not Levi-O-SAR.

08:45She's a nightmare, honestly.

08:47Funnily enough, Hermione's clarification in the book actually puts emphasis

08:52on the Wingardium part of the spell, not Levi-O-Sar.

08:55It turned out to be a winning change for the movie series, though,

08:59because this line has been quoted to King's Cross and back.

09:02Stop, stop, stop.

09:04You're going to take someone's eye out.

09:07Besides, you're saying it wrong.

09:09It's Levi-O-Sar, not Levi-O-SAR.

09:13It's particularly thanks to this, and also partly thanks to Emma Watson's delivery.

09:17She's as perfectly snooty as her character's book counterpart.

09:21We get as much attitude only a few scenes earlier when the trio find Fluffy in the school,

09:27and Hermione makes her priorities very clear.

09:30Now, if you two don't mind, I'm going to bed before either of you come up

09:34with another clever idea to get us killed, or worse, expelled.

09:38Ron's line right after this, of course, just as quote-worthy.

09:43She needs to sort out her priorities.

09:46Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.

09:50Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon,

09:53the genuine laughs following this line always make us smile.

09:58One person couldn't feel all that. They'd explode.

10:01Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon.

10:0910 points to Gryffindor. Instead of the boring old,

10:19good job.

10:24Yeah, you can have a word, goodbye.

10:26Honestly, we wish we could use this one in more situations.

10:34Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?

10:36A change in delivery made this one unforgettable.

10:41Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?

10:44Molly Weasley's Howler. Molly may be yelling,

10:48but it's Ron's expression that does all the talking.

10:51Ronald Weasley!

10:56How dare you steal that car! I am absolutely disgusted!

11:18Number one, you're a wizard, Harry. Hagrid has some great scenes in the

11:22franchise, but his very first might just be his best.

11:29Sorry about that.

11:31It's the moment Harry's life changes forever. After all, and who better to announce the news

11:36than everyone's favorite gamekeeper? With his towering stature and underestimated pink umbrella,

11:42Hagrid certainly leaves his mark, on the Dursleys and on us.

11:46Dry up, Dursley, you great prune.

11:49He becomes Harry's savior and his first real friend. It feels only right that he should

11:54incite the protagonist's big journey. It's one line we never get tired of hearing,

11:59and never get tired of trying to mimic, either.

12:03You're a wizard, Harry.

12:06I'm a what?

12:08A wizard, and a thumpin' goodnight, wedger.

12:11Which line do you think you've quoted most often? Let us know in the comments.

12:16It does not do to dwell on dreams, Harry, and forget to live.
