Harry Potter is clearly the best thing that happened to me during my adolescence. Like many other Potterheads, I would race to the end of a newly published book and then spend the time until the publication of the next one, re-reading all of them. Everything about the books (and the movies) are etched in my memory.
Everything about the series is close to my heart (and I’m sure yours too). It is extremely difficult to pick a few quotes to sum up the journey that Harry Potter is. But still I’ve tried. Take a look?
