The Harry Potter franchise is full of endlessly quotable moments, ranging from the brilliant humor of the likes of Neville Longbottom and Ron Weasley, all the way to the poignant wisdom of Albus Dumbledore and torturous evil of Bellatrix Lestrange. The third film is often considered to be the best in the franchise, while the third book is also known to be one of JK Rowling’s finest.
We’ve taken a deep dive into both the third film and the book and picked up the ten finest quotes from across a wide range of characters and subjects.
10 “Happiness Can Be Found…”
Albus Dumbledore is known for his ability to mix a light-hearted sense of fun with some moments of true dramatics. Some of the things JK Rowling had him say seem to be written exclusively to be used as quotes one day in the future.
His musing on happiness is an important one: “happiness can be found even in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the light”.
9 “Young In Years…”
While the first two Harry Potter films were basically charming kids films, The Prisoner Of Azkaban took the film in a darker direction, while littering it with moments of truly impressive comedy.
Professor Trelawney’s unexplained dislike of Hermione reads like posh person’s attempt at a rap battle: “You may be young in years, but the heart that beats beneath your bosom is as shriveled as an old maid’s! Your soul as dry as the pages of the books to which you so desperately cleave”.
8 “Cockroach…”
Hermione might have been unable to think of a comeback to Professor Trelawney (she stormed out of the room), but she was able to start the battle with Malfoy.
Upon seeing him on the Hogwarts grounds, she delivers the brutal insult: “You foul, loathsome, evil little cockroach”. It’s short but sweet, punchy but powerful. And pretty accurate.
7 “You’re Not A Bad Person…”
Sirius Black emerged as an important father figure to Harry during The Prisoner Of Azkaban. No longer viewed as a murderer, but a Godfather. As such, he delivers an emotionally powerful speech to Harry about good and evil.
“I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry. You’re not a bad person. You’re a very good person, who bad things have happened to. Besides, the world isn’t split into good people and Death Eaters. We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are”.
6 “Well, well Lupin…”
Snape might be depicted as a rather heartless, unkind man, but his proclivity for sass and sarcasm is unparalleled.
He is one of the very few people who were aware that Lupin was a werewolf, and his perfectly delivered hint is one of the comedic highlights of the film: “Well, well, Lupin. Out for a little walk in the moonlight?”.
5 “I Would Have Died…”
James Potter was a bully and Peter Pettigrew betrayed his friends. Remus Lupin and Sirius Black might have been followed by stigma throughout their lives, but they proved themselves to have the kindest hearts.
As Sirius says, “I would have died! I would have died rather than betray my friends.” This shows that he was a good person deep down. He was committed to his friends, unlike Pettigrew.
4 “The Man You Truly Are…”
As a trained actor known for many powerful dramatic roles, the casting of Gary Oldman in a huge franchise aimed primarily at children seemed like an interesting move.
His delivery of the lines, “you know the man you truly are, Remus! This heart is where you truly live! This heart! Here! This flesh is only flesh,” really let his Thespian side seep out.
3 “Yeah, Take It Away Ernie…”
While it’s The Half-Blood Prince that is really known for bringing humor to the forefront of the Harry Potter world, the cameo from British comic Lenny Henry in The Prisoner Of Azkaban could well be the franchise’s finest comedy moment.
His work as the dreadlocked shrunken head, Dre Head, cannot be understated: “Yeah, take it away Ernie, it’s going to be a bumpy ride… Little old lady at twelve o’clock!”.
2 “Fear Itself…”
The poignance of Lupin’s quote about fear has a lot of resonance with Harry: “I’m very impressed. That suggests that what you fear most of all, is fear itself.”
By seeing Dementors in Boggart-form, Harry proves that the thing he is most scared of is effectively the concept of being scared. Interesting.
1 “The Very First Time I Saw You…”
Harry’s connection to his mother (mostly through her eyes, even though the films failed to keep this consistent) is prominent in the Harry Potter franchise.
Lupin’s words are probably the best window into her as a person: “The very first time I saw you, Harry, I recognized you immediately. Not by your scar, by your eyes. They’re your mother Lily’s. Yes, I knew her. Your mother was there for me at a time when no one else was. Not only was she a singularly gifted witch, but she was also an uncommonly kind woman”.
