---------LOCATION: No. Four Privet Drive – Harry’s room - night
HARRY: I can’t let you out, Hedwig. I’m not allowed to use magic outside of school. Besides, if Uncle VernonUNCLE VERNON: Harry Potter!
HARRY: Now you’ve done it.
AUNT PETUNIA: He’s in there. Vernon...
UNCLE VERNON: I’m warning you, if you can’t control that bloody bird it’ll have to go.
HARRY: But she’s bored! If I could only let out for an hour or twoUNCLE VERNON: Huh, huh! So you could send secret messages to you freaky little friends. No, sir!
HARRY: But I haven’t had any messages from any of my friends... not one... all summer.

It’s him who’s done it. You saw what he wrote on the wall.
HARRY: It’s not true sir, I swear. I never touched Mrs. Norris.
FILCH: Rubbish!

SNAPE: If I might, Headmaster? Perhaps Potter and his friends were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, the circumstances are suspicious.
I, for one, don’t recall seeing Potter at dinner.
PROFESSOR LOCKHART: I’m afraid that’s my doing, Severus. You see, Harry was helping me answer my fan mail.
HERMIONE: That’s why Ron and I went looking for him, Professor. We’d just found him when he said...
SNAPE: Yes, Miss Granger?
HARRY: When I said I wasn’t hungry. We were heading back to the common room when we found Mrs. Norris.
DUMBLEDORE: Innocent until proven guilty, Severus.
FILCH: My cat has been Petrified. I wanna see some punishment!
DUMBLEDORE: We will be able to cure her, Argus. As I understand it, Madame
Sprout has a very healthy growth of Mandrakes. When matured, a potion will be made which will revive Mrs. Norris. And in the meantime, I strongly recommend caution... to all.
---------LOCATION: Hogwarts – moving staircase - night
HERMIONE: It’s a bit strange, isn’t it?
HARRY: Strange?
HERMIONE: You hear this voice, a voice only you can hear, and then

It’s just... strange.
HARRY: Do you think I should have told them? Dumbledore and the others, I mean? RON: Are you mad?
HERMIONE: No, Harry. Even in the wizarding world, hearing voices isn’t a good sign. Picture: She’s right, you know.
---------Scene 14: About the Chamber.
---------LOCATION: Hogwarts – Transfiguration classroom - daytime
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL: Could I have your attention, please? Right. Now, today, we will be transforming animals into water goblets. Like so. One, two, three,
Vera verto. Now it’s your turn. Well, who would like to go first? Ah! Mr.
Weasley. “One, two, three. Vera verto.”
RON: Ahem. Vera verto!
OTHERS: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha...
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL: That wand needs replacing, Mr. Weasley. Yes, Miss
Granger?
HERMIONE: Professor, I was wondering if you could tell us about...the Chamber of Secrets?
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL: Well, very well. Well, you all know, of course,

    Many humans debate about whether the journey or the destination is more important to an individual’s growth. Throughout the course of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, Montag learns how to break away from the norms of his society and express his own beliefs after he meets various sources of inspirations. Similarly, during The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, a boy named Santiago discovers his ability to fulfill actions for himself with the help of many mentors who he meets on his journey. Journeys allow individuals to encounter new people and ideas which ultimately lead them to trust their own intuition instead of seeking guidance from others.…

    I walked forwards into the dining area and found Maia, Diana and Silas seated as though they had just finished a pretty serious conversation. I walked forward and sat down, bringing some pieces of meat that had been left over from the previous night and Diana looked towards me.

    The most important component in writing a novel is the creation of characters who are harmonious and who are believable on at least some level. But, regardless of how much influence fantasy has in a text, all characters must inevitably have at least some grounding in reality. I suspect that would be more difficult to include the same amount of reality in writing a fantasy novel, since the author of such a work must first decide how much the fantasy aspect of his or her novel should affect its characters. As near as I can tell, the method of characterization in the fantasy genre can take two directions. On the one hand, the main characters of a novel can express some characteristics which have been de-familiarized from what one would normally expect in a more conventional novel (i.e. a novel not of the fantasy genre). A prime example of this sort of character is one of another race, particularly when the race in question is different in some way from humans, such as the suppressed emotions of Star Trek’s Vulcans, or the exceptionally long lives of Elves. Main characters of this sort exist less as a study in reality, and are more commonly found within the epic fantasy genre. In the other method of characterization, main characters remain strictly mundane in their appearance and attitude and thus gear more towards a commentary on everyday society. Intertwined within the last of these two possibilities that Harry Potter, his friends, teachers, and foes exist in.…
