Harry Potter has been a part of so many childhoods that it doesn’t even need any introduction. It’s a household name as it should be. It’s wonderful how it has shaped the lives of so many young readers. Most of the kids began their magical journey to the fantasy world with this seven-novel series, and they have never looked back.
Written by J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter follows the life of Harry Potter who doesn’t know he is a wizard. He is clueless about his magical skills and abilities until his letter arrives. The letter we’ve all at some point wished for.
Harry Potter has also been turned into movies and those, who have never read, have at least watched these movies. But if you have read the books, then we are sure you will understand these famous quotes from the series.
