PS/SS quotes

Someone has asked for a couple of quotes, which as it turns
out occur very close to each other in PS/SS:

*** Hermione's remark about bravery over books and cleverness:

"Harry -- you're a great wizard, you know."

"I'm not as good as you," said Harry, very embarrassed, as she let go of
him.

"Me!" said Hermione. "Books! And cleverness! There are more important
things -- friendship and bravery and -- oh Harry -- be careful!"

*** And the other Snape = Bat simile we've had (so far):

"But I thought -- Snape --"

"Severus?" Quirrell laughed, and it wasn't his usual quivering treble,
either, but cold and sharp. "Yes, Severus does seem the type, doesn't
he? So useful to have him swooping around like an overgrown bat. Next to
him, who would suspect p-p-poor, st-stuttering P-Professor Quirrell?"


(Hmmm... Maybe he *is* a vampire... Could explain why Quirrell
  fears him, which I think he does -- I don't think Q was faking
  that part, at least not entirely...)
