Hey all,

I just thought of one that I'd always loved, and it stars Hermione 
in PoA (pg 85).  The trio have just gotten out of McGonagall's 
Transfiguration class after Trelawny's "Harry will die" episode and 
are eating lunch in the great hall:

'Hermione, if Harry's seen a Grim, that's-that's bad,' he said.  'My-
my Uncle Bilius saw one and- and he died twenty-four hours later!'

'Coincidence,' said Hermione airily, pouring herself some pumpkin 
juice.

'You don't know what you're talking about!' said Ron, starting to 
get angry.  'Grims scare the living daylights out of most wizards!'

'There you are then,' said Hermione in a superior tone.  'They see 
the Grim and die of fright.  The Grim's not an omen, it's the cause 
of death!  And Harry's still with us because he's not stupid enough 
to see one and think, right, well, I'd better pop my clogs then!'

hehe!!  I like that bit of smart sarcasm..so in character for 
Hermione.  Man, I wish I could come up with some of her lines in 
real life.
