I'm new here and have been lurking for a little bit so hi.  My 
favorite lines are actually a little scene but its the part in PoA 
starting with "Tripe Sybil" where they are eating Christmas dinner 
and Dumbledore announces that Lupin is ill.

"But certainly you already knew that, Sibyll?" said Professor 
McGonagall, her eyebroys raised... .
"Certainly I knew, Minerva,"she said quietly. "But one does not 
parade the fact that one is All-Knowing. I frequently act as though I 
am not possessed of the Inner Eye, so as not to make others nervous."
"That explains a great deal," said Professor McGonagall tartly.

I laugh and laugh at these lines.  Kary
