Hi!  Rather than risk being redundant or sending you tons and tons of 
quotes (because there are SO many great ones!)  I would like to 
suggest that (IN GENERAL) just about every joke that Ron makes is 
hilarious IMHO, and Dumbledore's quotes seem to be incomparable.  But 
to give you a start, one of my favorite quotes in the book is not 
something that is said by a character - it is the Hogwarts motto 
(that is in Latin, but I don't have it in front of me). In English, 
it translates "Never Tickle a Sleeping Dragon"  Seems pretty sensible 
to me!  Just my two knuts...
