I know [Umbridge] by reputation and I'm sure she's no Death Eater-"

"Yes, but the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
With another shock of excitement, Harry saw Sirius give James the thumbs-up.
Sirius was lounging in his chair at his ease, tilting it back on two legs. He was very good-looking, his dark hair fell into his eyes with a sort of casual elegance neither James's nor Harry's could ever have achieved, and a girl sitting behind him was eyeing him hopefully, though he didn't seem to have noticed. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Once this is all over, we'll be a proper family, you'll see. ~ J.K. Rowling

You've been popping into the fire every hour?' Harry said, half laughing.
'Just for a few seconds to check if the coast was clear. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Lily and James only made you Secret-Keeper because I suggested it," Black hissed, so venomously that Pettigrew took a step backward. "I thought it was the perfect plan ... a bluff ... Voldemort would be sure to come after me, would never dream they'd use a weak, talentless thing like you ... It must have been the finest moment of your miserable life, telling Voldemort you could hand him the Potters. ~ J.K. Rowling

or else discussing the case of Sirius Black ~ J.K. Rowling

You´re less like your father than I thought," he(Sirius Black) said finally, a definite coolness in his voice. "The risk would´ve been what made it fun for James. ~ J.K. Rowling

Minerva, kindly go to Hagrid's house, where you will find a large black dog sitting in the pumpkin patch. Take the dog to my office, tell him I will be with him shortly, then come back here. ~ J.K. Rowling

I, Sirius Black, Harry Potter's godfather, hereby give him permission to visit Hogsmead at weekends. ~ J.K. Rowling

Well, [bad] times like that bring out the best in some people and the worst in others. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Get off me," Harry spat, throwing Pettigrew's hands off him in disgust. "I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing it because - I don't reckon my dad would've wanted them to become killers - just for you. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
As he followed Bill back to the others a wry though came to him, born no doubt of the wine he had drunk. He seemed set on course to become just as reckless a godfather to Teddy Lupin as Sirius Black had been to him. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
We solemnly swear that we are up to no good. On this fortnight of October 31st, 1975, the four Marauders agree to follow each other until death do us part. We also agree to always keep secret the Great Power that we possess. Oh, yes- and one more thing. To make Snivellus's life during and after Hogwarts a living hell.
Signed (in no significant order),
Padfoot
Moony
Prongs
Wormtail ~ Mordred
Sirius Black quotes by Mordred
Think of how you feel when you are sick, or how you felt when you were learning to ride your bike. The physical state of your body has a direct effect on how you think about the world, on the state of your mind. I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say that your body has a direct effect on who you are. (30)
In an essay by Eric Saidel, Sirius Black: Man or Dog ~ Gregory Bassham
Sirius Black quotes by Gregory Bassham
If his surroundings could have reflected the feelings inside him, the pictures would have been screaming in pain. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
I think the only reason I never lost my mind is that I knew I was innocent. That wasn't a happy thought, so the dementors couldn't suck it out of me...but it kept me sane and knowing who I am...helped me keep my powers... ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
And don't forget: Elvendork! It's unisex! - James Potter ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
What he really wanted (and it felt almost shameful to admit it to himself) was someone like - someone like a parent: an adult wizard whose advice he could ask without feeling stupid, someone who cared about him, who had had experience of Dark Magic...
And then the solution came to him. It was so simple, and so obvious, that he couldn't believe it had taken so long - Sirius. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business.
Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony, and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git.
Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a professor.
Mr. Wormtail bids Professor Snape good day, and advises him to wash his hair, the slimeball. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
The ones who love us never really leave us, you can always find them in here. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Why would I go looking for someone I know wants to kill me? ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
For one brief, the great black dog reared onto its hind legs and placed its front paws on Harry's shoulders, but Mrs. Weasley shoved Harry away toward the train door hissing, For heaven's sake act more like a dog, Sirius! ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
We're making a new pact... That no matter what, no matter what sort of risks we take on ourselves, we will give our life to any one in this room, no questions asked. We will sacrifice for each other, as long as the outcome is right. If Voldemort has a wand to my head, and says that he's going to kill me if James doesn't turn, then so be it. He can kill me. Are we all agreed on this?"
- Sirius Black ~ Mordred
Sirius Black quotes by Mordred
Nasty temper he's got, that Sirius Black. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
If you want to know what a mans like,see how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.'-Sirius black. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
You are - truly your father's son, Harry. . . . ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Professor Lupin?" he said. "If you knew my dad, you must've known Sirius Black as well." Lupin turned very quickly. "What gives you that idea?" he said sharply. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
My mother didn't have a heart, Kreacher," Sirius snapped. "She kept herself alive out of pure spite" -Sirius Black to Kreacher, the Order of the Phoenix ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
It seemed impossible that there could be people in the world who still desired food, who laughed, who neither knew nor cared that Sirius Black was gone forever. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
I want to commit the murder I was imprisoned for. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
Did you like question ten, Moony?" asked Sirius as they emerged into the entrance hall.
"Loved it," said Lupin briskly. "Give five signs that identify the werewolf. Excellent question."
"D'you think you managed to get all the signs?" said James in tones of mock concern.
"Think I did," said Lupin seriously, as they joined the crowd thronging around the front doors eager to get out into the sunlit grounds. "One: He's sitting on my chair. Two: He's wearing my clothes. Three: His name's Remus Lupin ... ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
He might have crawled up into the airing cupboard and died, but I mustn't get my hopes up. ~ J.K. Rowling
Sirius Black quotes by J.K. Rowling
The problem with working, I mean not self-employed, is that you have to get up and routinely do something that you do not want to do, plus you get talked down to, ordered around by twats, you know you are better than. In reality, you are no better than a slave, no better than a hamster running on a wheel. You could say the hamster likes to run on the wheel, the hamster runs on the wheel by choice. But do not forget, the hamster is always in a cage, and will never be anything else, but a hamster running on a wheel inside a cage, unless it escapes the cage. ~ Robert Black
Sirius Black quotes by Robert Black
Iron was black and sheenless, but cleansing and polishing washed away its blackness. ~ Rumi
Sirius Black quotes by Rumi
So much of my sense of who I am is tied to mothering. When they left home, I fell into a huge, empty, black hole. Your children are grown and your career has slowed down - all the stuff that took up so much attention is gone, and you're left with expansive time and space. ~ Jessica Lange
Sirius Black quotes by Jessica Lange
My mother was a librarian, and she worked at the Black Resource Center in South Central Los Angeles and would call me to tell me stories that she read about that were interesting to her. ~ Karyn Parsons
Sirius Black quotes by Karyn Parsons
You want to believe in black and white, good and evil, heroes that are truly heroic, villains that are just plain bad, but I've learned in the past year that things are rarely so simple. The good guys can do some truly awful things, and the bad guys can sometimes surprise the heck out of you. ~ Karen Marie Moning
Sirius Black quotes by Karen Marie Moning
Long has black powder been in the hands of dwarves alone.
Alas, winds ever change and nothing remains the same forever.

Lord Arrlo Salkeld ~ J.P. Ashman
Sirius Black quotes by J.P. Ashman
I don't want to live beyond the age of 75. That would be a good point to bow out. I don't want to go on for ever. ~ Cilla Black
Sirius Black quotes by Cilla Black
God has a way of making sure you reach your destiny, regardless of what others do to you. ~ Daniel Black
Sirius Black quotes by Daniel Black
I'm sure that you could go back and make a graph showing that all the killings of black males increased in times of economic difficulty. As a matter of fact, a black man was lynched last year. ~ Ishmael Reed
Sirius Black quotes by Ishmael Reed
The tea baggers. The one thing they hate is when you call them racist. The other thing they hate is black people. But they won't say it. ~ Bill Maher
Sirius Black quotes by Bill Maher
They have invented a phrase, a phrase that is a black and white contradiction in two words - 'free-love' - as if a lover ever had been, or ever could be, free. ~ Gilbert K. Chesterton
Sirius Black quotes by Gilbert K. Chesterton
I know what's wrong with me - I could never stand still for death! Which you've got to do by a certain age, or be ridiculous - you've got to stand there nobly and serene, and let death run his tape on your arms and around your belly and up your crotch until he's got you fitted for that black suit. And I can't, I won't! ... So I'm left with wrestling with this anachronistic energy which God has charged me with and I will use it till the dirt is shoveled in my mouth! Life! Life! Fuck death and dying! ~ Arthur Miller
Sirius Black quotes by Arthur Miller
know," Maris sighed. "I'm disgusting." "No. You're very beautiful like this." Stunned, Maris looked up, unsure of what to expect. But he saw truth in Ture's eyes, not horror. Ture cupped Maris's cheek as he stared in awe of the man's current appearance. He'd never seen anything like this. Mari's skin reminded him of a sleek, silvery fish's. Only it wasn't scaled and it was as soft was warm velvet. Even his eyes were now an eerie glowing silver color. Not their normal dark chocolate. The neatest part was the beautiful design that was now visible around his eyes. Like someone had used dark gray and black eye shadow and liner to draw an intricate flowing scroll pattern. He ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Sirius Black quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
I like songs that make me feel tough. Like 'Back in Black.' You want to hear it again and get in a fight. ~ Chris Stapleton
Sirius Black quotes by Chris Stapleton
In that August of 1957, however, the cloakroom was often crowded, with senators talking earnestly on sofas and standing in animated little groups, and sometimes the glances between various groups were not comradely at all - sometimes, in fact, they glinted with a barely concealed hostility, and the narrow room simmered with tension, for the main issue before the Senate that summer was civil rights, a proposed law intended to make voting easier for millions of black Americans ~ Robert A. Caro
Sirius Black quotes by Robert A. Caro
I always thought that would be really neat if black people ever got control of the United States we would, of course, tear down some of the statues because we just don't like them...like all of Richmond would probably not have a statue standing. ~ Nikki Giovanni
Sirius Black quotes by Nikki Giovanni
Open your eyes now. I will. One moment. Has all vanished since? If I open and am for ever in the black adiaphane. Basta! I will see if I can see.
See now. There all the time without you: and ever shall be, world without end. ~ James Joyce
Sirius Black quotes by James Joyce
The Red Keep was full of cats: lazy old cats dozing in the sun, cold-eyed mousers twitching their tails, quick little kittens with claws like needles, ladies' cats all combed and trusting, ragged shadows prowling the midden heaps. One by one Arya had chased them down and snatched them up and brought them proudly to Syrio Forel … all but this one, this one-eared black devil of a tomcat. "That's the real king of this castle right there," one of the gold cloaks had told her. "Older than sin and twice as mean. One time, the king was feasting the queen's father, and that black bastard hopped up on the table and snatched a roast quail right out of Lord Tywin's fingers. Robert laughed so hard he like to burst. You stay away from that one, child."

He had run her halfway across the castle; twice around the Tower of the Hand, across the inner bailey, through the stables, down the serpentine steps, past the small kitchen and the pig yard and the barracks of the gold cloaks, along the base of the river wall and up more steps and back and forth over Traitor's Walk, and then down again and through a gate and around a well and in and out of strange buildings until Arya didn't know where she was.

Now at last she had him. High walls pressed close on either side, and ahead was a blank windowless mass of stone. Quiet as a shadow, she repeated, sliding forward, light as a feather.

When she was three steps away from him, the tomcat bolted. Left, then right, he wen ~ George R.R. Martin
Sirius Black quotes by George R.R. Martin
She trained the girls in her Girl Scout troop to believe that they could be anything, and she went to lengths to prevent negative stereotypes of their race from shaping their internal views of themselves and other Negroes. It was difficult enough to rise above the silent reminders of Colored signs on the bathroom doors and cafeteria tables. But to be confronted with the prejudice so blatantly, there in that temple to intellectual excellence and rational thought, by something so mundane, so ridiculous, so universal as having to go to the bathroom...In the moment when the white women laughed at her, Mary had been demoted from professional mathematician to a second-class human being, reminded that she was a black girl whose piss wasn't good enough for the white pot. ~ Margot Lee Shetterly
Sirius Black quotes by Margot Lee Shetterly
No.I couldn't have.Not with an Ewok-cuddling,Force-feel-ing,Padawan-braid-wearing, lightsaber-rammed-up-his -ass Jedi. ~ Holly Black
Sirius Black quotes by Holly Black
They are all negros. And the Fascists won't be called black because of their racial pride, so they are called White after the White Russians. And the Bolsheviks want to be called Black because of their racial pride. So when you say black you mean red, and when you mean red you say white and when the party who call themselves blacks say traitors they mean what we call blacks, but what we mean when we say traitors I really couldn't tell you. But from your point of view it will be quite simple. Lord Copper only wants patriot victories and both sides call themselves patriots, and of course both sides will claim all the victories. But, of course, it's really a war between Russia and Germany and Italy and Japan who are all against one another on the patriotic side. I hope I make myself plain? ~ Evelyn Waugh
Sirius Black quotes by Evelyn Waugh
In Erling Nicolai Rolfsrud's compendium of memorable women and men from North Dakota, "Mustache" Maude Black, for that was the name of my grandparents' benefactress, is described as not un-womanly, though she dressed mannishly, smoked, drank, was a crack shot and a hard-assed camp boss. These ~ Louise Erdrich
Sirius Black quotes by Louise Erdrich
You can be free. You can be black. Look at me! I'm the Heavyweight Champion! Can't nobody stop me. ~ Muhammad Ali
Sirius Black quotes by Muhammad Ali
Well, trust me," I said. "I'm more intense than I look. I'm intense like a lion is orange."
"So, like ... medium intense? Since a lion is kind of a tannish color?"
"No, they're orange." I frowned. "Aren't they? I've never actually seen one."
"I think tigers are the orange ones," Mizzy said. "But they're still only half orange, since they have black stripes. Maybe you should be intense like an orange is orange."
"Too obvious," I said. "I'm intense like a lion is tannish." Did that work? Didn't exactly slip off the tongue. ~ Brandon Sanderson
Sirius Black quotes by Brandon Sanderson
Take for example job applications. In the 21st century the decision wherever to hire somebody for a job while increasingly be made by algorithms. We cannot rely on the machines to set the relevant ethical standards, humans will still need to do that, but once we decide on an ethical standard in the job market, that it is wrong to discriminate against blacks or against women for example, we can rely on machines to implement and maintain these standards better than humans. A human manager may know and even agree that is unethical to discriminate against blacks and women but then when a black woman applies for a job the manager subconsciously discriminate against her and decides not to hire her. If we allow a computer to evaluate job applications and program computers to completely ignore race and gender we can be certain that the computer will indeed ignore these factors because computers do not have a subconscious. Of course it won't be easy to write code for evaluating job applications and there is always the danger that the engineers will somehow program their own subconscious biases into the software, yet once we discover such mistakes it would probably be far easier to debug the software than to get rid humans of their racist and misogynist biases. ~ Yuval Noah Harari
Sirius Black quotes by Yuval Noah Harari
As if ripping from the depths of the earth the knotted roots of a rare tree, that's how I write to you, and those roots as if they were powerful tentacles like voluminous naked bodies of strong women entwined by serpents and by carnal desires for fulfillment, and all this is the prayer of a black mass, and a creeping plea for amen: because the bad is unprotected and needs the approval of God: that is creation. ~ Clarice Lispector
Sirius Black quotes by Clarice Lispector
Guerrilla wars, and even more so terrorist assaults, are conducted only by forces with insufficient strength to carry out a real war. ~ Conrad Black
Sirius Black quotes by Conrad Black
She was born under a black sun. ~ Anonymous
Sirius Black quotes by Anonymous
I saw darkness in her beauty, and she saw beauty in my darkness. Yin and yang. Black and white. Beauty and scars; fury and forgiveness. She should've been my nemesis, but in her, I found something I didn't know I was looking for. ~ Keri Lake
Sirius Black quotes by Keri Lake
Perhaps we will end up one of those sad childless couples who spend all their time sleeping late, buying luxury goods, traveling the world, and enjoying each other's company. That would be terrible. ~ Michael Ian Black
Sirius Black quotes by Michael Ian Black
We are each of us like our little blue planet, hung in black space, upheld by nothing but our mutual reassurances, our loving lies. ~ John Updike
Sirius Black quotes by John Updike
Black as
the centre of an eye, the centre, a blackness
that sucks at light. I love your vigilance
Night, first mother of songs, give me the voice to sing of you
in those fingers lies the bridle of the four winds.
Crying out, offering words of homage to you, I am
only a shell where the ocean is still sounding.
But I have looked too long into human eyes.
Reduce me now to ashes
Night, like a black sun. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Sirius Black quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
