One Can Only Quote Challenge
The topic of this challenge is to share some awesome quotes about love or friendship. Since we share enough quotes about love in our meme (That’s What He Said Thursday), I’ll pick some friendship quotes to share.
First, we will start with Harry Potter, because it is such an epic example of friendship.
“He must have known I’d want to leave you.”
“No, he must have known you would always want to come back.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
“We’ll be there, Harry,” said Ron
“What?”
“At your Aunt and Uncle’s house,” said Ron, “And then we’ll go with you wherever you’re going.”
“No-” said Harry quickly; he hadn’t counted on this, he had meant them to understand that he was undertaking the most dangerous journey alone.
“You said it once before,” said Hermione quickly, “that there was time to turn back if we wanted to. We’ve had time, haven’t we? We’re with you whatever happens.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
And some general quotes about friendship:
“If you have two friends in your lifetime, you’re lucky. If you have one good friend, you’re more than lucky.”
― S.E. Hinton
“Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. “Pooh?” he whispered.
“Yes, Piglet?”
“Nothing,” said Piglet, taking Pooh’s hand. “I just wanted to be sure of you.”
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh
“A friend may be waiting behind a stranger’s face.”
― Maya Angelou, Letter to My Daughter
“Courage. Kindness. Friendship. Character. These are the qualities that define us as human beings, and propel us, on occasion, to greatness.”
― R.J. Palacio, Wonder

All these quotes are giving me feels! Love that you chose two Harry Potter ones, as it’s one of my all-time favorite series 🙂 And that quote from Wonder is lovely too!

Gotta have Harry Potter quotes, always 🙂
Words are easy, like the wind; faithful friends are hard to find. (Shakespeare) I love your quotes, especially the Harry Potter ones. I’m just re-reading the books now, this time with my son. Exciting! Wishing you a happy week.

Ooh I can’t wait to read the HP books with my son too 🙂
Harry Potter has some of the best friendship quotes – but that’s not strange with such an awesome friendship as Hermione, Ron and Harry.
