Harry Potter Quiz: Match Professor Dumbledore’s Quote To The Movie

Can you identify which movie these Professor Dumbledore quotes come from?

Albus Dumbledore
Warner Bros.

There are many great pieces of dialogue throughout the Harry Potter series. Fans of the movies love to quote their favourites, and there's one man who has more quotable lines than anybody else.

Clearly inspired by the wise-old-man archetype, Professor Dumbledore can always be relied upon to deliver words of wisdom. More so than any other character, Dumbledore gives Harry – and the audience – a wealth of knowledge about life, death, dreams, language, and magic, delivering his lines with plenty of rhythm and finesse.

But Dumbledore also has a knack for comedy. This combination of wisdom and wit is fundamental to Dumbledore's distinctive personality. Without a hint of embarrassment, he often delivers quirky, out-of-place lines that are impossible to predict, yet they always feel natural thanks to the considered deliveries of both Richard Harris and Michael Gambon. Indeed, Dumbledore is undoubtedly one of the funniest characters in the Harry Potter series.

For this quiz, you'll have to match each of these Dumbledore quotes to the correct Harry Potter movie. Though there are some obvious ones here, other quotes will be much more difficult to recognise. Getting 100% will not be easy.
