there will be no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations in this class. as such, i don't expect many of you to appreciate the subtle science and exact art that is potion making. however, for those select few who possess the predisposition. i can teach you how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses. i show you how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even put a stopper in death. then again maybe some of you have come to hogwarts in possession of abilities so formidable that you feel confident enough to not pay attention. mr. potter, our new celebrity. tell me what would i get if i added root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood? you don't know? well let's try again. where mr. potter would you look if i asked you to find me a bezoar?
and what is the difference between monkswood and wolfsbane?
pity. clearly fame isn't everything. is it mr. potter?
good luck today, potter. then again, now that you've proven yourself against a troll, a little game of quidditch should be easy work for you. even if it is against slytherin.
you don't want me as your enemy quirrell.
you know perfectly well what i mean. we'll have another little chat soon. when you've had time to decide where your loyalties lie.
good afternoon. now, what would three young gryffindors, such as yourselves be doing inside on a day like this?
youd ought to be careful. people willht think youre up to something.
