Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone Chapters 13

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone Chapters 13 - 17

Chapter 13: Nicolas Flamel “You’ve got to stand up to him [Draco], Neville!” said Ron. He’s used to walking all over people, but that’s no reason to lie down in front of him and make it easier” (234).

Chapter 13: Nicolas Flamel “Harry knew, when they wished him good luck outside the changing rooms next afternoon, that Ron and Hermione were wondering whether they’d ever see him alive again. This wasn’t what you’d call comforting. Harry hardly heard a word of Wood’s pep talk as he pulled on his Quidditch robes and picked up his Nimbus Two Thousand” (238).

Chapter 13: Nicolas Flamel “Harry left the changing room alone some time later, to take his Nimbus Two Thousand back to the broomshed. He couldn’t ever remember feeling happier. He’d really done something to be proud of now – no one could say he was just a famous name any more” (241).

Chapter 14: Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback “Whenever Harry passed Quirrell these days he gave him an encouraging sort of smile, and Ron had started telling people off for laughing at Quirrell’s stutter” (245).

Chapter 14: Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback “It had grown three times in length in just a week. Smoke kept furling out of its nostrils. Hagrid hadn’t been doing his gamekeeping duties because the […] was keeping him so busy. There were empty brandy bottles and chicken feathers all over the floor” (253).

Chapter 15: The Forbidden Forest “From being one of the most popular and admired people at the school, Harry was suddenly the most hated. Even Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs turned on him, because everyone had been longing to see Slytherin lose the House Cup” (263).

Chapter 15: The Forbidden Forest “Harry had taken one step towards it when a slithering sound made him freeze where he stood. A bush on the edge of the clearing quivered… Then, out of the shadows, a hooded figure came crawling across the ground like some stalking beast. Harry, Malfoy and Fang stood transfixed. The cloaked figure reached the unicorn, it lowered its head over the wound in the animal’s side, and began to drink its blood” (275).

Chapter 16: Through the Trapdoor “’Harry – you’re a great wizard, you know. ’ ‘I’m not as good as you, ’ said Harry, very embarrassed, as she let go of him. ’ ‘Me!’ said Hermione. ‘Books! And cleverness! There are more important things – friendship and bravery and – oh Harry – be careful!” (308).

Chapter 17: The Man with Two Faces “What I want more than anything else in the world at the moment, ’ he thought, ‘is to find the Stone before Quirrell does. So if I look in the Mirror, I should see myself finding it – which means I’ll see where it’s hidden! But how can I look without Quirrell realising what I’m up to? ” (313).

Chapter 17: The Man with Two Faces “’To one as young as you, I’m sure it seems incredible, but to Nicolas and Perenelle, it really is like going to bed after a very, very long day. After all, to the well-organised mind, death is but the next great adventure. You know, the Stone was really not such a wonderful thing. As much money and life as you could want! The two things most human beings would choose above all – the trouble is, humans do have a knack of choosing precisely those things which are worst for them” (320).
