~*Saying of the Fortnight*~

Welcome to the first Saying of the Fortnight!!!!!🤗

This is one of the new activities which the Development Team has in store of all the HP members😃

What is this "Saying of the Fortnight", you ask.

Well, its just your analysis, thoughts, feelings, interpretations of a dialogue which is said by the Character of the Month, who, this month,is the Boy-Who-Lived aka Harry Potter.

So wasting no time further, let me tell you the Saying of the Fortnight..............

"I don't go looking for trouble. Trouble usually finds me."

This was said by Harry Potter in Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter Five, when he is about to board the Hogwarts Express and is stopped by Mr Weasley,who warns him about Sirius Black.
The lines prior to the above quote are:
  • "Harry, swear to me you won't go looking for Black." Mr. Weasley

  • "Why would I go looking for someone I know wants to kill me?" Harry


So now put on your thinking caps and start interpreting.......

  • Does trouble, indeed, look for Harry? Or is it the other way around?
  • Are there any situations where Harry could have avoided trouble, if he wasnt soooooo goody-goody?
  • Do you think that the above quote is fully appropriate or not for Harry?

These questions would help you to inculcate the idea of the quote much better. So guys, please start posting your opinions on the above quote😃

Hope you like our new activity😃 Please do post your suggestions or comments about the Saying of the Fortnight😃

With loads of love,
😃HP Development Team😃
Sam, Ammu, Misha and Manshi

I think it's an awesome way to make people get really thinking 👏 👏

I, for one, definitely think that Harry doesn't go looking for trouble....although he has this desire to always save people's lives & put others before him, he only does this when he ends up in trouble himself or the peeople closest to him are in danger of any kind...he never purposely creates any trouble....he's always instigated....so I totally support Harry when he says he doesn't go looking for trouble...it finds him....

great idea! and i completely agree with harry when he says trouble usually finds him... for example, harry didn't enter the triwizard tournament himself... someone else did that... which led to the cup being a portkey that took him to voldemort... so in this case, he didn't go looking for trouble... trouble found him...

* Does trouble, indeed, look for Harry? Or is it the other way around?

Both this and that. Trouble and Harry balance one another.
Sometimes Trouble finds Harry and other times, Harry gets so bored not doing any rule breaking that he finds trouble

* Are there any situations where Harry could have avoided trouble, if he wasnt soooooo goody-goody?

Plenty in that. But Harry is THE HERO, C'mon he HAS to play the hERO!

* Do you think that the above quote is fully appropriate or not for Harry?

Umm...well Bachcha Hai so we will forgive him for making a "half true" statment" (Mind, A HALF True Statement is also Half False!)

I don't think either go LOOKING for either..they're just a package..(Buy a Harry & get troubles Free!)😆

The way Harry was born, & the time he was born..& the reason he's so famous all just lead TO trouble..

its as simple as that!
