Isn't she? And for SOOOO many reasons...

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lydia!

For real! Harry and Ron are lucky to have her as a friend and I think they realize that pretty quickly :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lissa!

Nope! She's very wise, even from the beginning :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Nicole!

Me too! I love all these character precisely because they have so much wisdom to impart :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lark!

Definitely. Her effusiveness about EVERYTHING always reminds me of how wonderful life really is if you just keep looking for the beautiful and good.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

That's my favorite of his quotes because it's so simple and true. We're all more alike than different. If we could just remember that, the world would be a much kinder place!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Pam!

Me too. She's such a memorable character!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Cindy!

Aren't they? He's a great, wisdom-filled character!

Thanks for popping in, Astilbe!

Same. Atticus is one of my favorite literary characters because he's so calm, compassionate, and wise.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Greg!

She's VERY quotable!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lori!

TKAM is my favorite novel of all time and I think this quote really sums up its theme. It's all about learning to put yourself in someone else's shoes and then acting accordingly—with compassion, kindness, and love. We definitely need more of that in this tough ole world!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Wendy!

Jo is such a relatable character! Not only is she a reader, but she's such a human human. I love that she recognizes her faults and always tries to overcome them.

Thanks for stopping in, Diana!

I'm not into re-reading, but TKAM is one I re-read every few years. No matter how many times I read it, it seems to just get better and better. There are lots of reasons it's my favorite novel of all time!

Thanks for popping by, Anita!

I was reading through a list of Anne quotes on Goodreads and, I swear, every single one made me smile! She's such a fun character. I adore her.

Thanks for stopping in, Louise!

It's easy to see why so many people love these characters, isn't it?

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Carol!

I would vote for these two for sure. With Atticus' cool head, Anne's enthusiasm for life, and their collective wisdom, they would do amazing things for this country. Bummer that they're only real in our heads...

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Deb!

He's a VERY wise wizard!

Thanks for stopping by, AJ!

My favorite characters are the only ones with quotes I can at least kinda sorta remember—at least enough to find them again on the Internet! Oh, my aging memory...

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Deanna!

Great minds think alike! These are some very lovable characters, so it's no wonder they're so beloved.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Alex!

You haven't?? You need to, Sam. They're really fun. I would have adored them when I was a kid, but I still very much enjoyed them as an adult.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

I'm not good at writing them down either. I do keep a journal of quotes that have to do with books and reading. Other kinds, though, I don't record. I do like Goodreads' Quotations feature, where you can save favorite book quotes. I need to use it more.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Kami!

Agreed. There are so many great ones!

Thanks for popping in, Emily!

Hermione is hilarious. She's lovable in the books, but I think Emma Watson's portrayal on screen made her seem even more authentic and alive. It's no wonder we all love her so much!

Thanks for coming by, FangirlFlax!

You can't go wrong with these well-loved characters!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Helen!

She has some wonderful lines. I love her!

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Alicia!

She certainly is! And they all make me smile :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Katherine!

I love Harry Potter! It's a fun series and I love that it's inspired so many kids to read, fangirl/boy, and just let their inner nerds shine. The books/movies are also super quotable.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Marianne!

I totally agree, she inspired so many children to pick up a book and become readers. But it's not for me. I'm really not into fantasy.

My pleasure! It was fun to look up some of my favorite quotes and share them :)

Thanks for popping in, Lauren!

Mine as well! It's a great read in so many ways and on so many levels :)

Thanks for stopping by, Emily!
