Emma Watson, the actress who played the character of Hermione Granger par excellence, is one of the many women who idolizes this reel-life witch. She isn't anything like what you would call a "normal, warm, friendly, and approachable" girl. In fact, Harry and Ron themselves disliked her because she boasted her cleverness far too much! It was only after the two saved her from the troll in the first part of the series―Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone―that their friendship grew and formed a bond that was stronger and important than anything else in their lives. The author of the Harry Potter series, J.K. Rowling, herself admitted that Hermione is a lot like her in her younger years, a version of her that she isn't very proud of. "Why is that?", you might ask; well, as confident, clever, witty, and knowledgeable she might seem, the truth is that this character also has her share of insecurities and fears, the most important being the fear of failure. This is revealed in the Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban series, when a Boggart takes the form of Professor McGonagall during her 'Defence against the Dark Arts exam' and tells her that she has failed in all her exams. There are a lot of things that Hermione Granger is adored for. In fact, Ron himself admits in the final book of the series that he and Harry wouldn't last a day without her help. Irrespective of being a muggle-born witch, she is brighter, sharper, and smarter than most of her peers. Her thirst for knowledge is recognized by Professor McGonagall, which is why she secretly gives Hermione a Time-Turner, a magical device through which she can go back in time and attend multiple classes. We can go on and on about our favorite Miss Granger, but the title says that we are to list some of her most famous quotes. The next section presents you with the same. Most of the things Hermione said were "encyclopedic". We mean she literally was a walking encyclopedia, knowing everything about everything! Her witty words and thoughtful advice of the wise have always helped the three of them get out of some serious mess. Her impeccability with spells have always been a life-saving grace to Ron and Harry, and oftentimes, it was only because of her brilliant mind that some revolutionizing ideas came to the forefront. Remember, it was she who thought of making the Polyjuice Potion in the second series. Also, it was because of her suggestion that "Dumbledore's Army" was formed where Harry taught them how to practice magic in their defense. Let's refresh all these memories through the following collection of quotes. Mudblood she was, and while it was the meanest thing one could say to anyone in the wizard world, Hermione didn't care. She, in fact, was proud of the fact that she comes from a non-magic family. Her confidence in herself, along with the acceptance of what she is and where she comes from is what adds to her charm. She is inspirational, witty, funny too, with a tinge of her sarcastic humor. It is these characteristics of hers that make her an idol, an epitome of both a genuine human being and a brilliant witch; moreover a strong, clever, and responsible female who leaves no stone unturned to help her friends and fight for a noble cause. Hermione Granger, we love you!
