Quote of the day IV
"For example, Sirius did not invent the phrase, ‘Ruthless or toothless, she’s mine.’”
Remus guffawed as his mind roved back to their later years in school, and the time after, before Harry was born. It was a confident proclamation that was invariably whispered into the ear of whichever friend happened to be closest when Sirius entered a pub and spotted a woman he wanted to meet. “How do you know he always said that?”
“Because Mum told me their Grandfather Pollux always shouted it while standing drunk on top of the formal dining table at Christmastime, just to aggravate Grandmother Irma. Of course Sirius had to adopt it.”
