Quote: Dumbledore Being Wise, He Does That

"Voldemort himself created his own worst enemy, just as tyrants everywhere do! Have you any idea how much tyrants fear the people they oppress?" 

-Dumbledore (sixth book)

Dumbledore may be one of my favorite characters of all time. I know he is one of the wisest. He has an amazing ability to make incredibly complex things seem simple. The relationship between a tyrant and his subjects is very complicated, but Dumbledore has the power to tell us so much about it, in a way that is so easy to understand. I love this quote, it shows so much of Dumbledore's character and of the Harry Potter series. It shows Dumbledore's wisdom and amazing ability to teach tough lessons. But it also tells a lot about the books in general, in many ways it sums up the series as a whole. The overthrow of a tyrant, the oppression, and most importantly the sowing of a tyrants downfall in the place he leasts expects it, the people. For some reason this quote not only resonates with my in the real world, but also in the world of Harry Potter. Put simply Dumbledore is a wise, wise man.
