Quote:"Cornelius, we have a problem." Dolores Umbridge's sickly-sweet voice preceded her pink-clad bulk into the office of the Minister of Magic. She really did bear an unfortunate resemblance to a toad, Fudge thought, not for the first time, but she was so terribly efficient, and so unswervingly loyal.It's a situation that causes difficulties for the people affected, but that's not important right now.
"What is it, Dolores?" he asked as she maneuvered her broad, squat form around a pair of chairs and into position in front of his desk.
(Yes, I know neither of them have anything remotely resembling a sense of humour. But the rest of us do...)

"Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose
them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
