Get the Abroccolipse mug.Popular local name for the statue of Molly Malone selling shellfish out of a cart, mounted on the pavement between the main gates of Trinity College and Grafton Street, Dublin, Ireland.

I meet Caroline on the way in to work at the same time every day, and for the smallest fraction of a second longer than would occur strictly by chance our eyes lock together, and nothing else worth noting happens but we're cool about it. I guess you could say we're quantum dating.

Full name Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledore. Born around 1840-46, died 1997. Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in the novels by Jo Rowling. Named for the Latin for white, and an Anglo-Saxon term meaning "bumblebee", as Rowling imagined the old man humming about the school. Headed the Order of the Phoenix in both its incarnations. Campaigned for the truth about the evil Voldemort to be known, but was unimpressed by his power and pretensions; addressed Voldemort simply as "Tom" (Marvolo Riddle) whenever they met. Killed for reasons Harry Potter does not at first comprehend, but as for the question of whether we see him again, hey, this is Hogwarts, remember? Recently outed by author Rowling as gay (!!! go Jo !!!); his greatest mistake was to fall in love with Gellert Grindelwald. Wise old man who has come by his wisdom in that hallowed academy, the School of Hard Knocks. Warm, friendly, fierce when necessary, had style, truly unforgettable. Played in the movies by the late great Richard Harris (years 1&2), and subsequently by Michael Gambon. At once among the finest wizards and finest gay characters to grace the pages of fiction.

Albus Dumbledore. The only wizard Voldemort ever feared.
"Exactly", said Dumbledore, beaming once more. "Which makes you very different from Tom Riddle. It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, page 245, Bloomsbury ed.
"You mean he was weak!", screamed Voldemort. "Too weak to dare, too weak to take what might have been his, what will be mine!"
"No, he was cleverer than you", said Harry, "a better wizard, a better man."
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, p. 592

Get the Albus Dumbledore mug.President of the United States from 1961 to 1963, 35th to take the job. Started the GI ball rolling in Vietnam. Seen as a plaster saint by the left wing just the same, partly because he avoided actually terminating the biosphere over the Cuban Missile Crisis and partly because he had the good sense to get himself shot dead while in office. Shot by Lee Harvey Oswald, a gibbous fanatic on his way to an eldritch rendezvous.
