Sheldon: “More wrong”? Wrong is an absolute state and not subject to gradation.

“An excellent point,” said Professor Dumbledore. “My own brother, Aberforth, was prosecuted for practicing inappropriate charms on a goat. It was all over the papers, but did Aberforth hide?

Leonard: I’ve always been a little confused about this — why don’t Hindus eat beef?

“It’s ok,” he said, before Ron could get the words out. “Forget it.”
“No,” said Ron, “I shouldn’t’ve–”

Ron grinned nervously at him, and Harry grinned back.
Hermione burst into tears.
“There’s nothing to cry about!” Harry told her, bewildered.
