Minerva McGonagall is someone we all have learned to 爱情 and respect throughout the HP series.Also in the wizarding world she commands almost unanimous respect.

Here are some words 或者 actions 由 other characters that describe how they feel about her.


Oliver Wood
Bad news, Harry. I've just been to see Professor McGonagall about the Firebolt. She - er - got a bit shirty with me. Told me I'd got my priorities wrong. Seemed to think I cared 更多 about winning the Cup than I do about 你 staying alive. Just because I told her I didn't care if it threw 你 off, as long as 你 caught the Snitch on it first. Honestly, the way she was yelling at me ... you'd think I'd 说 something terrible.

Poppy Pomfrey
'She's not here, Potter,' 说 Madam Pomfrey sadly. 'She was transferred to St. Mungo's this morning. Four Stunning Spells straight to the chest at her age? It's a wonder they didn't kill her.'(OOTP)

'I don't wonder you're shocked, Potter,' 说 Madam Pomfrey, with a kind of fierce approval in her face. 'As if one of them could have Stunned Minerva McGonagall face-on 由 daylight! Cowardice, that's what it was ... despicable cowardice ... if I wasn't worried what would happen to 你 students without me, I'd resign in protest.'(OOTP)


Dolores Umbridge
'Aha! shrieked Professor Umbridge, pointing a stubby linger at McGonagall. 'Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Of course! That's what 你 want, isn't it, Minerva McGonagall? 你 want Cornelius 做傻事, 福吉 replaced 由 Albus Dumbledore! 你 think you'll be where I am, don't you: Senior Undersecretary to the Minister and Headmistress to boot!'

Rubeus Hagrid
(after 4 stunners hit her)'COWARDS!' bellowed Hagrid; his voice carried clearly to the 最佳, 返回页首 of the tower, and several lights flickered back on inside the castle. 'RUDDY COWARDS! HAVE SOME O' THAT-- AN' THAT--'
'Oh my--' gasped Hermione.
Hagrid took two massive swipes at his closest attackers; judging 由 their immediate collapse, they had been knocked cold.(OOTP)

Albus Dumbledore
'My dear Professor, surely a sensible person like yourself can call him 由 his name.'(PS)

'What happened?' 说 Dumbledore sharply, looking from 做傻事, 福吉 to Professor McGonagall. 'Why are 你 disturbing these people? Minerva, I'm surprised at 你 – I asked 你 to stand guard over Barty Crouch –'(GOF)

(refusing her help to fight the aurors) 'Oh yes he will, Minerva!' 说 Dumbledore sharply. 'Hogwarts needs you!'(OOTP)

Hermione Granger
(facing a boggart in DADA exam) 'P-P-Professor McGonagall! Hermione gasped, pointing into the trunk.Sh-she 说 I'd failed everything!'(POA)

(after Umbridge and aurors stun her)... but poor Professor McGonagall ... four Stunners straight in the chest and she's not exactly young, is she?'


Ronald Weasley
'Oh, I can't wait to see McGonagall inspected,' 说 Ron happily. 'Umbridge won't know what's hit her.'(OOTP)


Harry Potter
She had a very stern face and Harry's first thought was that she was not someone to cross.(PS)

Professor McGonagall had a way of making him [Harry] feel he must have done something wrong.(POA)

'I need to see Professor McGonagall,' gasped Harry, the breath tearing his lungs. 'Now ... it's urgent!'...'She's ... gone?' 说 Harry, shocked...The 钟, 贝尔 rang just outside the dormitory and he heard the usual distant rumbling of students starting to flood out into the corridors above and below him. He remained quite still, looking at Madam Pomfrey. Terror was rising inside him.

There was nobody left to tell. Dumbledore had gone, Hagrid had gone, but he had always expected Professor McGonagall to be there, irascible and inflexible, perhaps, but always dependably, solidly present ...(OOTP)

('Clearly, it was very important for 你 to talk to somebody. Was it Albus Dumbledore? 或者 the half-breed, Hagrid? I doubt it was Minerva McGonagall, I hear she is still too ill to talk to anyone.'Malfoy and a few of the other members of the Inquisitorial Squad laughed some 更多 at that.) Harry found he was so full of rage and hatred he was shaking.(OOTP)

Beneath the disbelief and anger, Harry head a little strain of pride in her voice, and affection for Minerva McGonagall gushed up inside him.(DH)

(after Amycus spat at her) Harry pulled the 披风, 斗篷 off himself, raised his wand, and said, "You shouldn't have done that.

As Amycus spun around, Harry shouted, "Crucio!"

(simply stating the reason why Harry Crucioed Amycus) "He spat at you"(DH)


Professor McGonagall moved faster than Harry could have believed.(DH)

The scream was the 更多 terrible because he had never expected 或者 dreamed that Professor McGonagall could make such a sound.(DH)
