Men, altså – Harry,” vedblev kæmpen og vendte sig bort fra den skræmte Dursley-familie.

Jeg ønsker dig en rigtig go’ fødselsdag. Jeg har en gave til dig.

Måske er jeg kommet til at sidde på den, men den smager sikkert lige så godt for det.”

Han fremdrog en lettere mast æske fra inderlommen af sin sorte overfrakke.

Harry åbnede den med rystende fingre og fandt en stor, klistret chokoladekage, hvorpå der stod med grøn glasur: Tillykke med fødselsdagen Harry.”

(Harry Potter og De Vises sten, J.K. Rowling)
