''Anyway, being in Hufflepuff isn't all bad, we have our moments of excitement and achievement. Uh... last year, one of us was killed. That was exciting, and it's something we can all aspire towards. And in the meantime, WELCOME TO HUFFLEPUFF! Long live the badger of mediocrity.''

-> ''Well, now the great feast is over, it's my custom as head of house, to say a few words to those of you young wizards who have been sorted into the Noble house of Hufflepuff.''
-> ''Such as... sorry. I know how you must be feeling. You'll have just heard the sorting hat mention in his curiously insensitive song how Gryffindor is for the brave, Slytherin for the cunning, Ravenclaw for the wise, and Hufflepuff for... the rest. And I realize that to hear that and then almost immediately to find yourself sorted ''into'' Hufflepuff, well, it's not quite the ego boost one hopes for on one's first day of school.''
-> ''You are one of "the rest". The sorting hat has looked deep in your very soul and what it saw there evidently didn't impress. Oh, I'm aware that in the past the hat has in the past, occasionally described you as 'kind'. Yes, and I'm sure you also have lovely hair.''
-> ''Some of you may be wondering at the thinking of the school's decision to put all the appalling duffers into one house, call it "Hufflepuff", and give it the symbol of a badger. A little harsh, you may feel. You may even, who knows, be questioning the wisdom of entrusting the school's entire admissions procedure to a hat. These are not, alas, questions I can answer. All I can do is urge you to look on the bright side; at least you're not in Slytherin. Another curious decision of the school's there, to dedicate an entire house to those of the children in its care who are evil. Surely a recipe for trouble.''

->''"This may surprise people, but it is the truth...In many, many ways, Hufflepuff is my favourite House. Here's my reasoning, bear with me. (Again, I don't want to spoil things too much for people who haven't read the whole series, so I'm going to say what I'm about to say quite carefully). There comes a point in the final book where each House has the choice whether or not to rise to a certain challenge, and that's everyone in the House. The Slytherins, for reasons that are understandable, decide they'd rather not play. The Ravenclaws, some decide they will, some decide they won't. The Hufflepuffs, virtually to a person, stay, as do the Gryffindors. Now, the Gryffindors comprise a lot of foolhardy and show-offy people, that's just the way it is, I'm a Gryffindor, I'm allowed to say it. You know, there's bravery, and there's also showboating, and sometimes the two go together. The Hufflepuffs stayed for a different reason; they weren't trying to show off, they weren't being reckless, that's the essence of Hufflepuff House. Now my oldest child (my daughter, Jessica) said something very profound to me, not very many days ago, actually, she said to me --and she, by the way, was not sorted into Hufflepuff House-- but, she said to me, 'I think we should all want to be Hufflepuffs.' I can only say to you, that I would not be at all disappointed to be sorted into Hufflepuff House."''
