About This Quote

Never try to understand the students. They hate it. They would much rather be tragically misunderstood, wallow in self-pity, stew in their own —”“That’s enough, Phineas,” said Dumbledore. It is easy to try to understand people when they are in one of their moods or when they are in a certain situation, but they will always feel that you don’t understand them and it will make them even more angry and frustrated. Sometimes they don’t even like you and can see you as a threat.
