Newt Scamander: Dumbledore, why can't you go?
Albus Dumbledore: I can't move against Grindelwald. It has to be you.
Albus Dumbledore: Do you know why I admire you, Newt? You do not seek power. You simply ask, "Is a thing... right?"
Leta Lestrange: You're too good, Newt. You never met a monster you couldn't love.
Gellert Grindelwald: Their arrogance is a key to our victory.
Albus Dumbledore: The time's coming, Newt... when you're going to have to pick a side.
Yusuf Kama: The wizarding and non-wizarding worlds have been at peace for over a century. Grindelwald wants to see that peace destroyed.
Jacob Kowalski: Are you going somewhere?
Newt Scamander: No. We're going somewhere.
Jacob Kowalski: Genius.
Torquil Travers: There's a rumor that Newt Scamander is headed to Paris. I know he's working under your orders. What do you have to say for yourself, Dumbledore?
Albus Dumbledore: If you'd ever had the pleasure to teach him, you'd know Newt is not a great follower of orders.
Gellert Grindelwald: Magic blooms... only in rare souls. Still, we must skulk in shadows. But the old ways serve us no longer.
Albus Dumbledore: Muggles are not lesser. Not disposable.
Gellert Grindelwald: My brothers... my sisters. The clock is ticking faster. My dream, we who live, for truth, for love. The moment has come, to take our rightful place... in the world, where we wizards... are free. Join me... or die.
Answer: Newt and Tina were in the archive room illegally. When Leta, who is a Ministry employee, happened to discover them there, she chose to help them escape, which was breaking the law.
