As Dr. David Banner used to say (just before he turned into the Incredible
Hulk), "Don't make me angry! You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."

If the Big V wants to defeat Harry, he better learn that it's not a
good idea to make Harry angry, or to make him feel ANY very strong
emotion. That's when that wellspring of power seems to bubble to the
surface in Harry. When he's in the grip of strong emotions, he's able to
perform magic without a wand OR incantation. Examples: When he released
the snake in the zoo in Book 1, Dudley had just knocked him to the
floor and Harry managed to make the glass cage vanish. When Harry blew
up Aunt Marge and caused the locked cupboard in the hall to burst open
as he was heading toward it. Also, making his hair grow back overnight,
turning his teacher's wig blue, and either levitating or apparating to
the roof of the school when being chased by Dudley's gang -- all done
without wand or words.
