Harry's abilities

There's something about HARRY specifically.  Voldemort had a reason to kill
him, even though he was a helpless one-year-old child.
A passage from PS/SS, last chapter, when Harry wakes up in the infirmary and
talks to Dumbledore:

"Well... Voldemort said that he only killed my mother because she tried to
stop him from killing me. But why would he want to kill me in the first
place?'

Dumbledore sighed very deeply this time.

'Alas, the first thing you ask me, I cannot tell you. Not today. Not now.
You will know, one day... put it from your mind for now, Harry. When you are
older... I know you hate to hear this... when you are ready, you will know."
