I just picked up PS to read again- yes, I know I wonder if I will ever read 
anything but HP again- and on pg. 12 UK in the description of Albus 
Dumbledore

' His blue eyes were light, bright and sparkling behind half moon spectacles, 
and his nose was very long and crooked, as though it had been broken at least 
twice.'

PS is my least favourite of the books, and thus I don't read it as much as 
the others, but something occurred to me when I read this line. In GoF, JKR 
talks about Bagman's nose and how it looked as if it had been broken by a 
stray bludger- paraphrased here...

So, I guess what struck me is that perhaps this description of Dumbledore 
alludes to the fact that Albus played Quidditch as well. 

Just a thought,
Snuffles
"All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty 
recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the 
dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with 
open eyes, to make it possible. This I did."  T.E. Lawrence- Seven Pillars of 
Wisdom
