Its unlikely to be Neville's prophecy anyway as the Dark Lord, as far 
as we know, didn't 'mark' Neville. Dumbledore seemed to think that 
Harry's scar is the mark that distinguished Harry as the baby 
Trelawney was referring to. (That and perhaps the fact that he was 
the boy who lived). 

I have been thinking about the prophecy a lot lately. When reading 
the book for the first time I found it to be rather anti-climatic, 
but now that I have stopped crying over Sirius I am starting to think 
about it more clearly. 

Does the 'kill or be killed' portion mean that Harry cannot be killed 
by anyone other than Voldemort? Could he duel with a death eater and 
survive simply because they are not fated to be the one to kill him?  
Could he jump off the astronomy tower and come off without a scratch 
because there is only one way he can die unless Voldemort himself is 
dead? 

In a practical sense, I wonder whether knowing and understanding his 
prophecy will make Harry even more reckless? He knows now that there 
is only one way he can die, so becomes blind to other risks.
