Dumbledore knows what's in store for Harry since he's defeated a dark 
lord in his time.  I'm no expert, having only read the books a couple 
times, but Dumbledore survived and that gives me hope that Harry will 
too.

I'm just curious about any familial link between them.  It's obvious 
Dumbledore loves Harry as a son and the normal teenage rebellion 
against parents it shown in this book. Maybe it's just a guy thing 
but no one's ever mentioned the word love, that I can remember, 
except Dumbledore, saying he's acted as LV expects from those who 
love.

I have to say Dumbledore's confession to Harry brought tears to my 
eyes because it's obvious how much he loves and is proud of Harry.  

It the first book, LV offered to bring Harry's parents back or was he 
just referring to the fact that if he killed Harry, then he'd be with 
them?  Maybe if Harry defeats LV, those that LV killed will be 
restored?  Kind of like on Little Mermaid....
