Katrina again:
OK, but -as Geoff pointed out in #85494 - there's still no evidence
that *Harry* killed Quirrell. It could have been Dumbledore. It
could have been the shock of Voldemort leaving his body, for that
matter. It could have been the Unicorn blood catching up with him,
for all we know.
My suspicion is that the reason Quirrell's death is not on Harry's
conscience is because it has never occurred to him that he might
have been the cause.
Just keeping things lively.
