     I love this idea. I totally bet it's in book 7. I think 
forgiveness is more potent against evil than any other type 
of "love". And it fits perfectly with everything that Dumbledore has 
said, not to mention the prophecy: "mark him as his equal" - the 
Dark Lord thinking our boy is Slytherinesque, desiring power above 
all else; "but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not" - that 
would be the capacity to even love or forgive those who had hurt 
him. Not to mention that Neville could come in here too, because he 
has less reason to forgive Voldemort than anybody.
    I think everyone will *think* the power will lie in Harry's love 
for his parents, when actually it will lie in the far less likely 
love for Voldemort.
