Becky:
The prophecy itself was from the divination professor (sorry
can't spell her name to save my life).  She did talk about 2
boys born at the same time with the potential of becoming the
one to fulfill the prophecy.  Yes, Neville was the other boy.
But if you remember the Prisoner of Askaban, McGonagall talked
about Lily and James being marked for death.  Meaning that
Voldemort was going after them specifically with the intent to
kill them and their son.  One of the reasons Voldmort was after
the Potters was because Snape overheard the prophecy and told
him.  Lily protected Harry by sacrificing herself to save him.

As for one can not live peacefully while the other still lives
is referring to the last battle that must take place between
Harry and Voldemort.  In this battle one must kill the other
and determine the fate of the wizarding world.
