Having read the series more times than I care to admit, one of the
(many) curiosities I vacillate on is the occasional voice Harry seems
to hear at opportune moments. For example, when his instructor is
trying to overpower him with a spell, Harry's inner voice says, "Nope,
not gonna do that", or words to that effect, and Harry resists bending
as the students before him had done.
Sometimes, "The voice" impresses me as coming from his mother, other
times I'd swear I hear Dumbledore or Peter or even Voldemort in there,
giving Harry courage, or solutions to the problem at hand.
Has anyone in the group already analyzed this quirk? It seems that
knowing whichever consciousness is drifting around inside Harry would
be of great assistance in solving the whole Harry Potter riddle.
Scratch 'riddle'-- make that puzzle. <grin>
