Pippin:
Are you forgetting the dream that Harry had his first night?

"He was wearing Professor Quirrell's turban, which kept 
talking to him, telling him he must transfer to Slytherin at
once, because it was his destiny. Harry told the turban he
didn't want to be in Slytherin; it got heavier and heavier;
he tried to pull it off but it tightened painfully--and there
was Malfoy, laughing at him as he struggled with it--
then Malfoy turned into the hook-nosed teacher, Snape,
whose laugh became high and cold--there was a burst of
green light and Harry woke, sweating and shaking."
PS/SS ch 7

The next day Harry didn't remember the dream -- but
we know that in the Potterverse your subconscious never
forgets anything. However open-minded Harry meant to
be, his subconscious had already identified Snape with
Malfoy, Voldemort and associated them all with cliches 
about people  with hooked-noses who try to seduce you 
to the dark side.

Pippin:
Only sociopaths have no guilt feelings. Are you now
claiming that Snape is one of them?
