I think the one that stands out as my favorite moment from Harry in
the series, and sets a tone that lasts throughout the books so far is
in Harry's first potions class.

I quote:
      "I don't know," said Harry quietly. "I think Hermione does,
though, why don't you try her?"

It shows Snape for the great bullying ass that he is, and eliminates
any real retort. Rather than continue the unwarranted attack, he
provides the information and takes a point from Gryffindor. (Yes I can
hear the spluttering of Snape lovers from here-but Harry got the
majority of what he wanted. The attack ceased and the first potions
lesson actually began.)More to the point, it shows Harry refusing to
be cowed under by a bully, something that recurs through the series.

My # 2 moment is in the DoM when he taunts Bellatrix and the rest of
the DE's. I shall be very cross if that scene has met the hatchet in
the OOTP movie, because it is probably my favorite scene of that
entire book.

Those are my favorites right now. I reserve the right for that to change.

Charles, who reads the books because he likes *Harry* not *Snivellus*,
and loves this thread!
