Some favorite Harry moments:

Harry just shaking his head when Molly attacks his hair with a wet
comb and asks desperately "doesn't it ever lie flat?"

To Draco on the Hogwarts Express, when Draco offers his help in
defining the wrong sort of Wizarding families: "I think I can tell who
the wrong sort are for myself".

Harry in CoS, after his arm gets broken in Quidditch. To Colin: "I
don't want a photo of this". To Lockhart trying to fix his arm: "I'll
keep it that way, thanks
"

Harry's speech to Ron and Hermione in SS/PS: "Losing points doesn't
matter anymore, can't you see? D'you think Voldemort will leave you
and your families alone if Gryffindor win the House Cup?"

Harry about Rita Skitter: "She can't keep writing about what a tragic
little hero I am, it'll get boring
 She should've interviewed Snape.
He'd give her the goods on me any day." 

(A favorite trio moment) In the Shrieking Shack -- Harry, Hermione and
Ron (with his leg broken!) all expelliarmusing Snape simultaneously
without consulting each other. In addition to the satisfying result I
think it just shows what a great team they have become.

Harry coming up with the idea to assign Kreacher and Dobby to tail
Draco. Sometimes his thinking surprises me. Also Harry after
Dumbledore refuses to take action about Draco, agreeing to go
Horcrux-hunting but setting Ron and Hermione as a second line of
defense without Dumbledore's knowledge. Even in hindsight it is
difficult to think how he could have handled the situation better, and
that was right after he had discovered about Dumbledore hiding Snape's
involvement in his parents' death.

Harry in Patronus lessons in PoA, realizing that he's failing because
he half wants to keep hearing his parents' voices. "They're dead," he
told himself sternly. "They're dead and listening to echoes of them
won't bring them back. You'd better get a grip on yourself if you want
that Quidditch Cup."  

Harry thinking privately that the only way he'd be visiting Myrtle's
bathroom again is if every other toilet in the castle gets blocked.

"Wangoballwime?"


Neri, who thinks that a thread of favorite Ron moments would be even
funnier.
