9. # Love
 Harry’s ability to surviveVoldemort’s killing
curse is a direct result of his mother’s love .
 Harry’s ability to love and be loved are the
key traits that distinguish from Voldemort
and ensure that he will never be seduced by
the dark arts.
 It’s also provides a support system of friends
thatVoldemort can never hope to match.

10. # Death
 Love and Death are major themes in J.K.
Rowling’s Harry Potter books.
 She herself has said in a recent interview in
TheTatler magazine that “My books are
largely about death.”
 At the very beginning of the story we hear
that Harry’s parents have died, and in due
course both we and Harry learn that they
were murdered.

11. # To Sum Up,
 Voldemort, in his ruthless, futile quest for
immortality, openly rejects his own humanity.
 And it is Harry’s acceptance of his mortality
that allows him to embrace his humanity and
to love.
 More then that, it makes it possible for Harry
to develop into a realized, virtuous aduit.
