The Rebellion Begins
Even though we've got a fight ahead of us, we've got one thing that Voldemort doesn't have. Something worth fighting for.
[Harry Potter]
I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry.
You're not a bad
person.
You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to.
Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters.
We've
all got both light and dark inside us.
What matters is the part we
choose to act on.
That's who we really are.
[Sirius Black]
Fudge isn't in his right mind.
It's been twisted and warped by fear.
Now fear makes people do terrible things, Harry.
The last time Voldemort
gained power he almost destroyed everything we hold most dear.
Now he's
returned,
and I'm afraid the Minister will do almost anything to avoid
facing that terrifying truth.
[Remus Lupin]
[Sirius Black]: If anyone's got a right to know it's Harry.
If it wasn't for him we
wouldn't even know Voldemort was back!
He's not a child, Molly!
[Mrs. Weasley]: He's not an adult either!
He's not James, Sirius.
[Sirius Black]: He's not your son.
[Mrs. Weasley]: He's as good as! Who else as he got?
[Sirius Black]: He's got me!
[Severus Snape]: It appears there is a connection between the Dark Lord's mind and your
own.
Whether he is, as yet, aware of this connection is for the moment
unclear.
Pray he remains ignorant.
[Harry Potter]: You mean if he knows about it then, he'll be able to read my mind.
[Severus Snape]: Read it, control it, unhinge it.
In the past it was often the Dark
Lord's pleasure to invade the minds of his victims,
creating visions
designed to torture them into madness.
Only after extracting the last
exquisite ounce of agony,
only when he had them litterly begging for
death would he finally... kill them.
Used properly, the power of
Occlumency will help shield you from access or influence.
In these
lessons I will attempt to penetrate your mind.
You will attempt to
resist.
Prepare yourself!
Legillimens!
[Luna Lovegood, to Harry Potter]: Is it true you can produce a patronus charm?
[Hermione Granger]: Yes. I've seen it.
[Dean Thomas]: Blimey, Harry!
I didn't know you could do that!
[Neville Longbottom]: And he killed a basilisk, with the sword in Dumbledore's office.
[Ginny Weasley]: It's true.
[Ron Weasley]: Third year he fought off about a hundred dementors at once.
[Hermione Granger]: And last year he really did fight off You-Know-Who in the flesh.
[Harry Potter]: Wait... look, it all sounds great when you say it like that.
But the
truth is most of that was just luck.
I didn't know what I was doing half
the time, I nearly always had help...
[Hermione Granger]: He's just being modest.
[Harry Potter]: No, Hermione, I'm not.
Facing this stuff in real life is not like
school.
In school, if you make a mistake you can just try again
tomorrow,
but out there, when you're a second away from being murdered
or watching a friend die right before your eyes...
you don't know what
that's like.
[Hermione Granger]: You're right, Harry, we don't.
That's why we need your help.
Because if we're having any chance against beating... Voldemort.
[Neville Longbottom]: Fourteen years ago,
a Death Eater named Bellatrix Lestrange used the
Crutiatus Curse on my parents.
She tortured them for information, but
they never gave in.
I'm quite proud to be their son.
But I'm not sure
I'm ready for everyone to know just yet.
[Harry Potter]: We're going to make them proud, Neville.
That's a promise.
[Harry Potter]: The prophecy said neither one can live while the other one survives.
It
means one of us is going to have to kill the other, in the end.
[Albus Dombledore]: Yes.
[Harry Potter]: Why didn't you tell me?
[Albus Dombledore]: For the same reason you tried to save Sirius.
For the same reason your
friends saved you.
After all these years, after all you've suffered, I
didn't want to cause you any more pain.
I cared too much about you.
