I have known, for some time now, that you are the better man
"What are you talking about?" asked Harry, startled by Dumbledore's tone, by the sudden tears in his eyes
"The Hallows, the Hallows," murmured Dumbledore"A desperate man's dream!"
"But they're real!"
"Real, and dangerous, and a lure for fools," said Dumbledore"And I was such a foolBut you know, don't you? I have no secrets from you anymore
"What do I know?"
Dumbledore turned his whole body to face Harry, and tears still sparkled in the brilliantly blue eyes
"Master of death, Harry, master of Death! Was I better, ultimately, than Voldemort?"
"Of course you were," said Harry"Of course - how can you ask that? You never killed if you could avoid jumbo chanel flap bag it!"
"True, true," said Dumbledore, and he was like a child seeking reassurance"Yet I too sought a way to conquer death, Harry
"Not the way he did," said HarryAfter all his anger at Dumbledore, how odd it was to sit here, beneath the high, vaulted ceiling, and defend Dumbledore from himself"Hallows, not Horcruxes
"Hallows," murmured Dumbledore, "not HorcruxesThe creature behind them whimpered, but Harry no longer looked around
"Grindelwald was looking for them too?" he asked
Dumbledore closed his eyes for a moment and nodded
"It was the thing, above all, that drew us together," he said quietly"Two clever, arrogant boys with a shared obsessionHe wanted to come to Godric's Hollow, as I am sure you have guessed, classic chanel handbag because of the grave of Ignotus PeverellHe wanted to explore the place the third brother had died
"So it's true?" asked Harry"All of it? The Peverell brothers -"
"\a151were the three brothers of the tale," said Dumbledore, noddingWhether they met Death on a lonely road I think it more likely that the
Peverell brothers were simply gifted, dangerous wizards who succeeded in creating those powerful objectsThe story of them being Death's own Hallows seems to me the sort of legend that might have sprung up around such creations
"The Cloak, as you know now, traveled down through the ages, father to son, mother to daughter, right down to Ignotus's last living descendant, who was born, as Ignotus was, in the village of tiffany diamond Godric's Hollow
Dumbledore smiled at HarryYou have guessed,, I know, why the Cloak was in my possession on the night your parents diedJames had showed it to me just a few days previouslyIt explained much of his undetected wrongdoing at school! I could hardly believe what I was seeingI asked to borrow it, to examine itI had long since given up my dream of uniting the Hallows, but I could not resist, could not help taking a closer lookIt was a Cloak the likes of which I had never seen, immensely old, perfect in every respect and then your father died, and I had two Hallows at last, all to myself!"
His tone was unbearably bitter
"The Cloak wouldn't have helped them survive, though," Harry said quickly"Voldemort knew black fendi spy bag where my mum and dad wereThe Cloak couldn't have made them curse-proof
"true," sighed Dumbledore
Harry waited, but Dumbledore did not speak, so he prompted him
"So you'd given up looking for the Hallows when you saw the Cloak?"
"Oh yes," said Dumbledore faintlyIt seemed that he forced himself to meet Harry's eyes"You know what happenedYou cannot despise me more than I despise myself
"But I don't despise you -"
"Then you should," said DumbledoreHe drew a deep breath"You know the secret of my sister's ill health, what those Muggles did, what she becameYou know how my poor father sought revenge, and paid the price, died In AzkabanYou know how my mother gave up her own life to care for Ariana
