Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows- first bog

“Oh, a friend! How true is that old saying, that the enjoyment of one is sweeter and more necessary than that of the elements of water and fire” – Michel de Montaigne

Friendship/companionship is an important aspect during the protagonists’ adventures in many books we have read, such as Gilgamesh and Monkey. Similarly, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows also emphasizes the importance of friendship in Harry’s journey to find and destroy Voldemort’s Horcruxes. When Harry has to face Voldemort’s attack as the Order tries to relocate him, his friends volunteer to be his duplicate in their attempt to deceive the evil forces. The death of Mad Eye Moody and the selfless act of his friends have allowed Harry to relocate himself safely. Just like what Dumbledore said, the difference between Harry and Voldemort is friendship, also his strength against Voldemort. Dumbledore’s statement proves to be true when Ron saves Harry from the locket and when Hermoine uses magic to help Harry escapes danger just as danger comes close to destroying him. Their companionship has provided Harry with the strength to continue his quest to destroy Voldemort.
