Harry Potter Saved My Life

3.5: "Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it”

Today’s Quotefest focuses on something Dumbledore says to Harry at the end of The Goblet of Fire after his horrific experience in the graveyard, being forced to watch Voldemort come back to human (ish) form.

“Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it” Dumbledore says to Sirius’ protests.

I am exploring this quote as a metaphor for addiction in this episode.
