"You keep saying and saying that, Malfoy. [...] Like it means something."
"Because it does!" Draco got in Potter's face, if that was the only way to make him see him for once.

You. Potter, you're supposed to be good and kind and do the right thing and not look down on people, that's your whole thing, isn't it, that's what makes you important! That's what makes you different from people like my father! My father was a Death Eater, you worthless fool, and he looks down on that girl. You shouldn't be anything like him.”
