The question of time?

[Tinkerbell]

It has long been my belief that 'time' has a really important role within the Septology as a whole, and wanted to try and gather together as many of the references to time as possible, in order to discuss and dissect this!

So here are some for starters:

In GoF there are several references to the clocks being bewitched when Harry approaches the tasks, as they seem to be coming around quicker than he would like - "Time was behaving in a more peculiar fashion than ever..."

In OotP, in explaining Legilimency and Occlumency to Harry, Snape says - "Time and space matter in magic, Potter..."

So guys, get talking!!!
