just bumming around on tvtropes when I come across this:

“When Harry is attacked by Quirrel/Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest and is rescued by Firenze, the other centaurs object, citing “the stars.” Even Firenze himself mentions to Harry that he hopes that he and his fellow centaurs have been misreading them. Considering the fact that centaurs are particularly gifted at astrology, they’re probably seeing Harry getting killed by Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest at the end of Book 7, and don’t want to interfere with destiny.”

I NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF THAT OMG.
