In the Edinburgh festival interview, Rowling states that she was very careful about how she worded the prophesy... and if this is true then it is obvious why Dumbledore did not kill Voldemort in book 5, and explains (well a little bit) why Voldemort survived the night he tried to kill Harry. If Voldemort dies, then so does Harry. According to her prophesy
" neither can live while the other survives"
That was the direct quote.... so it could be taken to meant that if one is alive then they must both be alive.... I guess this means Harry dies in book 7 in order to save everyone. It makes sense, Dumblesore talked about death being the next adventure and he would be with his real family (Parents and Sirius). Plus, the end of C.S.Lewis's Narnia cronicles had them all in heaven as the final adventure... and I remember reading on here that Lewis was one of Rowling's favorite authors and someone she modeled her writing off of.
This is not to say that if Harry dies, I will be happy because I love the character (and I have always been a Harry/Hermione shipper

I don't argue the theory or the quote. I just want to state that when Dumbledore was telling Harry this, he agreed with him that in the end, one of them has to die. I don't think Dumbledore would tell Harry that he would have to die but why not tell the truth? Maybe I'm just being stupid but I don't know what to think anymore. *sigh* I wish the next book would come out already.
