Our
"Lead in Literature" quote this issue comes from Harry Potter and the Goblet
of Fire, the fourth Harry Potter book by J.K Rowling . One of several references to

school ball with him, only to discover that she's already going with his rival, and is
genuinely sorry.
"[After
Harry puts the question] It was odd; a moment before, his insides had been writhing like
snakes, but suddenly he didn’t seem to have any insides at all…
"[After her reply] His insides
had come back again. It felt as though they had been filled with lead in their absence.
