Dòng 21:
Ron already has the family that Harry lacks, therefore his desires are obviously quite different. Feeling unremarkable and always overshadowed by his talented older brothers, when Ron peers into the Mirror, he sees only himself, as Quidditch captain and Head Boy, standing completely on his own accomplishments. Unlike Harry, however, he will not feel the need to continually return and stare at the Mirror's reflection, partially fearing being caught, but also resigned to knowing what it is he wants, but believing he can never attain it.
 
Harry and Dumbledore's relationship is also established in this scene, and until now there has been no significant interaction between them since Dumbledore left baby Harry on the Dursleys' door step ten years earlier. Not only has Dumbledore remained distant in the story until now, but he has been portrayed as being rather enigmatic and eccentric. Harry even considered that he might be a touch mad. Dumbledore is truly an enigma, and even by wizardWizard standards, he seems odd. It is doubtful that he has ever had much direct interaction with students, being a lofty and somewhat aloof authoritarian figure, and it has been unclear just what his role will be in the book. He is, however, a kind, gentle, and humorous man, and rather than reprimand Harry, Dumbledore steps beyond his Headmaster role to gently guide Harry with helpful, almost fatherly, advice, understanding that Harry's needs are unique among the students. Their relationship will likely continue to grow beyond student and teacher from here on.
 
Of Note: The mirror's entire inscription reads, "Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi". When those words are read backwards, the inscription is: "I show not your face but your heart's desire". We can safely expect that the Mirror of Erised will play a role elsewhere in the book, though exactly what that role will be, and how the Mirror's peculiar function will be important, it is too early to tell.
