Sorcererens sten flyttades till Hogwarts samtidigt som Harry tog inträde i skolan. Alla saker började hända samma år.
Är det tillfälligt att Voldemort blev aktiv samtidigt Harry gick med i Hogwarts?
Den mörka Herren blev bara aktiv igen när Quirrell korsade sin väg och gav honom den möjlighet som han behövde återvända.
“Then … four years ago … the means for my return seemed assured. A wizard – young, foolish and gullible – wandered across my path in the forest I had made my home. Oh, he seemed the very chance I had been dreaming of … for he was a teacher at Dumbledore’s school … he was easy to bend to my will … he brought me back to this country, and after a while, I took possession of his body, to supervise him closely as he carried out my orders. But my plan failed. I did not manage to steal the Philosopher’s Stone. I was not to be assured immortal life. I was thwarted … thwarted, once again, by Harry Potter …”

Innan dess hade den mörka Herren väntat på att en av Death Eaters skulle hitta honom eller någon annan chans att återvända.
“I remember only forcing myself, sleeplessly, endlessly, second by second, to exist … I settled in a faraway place, in a forest, and I waited … surely, one of my faithful Death Eaters would try and find me … one of them would come and perform the magic I could not, to restore me to a body … but I waited in vain …’
The shiver ran once more around the circle of listening Death Eaters. Voldemort let the silence spiral horribly before continuing. ‘Only one power remained to me. I could possess the bodies of others. But I dared not go where other humans were plentiful, for I knew that the Aurors were still abroad and searching for me. I sometimes inhabited animals – snakes, of course, being my preference – but I was little better off inside them than as pure spirit, for their bodies were ill-adapted to perform magic … and my possession of them shortened their lives; none of them lasted long …”

Det var bara en slump att Quirrell korsade sin väg samma år som Harry började på Hogwarts - hans val att återvända vid den tiden var uteslutande baserat på att ha Quirrell och hade ingenting att göra med Harry.
